When your fridge needs attention
- 1
Fridge not cooling or cooling poorly
Food does not stay cold, or the top compartment is fine and the bottom is not, or the reverse. The cause could be the thermostat, the fan or the compressor; only an on-site check will find the actual fault.
- 2
Frost building up or water leaking
A thick layer of ice on the inner wall, or puddles under the fridge every day, usually points to a fault in the defrost cycle or a blocked condensate drain. Jeddah's high humidity makes these faults worse if left.
- 3
Unusual noises or a worn door seal
A clicking or steady hum can come from the evaporator fan or from a compressor working harder than it should. A cracked or loose door seal lets warm air in constantly, straining the unit and raising your electricity bill without showing an obvious fault.
Who it's for
Your older fridge is making strange noises
We test the compressor and fan in place, assess the full condition of the unit, and tell you honestly whether repair is worthwhile or replacement saves more in the long run.
Ask on WhatsAppYour newer fridge has suddenly stopped cooling
We diagnose the fault on site and identify whether the thermostat, the cooling cycle or another component has failed, then carry out the repair in the same visit when possible.

What sets this district apart
Al Tadamun contains modern villas and mid-rise residential blocks with some small commercial shops, enjoying more space and open streets than the older districts. Most fridges here are modern local or global brands, and kitchens are mainly indoor. Intense summer heat and moderate humidity make the compressor and condenser coil need routine maintenance. Access to homes and flats here is relatively easy, reducing service time.
Al Tadamun sits in south Jeddah, a relatively modern residential district of spacious villas and apartment blocks.
Most fridges here are modern models with larger capacities, placed in indoor kitchens with clear electrical connections.

FAQ
Questions about Fridge & freezer service
My fridge cools at the top but the bottom drawer is warm; what causes that?
In fridges with a back-wall evaporator, the air-circulation fan may have stopped or be blocked by ice, so cold air reaches the top shelf but does not spread down. The thermostat position or a blocked air duct can also cause this. The technician identifies the real cause on site because the answer varies by model.
Does frost building up inside mean the fridge needs regassing?
Usually not. Frost build-up most often points to a fault in the automatic defrost cycle, such as the defrost heater, timer or thermal fuse, not a low refrigerant charge. A low charge shows as weak cooling and a hot compressor, not frost. The on-site check tells the difference clearly.
Do I need to empty the fridge before the technician arrives?
Many faults, including the fan, thermostat, drain and door seal, are fixed without emptying or moving the fridge. When a forced defrost is needed we ask you to move food off the shelves temporarily. We let you know this when we book the visit so you are ready.
When does replacing the fridge make more sense than repairing it?
There is no single rule that fits every unit, but we weigh the fridge's age, the cost and availability of the needed part, and the condition of the rest of the unit. If our technician judges that the repair cost does not justify the remaining life of the fridge, he says so clearly before any work begins.
Does Jeddah's intense heat affect how a home fridge performs?
Yes. A fridge is designed to work within a set ambient temperature range. When placed in a poorly ventilated kitchen or near a heat source, the compressor works harder than it was built for. This speeds up wear and raises electricity consumption. The technician checks the unit's position and the room ventilation as part of the diagnosis.
My modern fridge does not cool well in intense summer heat, why?
Extreme heat overloads the compressor and condenser coil. Our team checks the coil's cleanliness and airflow around it, and may suggest improving ventilation around the fridge.
Can you easily reach villas and flats in Al Tadamun?
Yes, Al Tadamun has relatively wide streets and clear entrances to villas and blocks, making team and equipment access straightforward.
My new fridge leaks water despite being modern, is that normal?
The drain outlet or tubing may be blocked by dust or ice buildup. Our team inspects the system, clears the blockage, and ensures water flows freely.
Do indoor kitchens in Al Tadamun provide enough ventilation for the fridge?
In most cases yes, but some modern kitchens may need better airflow around the unit. Our team assesses ventilation and suggests solutions if needed.
