Fridge and refrigerator repair in Aurora, ON

Aurora has everything from 1970s and 80s side-splits near the town centre to large newer homes in Aurora Highlands, Bayview Wellington and Hills of St. Andrew. That means basic top-freezer fridges in one kitchen and 36-inch French-door or counter-depth models with in-door ice makers in the next. The symptoms are similar across all of them:

• Fresh-food side warm, freezer cold: usually a defrost fault that has iced over the evaporator, or a failed evaporator fan.
• Both sides warm: the condenser fan or coil (often just dirty), the start relay, or the compressor itself.
• Frost on the back wall of the freezer: the defrost heater, sensor or control.
• Water on the floor or under the crispers: a frozen or blocked defrost drain, or a leaking water line or valve.
• Ice maker or dispenser not working: the ice maker itself, the water valve feeding it, a fill tube that has frozen, or weak supply pressure.
• Noisy fridge: fan blades catching ice, a worn fan motor or a relay clicking.
• Doors not sealing: worn gaskets or sagging doors.

We repair Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, GE and GE Profile, Frigidaire, KitchenAid, Maytag, Bosch, Kenmore, Electrolux and other common brands.

Many Aurora kitchens have counter-depth fridges fitted tightly into cabinets. That limits airflow around the condenser, so the fridge runs longer and warmer than it should, and it makes the back panel harder to reach. Tell us when you book if the fridge is boxed in or has panels around it. The technician may need to slide it out carefully to reach the compressor area and the water connection.

Keep the grille at the bottom front clear of rugs and dust; on many counter-depth models that grille is where the condenser draws its air.

Refrigerant and compressor work is regulated sealed-system repair. It has its own $159 + tax diagnostic; we then explain the fault and give you the repair price by phone, along with an honest view of whether the fridge is worth it at its age.

On most fridges under about 10–12 years old, fans, defrost parts, sensors, valves and gaskets are worth repairing. A failed compressor on an older, lower-cost unit usually isn’t. You get the price and a straight answer, and the decision stays yours.

1. Send us your Aurora postal code, the fridge’s brand and model number and a short description of the problem, online or by phone.
2. We call or text to confirm a time window of about three hours. Your request isn’t an appointment until then.
3. At the visit, the technician finds the fault and puts the repair price in writing.
4. Approve it and the repair is done there and then, or on a second visit if a part has to be ordered. Completed repairs carry a 3-month warranty on parts and labour.

Our York Region visits run during the day and cover household appliances only, so we don’t take commercial refrigeration or overnight emergency calls in Aurora.
