Refrigerator Repair

The work week is done and you’ve embarked on your Saturday errands.  Groceries have been purchased for the week and you feel a sense of accomplishment.  After lugging in all the shopping bags full of poultry, beef and fish, milk, yogurt, veggies and fruit, you realize that the fridge light is not working.  As you begin to load in the artisanal cheeses and fresh juice, you notice a puddle of water forming on the floor.  Wait a minute.  You begin to ask yourself a series of questions:  What is happening?  Is the power on?  Has the electricity gone out?  Is the refrigerator plugged in?  After trouble shooting, it dawns on you that you could lose over $200 of groceries.  It’s time to call Appliance Repair Stockton for a swift solution.   
 
Repair vs. Buying New
In todays disposable world, it’s easy to make a quick decision to purchase a new unit when it’s highly possible that a simple component replacement might do the trick. Conduct a cost benefits analysis to determine if purchasing a new refrigerator is right for you.  Generally speaking, if your fridge is older than 15 years, it’s time to start considering greener pastures.  A new model can cost between $300 to $2100, depending on the brand, technological features and if it is a top, bottom or side by side unit.  Not to mention the installation costs which are typically $150-$250.  Labor costs to repair a fridge are usually $200-$400.  Parts can run between $50 and $300.
 
What Could Possibly Go Wrong?
A leaky fridge is a sign that the worst is yet to come.  A loud refrigerator can quickly transform from soothing white noise into a nuisance.  When the interior light stops working, a quick bulb replacement will do the trick.  But if it keeps happening, it is indicative of a more serious issue.  Rattling, shaking and the constant running of the motor is a tell-tale sign that something is wrong.  If your unit is too cold no matter how you adjust it, there is more at stake than frozen food.  Some of our clients experience machines that are never quite cold enough.  Contact us to trouble shoot.
