Common causes and what they mean
| Cause | What it means |
|---|---|
| Defrost heater or thermostat failure | Frost accumulates until airflow is blocked entirely — the single most common freezer fault we see. |
| Worn or torn door gasket | Constant warm-air infiltration causes ice buildup around the door frame. |
| Failed start relay or capacitor | The compressor cannot start under load, so the unit hums but never cools. |
| Refrigerant leak | Requires certified handling. We locate, repair and recharge to manufacturer spec. |
| Blocked drain line | Meltwater backs up and refreezes at the bottom of the cabinet. |
Types we service
- Chest and upright freezers
- Built-in freezer columns
- Under-counter and drawer freezers
- Garage-rated and outdoor units
- Commercial reach-in freezers
Brands we service for freezer repair
Before you book: have the brand and model number ready if you can find it — usually on a sticker inside the door, behind a drawer or on the rear panel. It lets us bring the right part on the first visit rather than the second.
