What we see on refrigerator calls in Queen Anne
Condo kitchens on Lower Queen Anne often fit a narrow counter-depth fridge into a cabinet with no space at the top or sides, which traps heat and shortens fan motor life. Houses on the hill have more room but older units. We look at the airflow around the cabinet as well as the parts inside.
Most refrigerator calls in the city come down to air, ice and a few small parts. A frozen evaporator coil blocks the cold air meant for the fresh-food compartment. When a defrost heater or its thermostat quits, frost builds until the fan blade scrapes it. A start relay clicks every few minutes while the compressor stays silent. A meter and a thermometer tell us which part is to blame before anything gets ordered, and you get the number in ink first.
Puddles below the crispers
The defrost drain has iced up or clogged, and melt water that should reach the pan underneath ends up inside the fridge.
Clicking, then silence
A failing start relay or overload, sometimes a compressor that will not start. We test which one before anything is ordered.
A loud fan or a buzzing hum
Ice touching a fan blade, a worn condenser fan motor, or a compressor straining against dusty coils.
Doors that do not seal
Torn gaskets, a sagging door or a cabinet that sits out of level. Damp air gets in and frost follows.

A meter, not a hunch
At your door the technician confirms power first, runs a cycle, then takes readings on the parts that fit the symptom. The diagnosis comes from numbers on the meter.

FAQ
Refrigerators in Queen Anne: questions
Do you work in Queen Anne condo buildings with service rules?
Yes. If your building needs a booked service elevator or a check-in at the front desk, tell us when we call back and we schedule around it.
Do I unplug a warm fridge while I wait?
No, keep it plugged in. The exceptions: water reaching a floor that could be damaged, or frost jamming the fan. Otherwise the technician wants to catch the fault in the act.
How long can food sit in a fridge that stopped cooling?
A closed refrigerator holds a safe temperature for about four hours without cooling. If the fresh-food side reads above 40°F, the perishables (milk, meat, cooked food) belong in an iced cooler until we arrive.
Do you repair counter-depth and built-in models?
Yes, including counter-depth French-door units and built-in columns. Share the model number when we phone back, and the likely parts come along.
