Refrigerator Repair in Springfield, VA

• Refrigerator Not Cooling?

  A refrigerator that is warm in the fresh-food section, or never quite gets cold enough, is the most common call we receive. The cause can be as simple as a blocked vent or a worn door gasket, or it can involve the evaporator fan, the defrost system, the thermostat, the control board or the sealed system.

  • Fresh-food section warm, freezer still cold
  • Both compartments warming up
  • Temperature keeps drifting
  • Food spoiling before its date

• Refrigerator Leaking Water?

  Water under or inside the refrigerator usually points to a frozen or blocked defrost drain, a cracked drain pan, a loose water-line fitting or a fault in the ice-maker supply. We trace the leak to its source rather than treating the symptom.

  • Puddle on the kitchen floor
  • Water pooling under the crisper drawers
  • Sheet of ice on the freezer floor

• Refrigerator Making Loud Noises?

  Buzzing, rattling, clicking and grinding each tell a different story. A fan blade hitting ice, a worn evaporator or condenser fan motor, a failing compressor start relay or a vibrating drain pan all sound different, and our technicians know how to tell them apart.

  • Loud humming from the back
  • Clicking that repeats every few minutes
  • Grinding or scraping from the freezer

• Freezer Cold but Refrigerator Warm?

  When the freezer works but the fresh-food section doesn’t, cold air isn’t moving between the two compartments. The evaporator fan, the damper control, the defrost heater or thermostat, or a heavy frost build-up on the evaporator coil are the usual suspects.

  • Freezer frosty, fridge warm
  • Weak or no airflow from the vents
  • Frost pattern on the back wall of the freezer

• Refrigerator Freezing Food?

  Lettuce turning to ice and milk freezing on the top shelf point to a temperature-control problem. A faulty thermistor or thermostat, a damper stuck open, a control-board fault or a leaking door seal that keeps the compressor running can all over-cool the fresh-food section.

• Ice Maker Not Working?

  Ice makers stop for many reasons: a frozen fill tube, a failed water inlet valve, a jammed ejector arm, low water pressure, a clogged filter or a faulty ice-maker module. We check the water path from the shut-off valve to the tray so the repair addresses the real cause.

  • No ice at all
  • Small, hollow or misshapen cubes
  • Water dispenser slow or not working

• Refrigerator Running Constantly?

  A refrigerator that never cycles off is working too hard. Dirty condenser coils, a failing condenser fan, a worn door gasket, a defrost problem or a low refrigerant charge can keep the compressor running, raising your electricity bill and shortening the appliance’s life.
