When to Call for Freezer Repair
- Freezer is too cold and freezing everything solid
- Heavy frost on the back wall or around the door
- Freezer runs constantly but stays warm
- An error code or temperature alarm
Before the Food Thaws
Keep the door closed. Every opening lets cold air out. Put an appliance thermometer inside so you know the real temperature, and move food to another freezer or a cooler with ice if the repair will take longer than the freezer can hold.

An appliance thermometer is the most reliable way to know the temperature; keep one at the front of both the refrigerator and the freezer and check them at least weekly. Source: FDA - Are You Storing Food Safely?

Around Grapevine
Most freezer calls in Grapevine come down to the same handful of parts: the defrost system, a fan, the temperature control, the door gasket and dirty condenser coils.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license.

In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
