Fridge repair specialists across Cape Town

From a fridge not cooling in Durbanville to a commercial freezer breakdown in Stellenbosch, we have you covered

Fridge Not Cooling in Cape Town

A fridge running but not cooling is a food safety issue that needs same day attention. Common causes include a refrigerant leak, blocked condenser coil, failing evaporator fan or thermostat fault. We diagnose the root cause on site and fix it in a single visit for all brands.

Fridge Regassing Cape Town

If your fridge is running but not getting cold, a gas leak is often the cause. We are certified to handle R600a, R134a and R410A refrigerants. We locate and seal the leak first, then recharge the system to the correct pressure. Gas topping without fixing the leak is money wasted.

Compressor Repairs and Replacement

Clicking sounds at startup, silence where the fridge should be running or persistent warm temperatures all point to a compressor circuit fault. We test the relay, overload protector and control board before condemning the compressor, ensuring you pay only for what is actually faulty.

Freezer Frost and Defrost Faults

Excessive frost in the freezer is a sign the automatic defrost system has failed. We strip the freezer lining, identify the defective heater, thermostat or control board and replace it precisely. We run a manual defrost cycle before reassembling to confirm the repair is complete.

Commercial Fridge Repairs Cape Town

A commercial fridge breakdown costs businesses in lost stock and disrupted service. We repair display fridges, back bar coolers, under counter units and upright cabinets for restaurants, guesthouses, wine estates and retailers. Priority scheduling available for urgent commercial callouts.

Fridge Water Leaks and Ice Maker Faults

Water under or inside the fridge usually traces to a blocked defrost drain, cracked drain pan, worn door seal or faulty water inlet valve. We find the source on site, clear blockages and replace failed components. Ice maker faults on dispenser models are also fully covered.
