What people describe when they call

  • Fresh food side drifting into the fifties while the freezer stays cold
  • Compressor running on and never resting between cycles
  • Water collecting beneath the crisper drawers
  • Door gasket gone stiff in the dry air and no longer pulling shut

What it usually is On a two-compressor built-in this set almost always sits on the fresh-food circuit: evaporator fan, defrost heater or thermistor, a blocked drain, or a condenser packed with lint and cottonwood seed. The freezer staying cold is the useful clue, not a contradiction.

On the visit itself

  1. Cabinet and evaporator temperatures logged in both compartments before anything is dismantled
  2. Fresh-food evaporator fan tested for draw, and the defrost heater and thermistor metered on that circuit
  3. Condenser pulled clear of lint and seed, condenser fan checked for free rotation
  4. Drain trough and tube flushed, then the door gasket checked for closing force along its whole run

What it costs

The six bands a quote comes from

Once the readings are in, a refrigerator repair lands in one of these six. You are told which band it is, and the firm number inside it, before anything is opened up or ordered.

Service call

Flat $89 service call covering the visit and full diagnosis, credited against the repair once you approve it.

The repair itself is one firm number from inside the relevant band, agreed with you before any work starts. Approve it and the service call comes off the total; decline it and the visit is the whole of what you have paid.

These are ranges, not starting prices. What moves a job inside its band is the part itself and how far the cabinet has to come out of its joinery. For scale, a comparable built-in replacement, before installation and cabinetry work, runs $12,600–$23,120 — which is the comparison worth making before you decide either way.

  • Twenties Tudor in Park Hill, and the built-in is boxed into original cabinetry, so I expected scratched paint the moment anyone moved it. He rolled it out on boards, cleaned a condenser packed solid with cottonwood fluff, and it cycles properly again.

  • Undercounter unit in a third-floor condo, service elevator only, and I assumed nobody would bother. He came the next morning. Seized compressor relay plus a choked condenser, one trip.

  • Water kept collecting under the crisper drawers of our column. Plugged drain, and a gasket gone stiff from the dry winter air. Both dealt with in one visit, though booking took the best part of a week.
