A warm refrigerator is not a problem you can wait out. Our fridge repair in Brampton covers the failures that spoil food and run up your hydro bill, and we arrive ready to fix them on the visit. Below are the calls we get most often, the cause behind each one, and the repair we handle for you. Every job is done by a licensed and insured technician.
Not cooling
When your fridge is running but staying warm, the cause is usually restricted airflow or a part that has stopped doing its job. Dirty condenser coils choke the cooling system and are one of the most common reasons a fridge loses its cold. A failed condenser fan or evaporator fan will do the same, and a worn start relay can stop the compressor from kicking on at all. Deeper failures point to the sealed system itself. We test each of these, pinpoint the fault, and repair or replace the failed part so your fridge holds temperature again.
Leaking water inside and from the bottom
Water where it should not be almost always traces back to drainage. If you find it pooling inside the fridge or freezer, a clogged defrost drain is the usual culprit, since it backs up and overflows once it freezes solid. A leak near the front bottom or across your kitchen floor can also come from a failing water inlet valve that no longer seals. We clear the defrost drain and replace a faulty inlet valve, then check that the water stays where it belongs.
Running constantly
A fridge that never shuts off is working too hard to hold its temperature, and it is quietly costing you money. Dirty condenser coils and a worn door gasket are the common causes, because both force the compressor to run far longer than it should. A gasket that no longer seals lets cold air escape every hour of the day. We clean the coils and replace a gasket that has lost its grip, so your fridge cycles normally instead of running around the clock.
Noisy or not cold enough
Buzzing, humming, or a fridge that cools but never gets cold enough usually comes back to a fan or a defrost fault. A struggling evaporator fan cuts the flow of cold air into the fresh food section, so the fridge feels warm even while the freezer works. A failing condenser fan gets louder as it wears out. If frost builds up while the fridge turns warm, a defrost heater or defrost thermostat has often quit. We locate the noisy or failed part and replace it.
When the fridge runs but the freezer does not
Sometimes the fresh food side stays cold while the freezer quits, or the freezer keeps working while the fridge turns warm. When it is only the freezer that has failed, that is a different repair with its own likely causes, and our page on freezer repair in Brampton walks through how we handle it. Samsung fridge repair is one of our most common calls across the city, though we work on every major brand and diagnose each one the same careful way.
Older homes around Brampton often run a fridge for years past its warranty, and most of these faults are worth repairing rather than replacing. If a repair visit turns up a second appliance acting up, ask us about dishwasher repair in Brampton while we are there.

When your fridge stops cooling, call for trusted, affordable, licensed and insured service and we will get it cold again.
My fridge is running but not cooling. What is wrong?
This usually points to dirty condenser coils, a failed fan, or a worn start relay that is not starting the compressor. It can also be the sealed system. Call us and we will test it and repair the cause.
Why is there water pooling inside my refrigerator or on the floor?
A clogged defrost drain is the most common reason water backs up inside, while a leak near the bottom can come from a failing water inlet valve. We clear the drain and replace the valve so the leak stops.
My ice maker stopped working but the fridge is still cold. Can you fix it?
Yes. An ice maker that quits while the fridge stays cold almost always has a water line or inlet valve problem. We trace the water supply and repair it on all major brands.
My fridge runs all the time and never shuts off. Is that a problem?
It is, and it raises your hydro bill. Dirty condenser coils and a worn door gasket usually force the compressor to run nonstop. We clean the coils and replace the gasket so it cycles normally.
Do you repair Samsung and other brand refrigerators in Brampton?
Yes. We service Samsung, Frigidaire, LG, KitchenAid, and Whirlpool fridges, along with other major brands. Every repair is handled by a licensed and insured technician.
My fridge is warm but the freezer still works. What could it be?
That often means an evaporator fan or a defrost fault is cutting cold air to the fresh food side. If only the freezer has failed, see our freezer repair page. Call us and we will diagnose it.
