Fridge Warm, but the Light Is On
A stalled condenser or evaporator fan is the most common cause.
Causes & checks
A compressor that clicks but will not run, a failed start relay or a control fault can do the same. We test each part before we quote.

Fridge Problems We Fix in Vaughan
A warm fridge puts food on a clock, so we start with the cooling system and work out from there. These are the problems we see most.
Freezer Cold, Fridge Warm
Cold air is not reaching the fresh-food side.
Causes & checks
Frost on the evaporator, a stuck air damper or a slow evaporator fan usually blocks it. That often traces back to a defrost fault.
Water Under or Inside the Fridge
A blocked defrost drain or a leaking water line is the usual source.
Causes & checks
On fridges with ice and water, the inlet valve and its fittings are next on the list.
Ice Maker Stalled or Leaking
Check that the ice maker is switched on and the water line is open.
Causes & checks
If it still will not fill or freeze, the inlet valve, a frozen fill tube or the ice maker module is likely.
Noisy Fridge
Buzzing, clicking or rattling usually comes from a fan, the compressor relay or a loose drain pan.
Causes & checks
A fan blade rubbing on ice is common when the defrost system has failed.
Frost Build-Up or Running Nonstop
A worn door gasket or a defrost fault is usually behind it.
Causes & checks
We check the seal, the defrost heater and its sensor, and the control that runs the cycle. Before We Arrive (template safety box) Keep the doors closed; a closed fridge holds its cold for hours. If water is pooling, wipe it up and shut the water line if you can reach it. If you smell burning, see sparks, or the fridge trips the breaker, unplug it. For anything else, call us at 1-888-642-0352. ---
Freezer Repair
If the freezer side of your fridge will not freeze, frosts up or leaks, we fix it in your kitchen. Diagnostic regularly $129, now $99, waived when Aria does the repair. Completed repairs carry our 1-Year Parts & Labour Warranty.
What we fix in the freezer section of your fridge:
- Food going soft, or ice cream that will not stay firm
- Frost on the back wall or around the door
- A buzz, rattle or fan noise from the freezer
- Water under the drawers or under the fridge
- A dark, silent freezer while the fridge side has power
- An ice maker that is slow, stuck or not making ice
Top-freezer, bottom-freezer, French-door and side-by-side fridges
The freezer sits in a different spot on each style, but the parts that keep it cold work the same way. We check the fan, the defrost parts, the door seal and the controls, and give you the price before any work starts. We work on home fridges only.
Call 1-888-642-0352 or book online. We take calls Mon–Sun 8 AM–10 PM.

Local Fridge and Freezer Repair in Vaughan
Our office is on Santina Street in Vaughan, a short drive from most of the city along Highway 7, Rutherford Road and Major Mackenzie Drive. Call in the morning and we will check what is open for your street that day.
Vaughan kitchens range from counter-depth fridges in VMC condos to French-door and built-in units in larger houses and townhomes. Many homes here also have hard water, which can slow the water filter and inlet valve on fridges with ice and water. Change the filter on the schedule in your manual, and tell us if the ice has slowed down or the dispenser trickles.
If you smell burning, see sparks, or the fridge trips the breaker, unplug it and call us at 1-888-642-0352.

1-Year Parts & Labour Warranty
Completed fridge repairs are backed by our 1-Year Parts & Labour Warranty.
If the job needs plumbing for a water line, wiring or other work beyond the fridge itself, we will tell you before any work starts.
Should You Repair or Replace Your Refrigerator?
Fans, defrost parts, relays, valves and gaskets are usually worth fixing. A sealed-system failure on an older fridge is the main case where replacing can make more sense. We give you the price and tell you plainly which way we would lean.
Age & Condition
Rust, cracked liners or a run of repeat breakdowns can make a major repair hard to justify.
Type of Failure
Fan, defrost, relay and ice-maker faults are often practical to repair. Compressor and sealed-system work costs more.
Parts Availability
Parts for some older or discontinued models are limited or slow to source.
Repair Cost
We compare the repair price with a comparable new fridge and say so if replacing is the better spend.
If replacing makes more sense, we can install your new refrigerator (#installation).
