Why your refrigerator is not cooling

The first things owners spot when a refrigerator starts not cooling: unit runs but temperature stays warm — usually a compressor, condenser, or refrigerant issue. Across the brands we service, it's most often worn door gaskets bleeding cold air. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • Defrost fault icing over the evaporator
  • Faulty temperature control board
  • Refrigerant leak in the sealed system

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the easy cause: confirm the refrigerator has power, the thermostat is actually set cold, and the condenser coils or vents aren't blocked by dust or stored items. Also, listen for the compressor running at all, and make sure nothing is blocking airflow around the back or bottom vents. Beyond that, the cause is almost always a failed compressor or a refrigerant leak in the sealed system, and handling refrigerant legally requires an experienced technician — which is where DIY stops.

How we fix it

An experienced tech tests the refrigerator systematically and pinpoints what's actually causing the not cooling. Genuine OEM parts for all major refrigerator brands ride on the truck, so the fix usually happens the same day. The quote is flat, approved before we start, and every repair carries our warranty.

Two other shops couldn't fit us in — these guys fixed the refrigerator the same day. No runaround — they told me honestly what it needed and fixed just that.

Called late at night and a tech was here by mid-morning to look at the refrigerator. Clean, on-time, and they took the old part with them. Would call again.

No waiting around — the refrigerator was diagnosed within an hour of the tech arriving. Fair price, no surprise fees, and the refrigerator has worked perfectly since.
