Fridge-Freezer Repairs

Home / Fridge-Freezer Repairs

Having problems with your fridge freezer? At Moston Lane Appliances we offer a prompt and reliable repairs service that will have your broken appliance running again with minimum disruption to you.

We all know how busy life can get sometimes, and when a domestic appliance you use as much as you use your fridge freezer breaks you’ll want it sorted out as soon as possible. That’s why we’ll always try to book our visit for within 24 hours of you call. We’ll also come within a two hour window rather than making you wait around all day like other repairs services. We have many years of experience fixing appliances and we can often diagnose the issue over the phone to speed the process along.

 

We stock Euronics parts, and can easily get hold of spare parts for all kinds of models of fridge freezer. This means if we’ve already identified the problem on the phone then we can fix it in one go. Even parts for more obscure models can be sourced, although sometimes that takes slightly longer. As a small, family run business, you can rest assured that we will deliver a quality, friendly service every time- we’ve been a part of the Moston and Manchester communities for more than 15 years so we’re a tried and tested team.

 

Common problems

If your freezer has stopped freezing, it might be because the compressor has stopped working. You can tell if this is the case if the appliance no longer hums. If it does hum constantly but it’s still not working properly then the contents of the freezer might be packed together too tightly or you might have a faulty seal. This often causes frost to build up inside the unit. Other common fridge freezer faults include issues to do with the condenser, the evaporator coils or thermostat which work in combination to carefully control the temperature.

 

All of these parts should be easy to replace, but sometimes it’s better in the long run to get a completely new model if yours is getting a bit long in the tooth. We stock a carefully selected range of appliances, and we’ll make sure you get the right one to suit your needs. The efficiency of new models is improving every year so there’s never been a better time to upgrade. Take a look at our selection online or drop into our shop in Moston if you want some face-to-face advice. Call us today for our fast and friendly appliance repairs service.

EXPERT ADVICE & RECOMMENDATIONS

Why is my fridge/freezer vibrating?

This can occur when appliances are on placed on hard flooring or are uneven. Check the appliance isn’t unbalanced, and if the problem continues, give us a call.

 

How often should I defrost my freezer?

Regardless of your particular model, we recommend that you defrost your freezer approximately once a year or when layers of ice become more than a quarter of an inch thick. Don’t forget to unplug your freezer and make sure you have something to catch the water in other than your kitchen floor!

 

Why is some of the food in my refrigerator freezing?

This can happen in some models when the temperature is set too low. The dial which controls the temperature is usually numbered 1-5. If it’s set to 5, that’s the coldest temperature and it might end up freezing any food stored towards the back of the device.

 

What should I do if I can see condensation gathering on the inside of my fridge?

This happens normally during hot weather, and it’s probably nothing to worry about. Just make sure the device is level, the seal is working properly and there isn’t anything blocking the doors.

 

AIs it safe to put my refrigerator all the way up against a wall?

As long as your model doesn’t have a metal grid on the back of it, this is fine. If it does, you risk damaging the unit if you don’t leave at least an inch of space between the fridge and the wall.

 

Which brands of fridge-freezer do you repair?

We offer a repair service for most leading brands of fridge-freezer and can repair many of the smaller brands too. Send over an email with details of your make/model and we’ll confirm if we can fix it and if we have the parts in stock.

 

My freezer is a single unit combined with my fridge, can it be repaired?

Yes, we offer fridge-freezer repairs as well as standalone freezer repairs, so that shouldn’t be a problem.

 

Do you offer same day appliance repairs?

We’ll always offer you the soonest available appointment, so if we can easily source any parts that might be required we can often carry out the repair in the same day.

 

Do you work with landlords and agencies?

Yes, we work with many landlords and agents on an ongoing basis.

 

Do you repair my make or model?

We’ll normally determine the model of appliance over the phone to save time when we arrive. Occasionally, spare parts are difficult to find for older models but we can fix most appliances unless it would be cheaper to buy a new one!

 

Which areas do you serve?

 

We’re north Manchester-based but we cover the city centre and surrounding areas.
