Get matched with top refrigerator installers or repairers in Mayville, WI

As a general rule, stick with a repair if the quote comes in at 50% or less of a new unit’s price. Spending $100 to $300 on a repair keeps the fridge you already know running, extends its life, and costs far less than buying a brand new replacement.

When a control board starts to fail, you’ll begin to notice erratic temps, flashing error codes, dim displays, or controls that won’t respond. Plan on spending $80 to $800 for the fix—about $440 on average—and call a professional right away to get cooling back on track and prevent food from spoiling.

Give your fridge a quick once-over every few months: vacuum the coils, wipe the door gasket, and keep plenty of space for airflow. These small tasks prevent minor issues from escalating into costly breakdowns and help the appliance last longer. If anything seems off, schedule a pro visit sooner rather than later.
