Freezers fail quietly. You notice frost creeping up the walls, or ice cream that scoops like soup. Most of it comes down to airflow: a blocked evaporator, a frosted-over coil, a fan motor that stopped spinning, a door gasket that dried out in Colorado's thin, dry air. Sometimes it's a defrost heater or thermostat. Sometimes the compressor is short-cycling. A visit starts with temperature readings and a look at where the cold air is supposed to move. We check the seal, the coils, the fans, and the controls, then explain what we found in plain words before any part goes in. We work on chest, upright, and built-in units across all major brands as an independent shop. Call us.

Worth a look before you call — sometimes it saves you the visit.
Around 0°F is the target for safe long-term storage. If your thermometer reads 10°F or warmer, food quality drops fast. Give the unit a few hours after any door-open stretch, then read it again before calling.
Dry indoor air still carries moisture, and every door opening pulls some in. When a gasket has hardened or the defrost cycle quits, that moisture freezes on the evaporator instead of draining away. Frost then chokes the airflow.
Usually, yes. Unheated Colorado spaces swing hard between hot and cold, and some units struggle when ambient temperatures drop. We check whether the model is rated for that space and whether the control is reading the room instead of the box.
A full, closed freezer holds cold for roughly a day or two. Keep the door shut, group items together, and cover the load with towels or blankets. If the repair will stretch longer, move the most valuable items to a cooler.
Not for long. Buzzing or grinding often means a fan motor bearing or a compressor start component is failing. Running a unit in that state can turn a small part swap into a sealed-system problem. Describe the sound when you call us.
Both. Chest freezers, upright standalones, drawer units, and column built-ins all come across our bench. We service all major brands as an independent company, so we're not limited to one manufacturer's lineup.
Phone us or fill the form. Describe the noise, the smell, the error code. Mention your altitude and whether the unit vents outside. Small details help us load the right parts on the van.
A technician checks the appliance in your kitchen or laundry room. We test airflow, heat, drainage, and electrical. Then we explain the fault in plain words and outline the repair options before touching a wrench.
Once you approve, we do the work. Before packing up, we run the appliance and verify it vents, drains, and cycles properly. We clean the area and tell you what to watch for next season.
Ask these of anyone you let into your home — us included. Call and we'll answer all five before you book anything.
Describe the symptoms and we'll book the visit — takes about a minute.
