Refrigerator Repair Tempe, AZ

Most no-cool calls aren't a dead compressor. Nine times out of ten it's the start relay (the little switch that kicks the compressor on), the condenser fan motor, or coils packed solid with dust. Arizona is hard on refrigerators. At 110 to 115 degrees the compressor barely gets a rest, and a unit in the garage is working in heat it was never built for.

• Can you fix my refrigerator the same day in Tempe?

  Often, yes, especially if you catch us in the morning. Call (480) 791-8858 and ask what the day looks like. We would rather tell you it is tomorrow than have you wait in all afternoon for nothing.

• Is there anything I can check before I call you out?

  Pull it out from the wall and look at the coils on the back or underneath. If they're caked with dust, vacuum them and give it 24 hours. That alone fixes a fair number of the calls we get. If that does not sort it, then call (480) 791-8858 and we will come and look at it properly.

• How much does refrigerator repair cost in Tempe?

  Same anywhere we go, Tempe included. Figure $50 to $100 for the diagnostic call and $150 to $600 for a typical repair with parts. You get a flat rate before we start, and that is the number you pay.

• Should I repair this refrigerator or just replace it?

  Two questions decide it: how old is it, and what does the fix cost. Past halfway through its life, with a repair over half the price of new, and you are better off replacing. Young machine, one failed part, fix it every time. Our tech will tell you which one you have got, including when the honest answer is that you should not spend the money with us.
