• Compressor short-cycling or tripping
• Frost or ice buildup on coils
• Alarm or high-temp warning

• Failed condenser fan or compressor
• Dirty condenser coils
• Refrigerant charge issues
• Defrost cycle failure
• Door gasket or seal failure

• Inspect condenser coils and fans
• Test compressor and electrical components

If the problem keeps coming back, affects food safety, or involves the sealed refrigeration system, it's time to call in a specialist. We'll diagnose it properly and explain your options clearly.

Repair cost depends on the diagnosis, parts, labor, refrigerator type, and the specific problem. The diagnostic visit is $125 for commercial service, and that fee is credited toward completed repairs. We won't quote a final repair price until we've diagnosed the actual issue — but we'll always explain the cost before any work begins.
