College Park notes
College Park refrigerators, owned and rented
Students make up roughly half of College Park's population, and a lot of the city's houses are rented, so a refrigerator repair here often involves a landlord or property manager as well as the person using the fridge. Our service for property managers covers tenant scheduling and invoicing the owner.
A GE in an Adams Morgan request leaked a large amount of water onto a wood floor. The usual sources are a clogged defrost drain, a cracked filter housing, or a leaking inlet valve or supply line. On a wood floor, dry it quickly, and if the supply line might be the cause, close the water valve behind the fridge.
A Summit from the Hyattsville and Chillum area, in another request, stopped cooling in both sections because of a refrigerant leak on the evaporator tubing. Compact and apartment-size fridges are common in student housing, and on one of those a sealed-system repair often costs more than the fridge is worth. We'll say so after the diagnosis.
If a rental fridge's ice maker has slowed over the years, minerals from the WSSC supply building up in the fill valve are one possible cause; the fridge filter catches sediment and taste, not hardness.

Frequently asked questions
Refrigerator Repair in College Park, MD FAQ
Can someone come fix my fridge today in College Park?
We're based in Alexandria, about 14 miles from College Park. Same-day and next-day appointments are available when the technician route has open windows; call or book online for the earliest option. Appointments cost the same on weekdays, evenings and weekends - our hours run 8 AM to 10 PM Monday through Saturday and 10 AM to 10 PM on Sunday, all at one standard rate.
Many refrigerator repairs are completed in a single visit once the technician has diagnosed the fault and confirmed the parts on hand. If a specific part has to be ordered, we schedule a short return visit to finish the job.
How much does it cost to fix a fridge in College Park?
Appliance Surgeon charges $75 for the diagnostic visit, or $115 for a double unit (such as a double wall oven, washer-dryer combo or stacked laundry), and the fee is credited toward the repair if you approve the quote. Labor starts at $200 and stays there on about 9 in 10 repairs; more complex jobs can reach $450. Parts are extra and listed in the quote. The part decides the rest: a relay, fan or thermostat sits at the affordable end, while sealed-system work costs more. Every College Park, MD visit starts with diagnosis and a firm quote before any repair - and same-day appointments are often available when food is at risk. Typical price ranges by appliance are in our appliance repair cost guide.
What fridge problems do you fix in College Park?
Common calls include not cooling, freezing food, ice maker not working, water leaking, loud compressor or fan noise and frost buildup. The exact cause is confirmed during diagnosis.
I rent in College Park. Should I call you or my landlord?
Your landlord or property manager first, since they usually arrange and pay for the repair. If they ask you to book us directly, have the property address, the fridge's model number and their contact details ready.
Is it worth fixing a compact fridge that stopped cooling?
It depends on the cause. A failed thermostat, fan or start relay is often worth replacing. On a small unit a refrigerant leak usually isn't, since the sealed-system work costs close to a new compact fridge.
Should I try to fix the fridge myself first?
A few basics are safe: confirm the unit has power, make sure the doors close and seal fully, and clean the condenser coils if they are dusty. Beyond that, refrigerant lines and electrical components are best left to a technician - probing inside can turn a small repair into a larger one.
