Fridge-freezer repair · Durban
We repair fridge-freezer combinations in Durban when one compartment is warm, both sections lose cooling, ice blocks airflow or the appliance runs continuously. The difference between fridge and freezer temperatures is one of the first clues we use.
Send the fault details now and we will confirm the earliest available visit.
Before booking in Durban
These details help us understand the problem and prepare for a more useful first inspection.
Check whether the entire cabinet is warm or only one compartment is affected. Listen for normal fan movement and note whether frost or water collects near the door. A blocked airflow path, worn door seal, control issue and refrigerant-related fault need very different repairs. We will assess the symptoms rather than assume the appliance only needs gas.
Move perishable food to safe storage if temperatures are rising. Keep the model information and any display error available. Do not chip ice from the evaporator or pierce panels to speed up defrosting.
Describe any recent move, door-seal damage, power interruption or previous re-gassing. Tell us whether the compressor starts and stops frequently, runs continuously, or does not start.

Fridge Freezer Repair in Durban
In a fridge-freezer in Durban, the freezer can stay cold while the fresh-food section becomes warm. That often points us toward airflow, fan, defrost or control checks before we consider the sealed refrigeration system.
If both compartments warm up together, the diagnostic path changes. Power, compressor start, controls and refrigeration performance become more important, especially if the appliance is running constantly or clicking.
What are you seeing?
The temperature difference between compartments helps us narrow the fault quickly.
Airflow, fan, damper and frost conditions are checked first.
Compressor, start components, controls and refrigeration performance may be involved.
Defrost, sensing or drainage problems can block airflow.
Temperature sensing, controls or airflow conditions can cause excessive cold.
Defrost drainage and ice conditions are common starting points.
Seals, airflow, controls and refrigeration efficiency are assessed.
How we diagnose the problem
The fridge and freezer share systems but can fail in different ways, so we use both compartments as diagnostic information.
We establish whether the failure affects one compartment or the entire appliance.
Airflow restrictions and defrost faults are assessed when cooling is uneven.
Sensors, controls and compressor-start conditions are checked according to the pattern.
Refrigeration work is considered after other likely causes have been ruled out.
Useful before the visit
The more precise the symptom, the easier it is to prepare the right checks for your appliance or system.
Fridges that look similar can use different fans, sensors, start devices and controls. The model code helps us prepare for the correct design.
Heavy frost behind an internal panel, ice around vents or no visible frost at all can change which airflow, defrost and refrigeration checks come first.
Intermittent cooling is important to describe. Tell us whether the fault appears after door use, overnight, after a power cut or only after the compressor has run for a while.
Our repair work
We inspect the appliance, access the components that need attention and test the repaired function before the job is complete.

Answers about the faults we repair and how to book.
Yes. Airflow, fan, frost, damper and control checks are especially important with that pattern.
We check compressor start, controls and refrigeration performance as well as basic power conditions.
No. Heavy frost more often points us toward defrost, sensing or airflow problems.
