Refrigerator and freezer repair in Broomfield
Some calls about a Sub-Zero end on the phone, because the sound turns out to be normal. The rest end with a repair: a worn fan, a relay that will not start the compressor, a defrost part that quit. SubZero Repair Broomfield repairs built-in, integrated and undercounter refrigerators and freezers all over Broomfield.
How a visit goes
- Listen. We run the unit, open and close the doors, and wait for the sound you described.
- Measure. Section temperatures with our own probes; fans, relay and controls with a meter.
- Name the part and the price. You hear which part failed, how we know, and what the repair costs, before anything more is taken apart.
- Repair, then listen again. We run the unit through a full start and check that the temperature is falling.
What fails, by what you notice
| What you notice | Usual part | Range |
|---|---|---|
| Scraping or a whine inside the freezer | Evaporator fan motor, or ice on the fan from a defrost fault | $330–$680 |
| A hum at the grille while both sections warm | Condenser fan motor, or a coil clogged with dust | $330–$680 |
| Frost on the freezer back wall, fresh food too warm | Defrost heater, its thermostat or a sensor | $290–$640 |
| Odd readings, the unit starting and stopping | The control board or a sensor it reads | $410–$940 |
| Sweat along the door edge | The door gasket | $280–$670 |
| Clicks, but the compressor never runs | Start relay or overload first; the compressor last | $1,290–$3,100 if it is the compressor |
The visit is $89. Once the fault is found you get a firm price, and the $89 comes off it if you go ahead. A start relay or an overload costs far less than a compressor; it is priced after we measure it.
Freezers are part of the same visit
A freezer column, the drawers of an over-and-under, an undercounter freezer: the visit and the ranges are the same. Several sounds in our sound index come from the freezer, because the evaporator fan, the defrost heater and the ice maker all sit behind its back panel.
Two practical questions
- Do you fix the ice maker as well?
- Yes, when it is part of the refrigerator. The ice maker inside the freezer, its water valve and its supply line are covered by the same visit and the same diagnosis. A separate undercounter ice machine is a different job, so mention it when you call if that is the one acting up.
- How soon can someone come?
- Call (720) 704-2791 and you are offered the first open slot while you are on the line, with no callback to wait for. Visits run from 8 in the morning until 8 at night on every day of the week, so an evening or a Saturday appointment is often possible.
