Cost of a Refrigerator Repair Per Type
A fridge consists of various parts that may develop issues. When a malfunction occurs, repairing a specific component is often cheaper than replacing the entire appliance. The following table outlines approximate costs for labor and materials required for different repair tasks.
Compressor
Fixing a fuel leak usually ranges from $240 to $340 at Appliance Repairmen, whereas replacing a compressor can cost anywhere from $240 to $490. The compressor, located at the back of the refrigerator, functions as an electric pump that holds refrigerant gas. Warning signs that your fridge may need servicing include:
- Strange or loud noises
- The interior light is not working
- A drop in refrigerant levels may point to a leak since fridges don’t need regular refueling like vehicles
- A faulty compressor can lead to insufficient cooling, potentially causing food to spoil.
Control Board
Fixing the control board is one of the most expensive refrigerator repairs, with costs typically ranging from $120 to $840. This critical part manages the operations of various components in the appliance. If your refrigerator has completely stopped working, the control board could be the issue. Repairs may be more costly for high-end brands or models with sophisticated features.
Thermostat
Fixing a refrigerator thermostat generally costs between $140 and $480 at Appliance Repairmen. This essential part ensures the appliance maintains the right temperature by monitoring and adjusting as needed. If the freezer is cold but the fridge is warmer than it should be, the thermostat may be malfunctioning.
Defrost Motor
The cost to repair a defrost motor typically falls between $140 and $480. This part plays a key role in preventing excess moisture from freezing by responding to thermostat adjustments. If your refrigerator stays too cold even after lowering the thermostat, the defrost motor could be the problem.
Coils
Fixing the coils in a refrigerator usually costs between $140 and $480. These vital components are responsible for cooling, condensing warm air, and circulating refrigerant to maintain low temperatures. Positioned at the bottom of most units, the coils are prone to dirt buildup and potential damage over time.
Door Seal
A refrigerator door that doesn’t stay shut is often caused by a worn-out or faulty door seal. Repair costs for this issue generally range between $90 and $480. Identifying the problem is typically simple, as the seal plays an obvious role in keeping the door securely closed.
Drip Pan
Fixing a drip pan usually starts at around $90 but can go up to $480, depending on how easy it is to access. Located underneath most refrigerators, the drip pan collects moisture from the defrost cycle. Issues with this part may become apparent if the fridge starts leaking from the bottom or makes unusual noises.
Ice Maker
The average cost to repair an ice maker is approximately $370. However, replacing the unit, which typically costs between $100 and $240, might prove to be a more budget-friendly solution.

Victor Rice
My dryer was giving me problems so I decided to give AnB Appliance Repair a try. They were friendly. They were willing to work around my schedule. They came within 24hrs. They fixed my dryer within an hour. I will definitely call them again if I need another repair!
Carlos Mason
VERY responsive! I called the guys on Thursday afternoon for a dishwasher issue and they came by the next day to diagnose the problem. Turns out I needed a new motor, which the guys ordered, picked up on a Saturday morning, and installed right away.
Marcus Stone
I had a hard time finding someone who would work on my stove be course it was quite old. The repairman arrived during the time they said he would, diagnosed the problem, and fixed it for a reasonable price. I will
definitely use them again!
Thank you!
