Freezer Repair
Freezer columns and drawers that frost over, thaw at the edges or short-cycle their way through a Puget Sound winter.
What people describe when they call
- Everything has a soft coat of frost on it and the ice cream has gone slushy.
- A slab of ice keeps forming under the bottom basket no matter how often it is chipped out.
- It runs for twenty minutes, clicks off, then starts again a few minutes later.
- The drawer no longer closes flush and the gasket feels stiff and papery.
What it costs
The bands we quote from
Parts and the labour to fit them, grouped the way the faults actually arrive. Your job lands inside one of these six before anyone opens a toolbag.
Flat $89 service call covering the visit and full diagnosis, credited against the repair once you approve it.
Whichever band the fault falls in, you get one firm number from inside that range, agreed with you before any work starts — and the service call comes off it the moment you say go.
- Door gasket or seal replacement
- $270–$620
- Evaporator or condenser fan motor
- $340–$700
- Defrost heater, thermostat or sensor
- $290–$690
- Ice maker, water valve or supply line
- $270–$790
- Electronic control board
- $420–$880
- Compressor or sealed-system repair
- $1,300–$3,270
These are ranges rather than starting prices — what moves inside one is the part itself and how far the unit has to come out of its cabinetry. For scale, a comparable built-in replacement, before installation and cabinetry work, runs $12,110–$21,200. That is the comparison worth making before you decide either way.

Fixed once, explained properly

Ice under the bottom basket had got thick enough to stop the drawer shutting, and I assumed that was normal. The drain was frozen back to the evaporator and the defrost limit had failed.
Twenty minutes on, a few minutes off, all night, every night. First visit pinned it to a control sensor that was not on the van, so we waited days for a second slot. Fitted, and the cycling settled.
Freezer drawer kept frosting up. Another company wanted to replace the whole control board. It was a split gasket and a drain that had iced over. Fraction of the price.
