Decatur kitchens come in every age and size: 1920s bungalows in Oakhurst and Winnona Park, mid-century ranches toward North Decatur, condos and townhomes near the Square and Agnes Scott, and homes across the wider Decatur mailing area along Candler Road, Columbia Drive and Memorial Drive. I'm Hank, and my crew repairs refrigerators in all of them. French-door, side-by-side, top-freezer, bottom-freezer, counter-depth and built-in fridges are all part of the job. We come out same- or next-day.

Refrigerators, freezers, ice makers, ovens and ranges. Choose yours to see how we fix it.
Warm, leaking, noisy or not cooling: French-door, side-by-side, built-in.
Frost buildup, soft food and freezers that run nonstop.
No ice, slow ice or a leak from the dispenser.
Gas and electric ovens that will not heat or bake evenly.
Burners, cooktops and ranges: gas, electric and induction.
Bungalows and older homes in Oakhurst, Winnona Park and near downtown. Kitchens here were built long before 36-inch French-door refrigerators. Many have been remodeled, but the fridge cutout is still often tight, and older floors can tilt a refrigerator so its doors don't swing shut. We check the fit and the level along with the cooling parts.
Mid-century ranches toward North Decatur and the Emory side. These homes are often on their third or fourth refrigerator. Side-by-sides and bottom-freezers are common, along with a second fridge in a basement or carport.
Condos and townhomes near the Square and East Lake. Counter-depth and compact bottom-freezer models in smaller kitchens, where tight cabinetry around the fridge is a frequent cause of warm temperatures.
Homes across south DeKalb with Decatur addresses. Neighborhoods along Candler Road, Columbia Drive and Glenwood Road use the 30032, 30034 and 30035 ZIP codes. Top-freezer and side-by-side refrigerators that work hard in busy households, often with a garage or utility-room freezer nearby.
Booking. A person answers 24/7. Tell us the brand, the type of refrigerator and what's going on, and we'll set a same- or next-day window in Decatur.
Diagnosis. The tech measures both sections, checks the gaskets and the level of the fridge, inspects the condenser and both fans, tests the defrost system, the damper, the sensors, the start relay and the control board. Refrigerant work, if it comes to that, stays with an EPA 608 certified tech. Before any part is replaced, you hear what failed and what the repair takes. The decision to go ahead is always yours.
Repair. We install genuine or OEM-approved parts and watch the refrigerator begin pulling its temperature back down before we leave. Refrigerator repairs in Decatur are covered by a warranty of up to 6 months on parts and labor.
A lot of Decatur repairs come down to the house as much as the refrigerator. In an older home, a floor that slopes even slightly can tip a fridge forward or sideways. The doors then drift open a crack, warm air gets in, frost builds and the fridge runs nonstop. Tight cutouts trap heat around the condenser, and a cabinet built low over the top blocks the air that some models push out there. Our techs level the refrigerator, check the clearances and look at the outlet before blaming a part. Sometimes the fix is a part. Sometimes it's an adjustment that keeps the next part from failing.
Decatur's older houses often have a basement, and the ranches and split-levels farther out often have a carport or a utility room. Those are the usual homes for a second refrigerator or a spare freezer. A damp basement can rust hinges and wear gaskets faster, and a carport fridge faces the full Georgia summer with only a roof overhead. Before we replace anything on a second fridge, we check where it sits, how much air it gets and whether the spot is part of the problem. Then you can decide whether to repair it in place or move it somewhere easier on it.
Repair makes sense for fans, defrost parts, dampers, sensors, relays, boards, gaskets and water parts, which covers most refrigerator problems. A sealed-system failure on an older, basic refrigerator is the case where buying new may be smarter, and we'll lay that out honestly.
