Refrigerator repair in Gastonia, for older homes and rentals

Gastonia has some of the older housing in our area: about half of its homes were built before 1980, and close to half are rented. Older kitchens and rental refrigerators each bring their own kind of repair.

We repair refrigerators all over Gastonia, from the streets near downtown and the Loray Mill area to the newer neighborhoods near the city limits.

Refrigerators in older kitchens

Kitchens in older Gastonia houses were often built around a smaller refrigerator. A newer model squeezed into that space may sit on an older outlet, close to a wall, with little room for air. That makes it run longer and wear its fans and compressor parts sooner.

On older outlets, make sure the refrigerator is plugged straight into the wall, not into an extension cord or power strip.

Rental refrigerators

About 46% of Gastonia homes are rented. In a rental, the refrigerator usually belongs to the owner, who decides on the repair. If you are a tenant, report the symptoms to your landlord or property manager. If you are a landlord, tell us who will let us in.

When the compressor clicks

An older refrigerator that clicks, hums and then goes quiet is usually trying to start its compressor and failing. Often the start relay or overload is at fault, not the compressor itself, and that is a smaller repair.

Refrigerator repair in Gastonia: questions

My old fridge clicks every few minutes and stays warm. Can it be fixed?

Often. That pattern usually points to the start relay or overload, which are smaller parts. We test them and the compressor before quoting anything.

I am a landlord with a rental in Gastonia. Can I book for my tenant?

Yes. Book the repair and tell us the tenant's name and phone number so we can set the time with them. Nothing gets repaired until you say yes.

Do you cover Belmont, Cramerton and Lowell too?

Yes. All three are near Gastonia and inside our area.
