- What brand is the fridge, and is the compressor humming or silent?
- Whirlpool. It's humming, but nothing gets cold.
- Give me a few minutes… This most probably looks like a defrost problem. Let me walk you through pricing.

A broken appliance is never just a broken appliance.
It’s the food you’re about to throw out, the day you’ll lose waiting, the fear of being overcharged. These are the calls we get, more or less word for word. Every one of them ends the same way: someone picks up.
“It's 9 p.m. and the fridge is warm.”
Three hundred dollars of food is on a timer, nobody picks up, and tomorrow is too late.
“The walk-in is climbing a degree an hour.”
Every hour it's down costs more than the repair. You need someone now, not Thursday.
“Is it even worth fixing?”
Nobody gives you a straight answer, so you can't decide — and the clock keeps running.
“The window was 8 to 12. It's 2.”
Nobody called. You lost the morning, and the fridge is still broken.
“The bill came in at double the quote.”
“Turned out it needed a part.” You had no way to check, and no choice but to pay.
“You explained it three times.”
To the dispatcher, to the voicemail, and again at the door — and still nobody knew what was wrong.
And then it’s over
The fridge is humming again before the kids are in bed.
- You knew what was likely wrong before you hung up.
- Someone came at the time you picked, not a four-hour window.
- The bill was the number you were told on the phone.
- The food in the door never had to be thrown out.
How it works
From broken to fixed, today, not next week.
No hold music. No guessing. No surprises at the door.
- 01
Call the moment it breaks.
Day or night, weekend or holiday. Tell us what's happening in your own words — we pick up instantly.
- 02
Know what's wrong in minutes.
From the brand, the model, and what you tell us, we work out the most likely cause before anyone drives out.
- 03
Know the price before anyone comes.
A service call fee plus a labor range. Parts priced separately. You approve everything first — and the service call fee is waived if you go ahead.
- 04
Fixed today, in most cases.
A technician arrives at the time you chose, confirms the problem, explains what they found, and fixes it — usually in one visit.
Common problems we fix
If this sounds like your appliance, we've seen it before.
The problems people call us about most — and what they usually turn out to be. Tell us what's happening and you'll know the likely cause before anyone drives out.
We repair refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, ovens and ranges, cooktops, dishwashers, and microwaves at home — and walk-in coolers, ice machines, commercial ranges, and commercial dishwashers for businesses.
In your home
Fridges and freezers
- “Fridge not cooling, but the freezer works”Usually a defrost problem or blocked airflow between the two. Often a quick fix.Read the guide
- “Ice maker stopped making ice”Usually a frozen water line or a failed inlet valve.
- “Freezer frosting over”Usually a worn door seal or the defrost system.
- “Fridge making a loud humming or rattling noise”Usually dirty condenser coils or a fan motor — where the sound comes from tells you which.Read the guide
Washers and dryers
In your business
- “Walk-in cooler not holding temperature”Usually an evaporator fan, a door gasket, or low refrigerant. Every hour matters — call early.
- “Commercial ice machine not making ice”Usually scale buildup, a water inlet valve, or a harvest problem.
- “Range burner won't light”Usually a clogged burner or a failed igniter.
- “Commercial dishwasher not heating”Usually a heating element or a thermostat.
Down equipment is treated as an emergency, not a ticket.

For your home
When one appliance breaks, the whole house stops.
Fridge, washer, oven, dishwasher. You can’t cook, you can’t wash, and you can’t wait a week for someone to maybe turn up.
- Answered instantly, at any hour
- A price you approve before anyone comes
- Fixed on the first visit
For your business
When the walk-in fails, every hour costs money.
Restaurants, cafés, clinics, laundromats. When commercial equipment goes down so does the revenue, and it keeps going down until someone fixes it.
- Treated as an emergency, not a ticket
- Fastest response when downtime costs money
- Walk-in coolers, ice machines, commercial ranges and dishwashers

Why FixAIro
The same four things go wrong everywhere. We removed all of them.
Nobody answers. The price changes. The technician doesn't show. Then they come back a second time for the part they should have brought.
Most repair companiesFixAIro
- When you call
- Voicemail, or a promise to call back that often never comes.
- Someone answers the moment you call. Two in the morning on a Sunday included.
- What it costs
- A number on the phone, then a different one at the door once the work has started.
- A service call fee and a labour range before the visit. What you approve is what you pay.
- When they arrive
- A four-hour window, a day off work, and sometimes nobody at all.
- A real arrival time you picked, a named technician, live on a map.
- How many visits
- A second trip, because the first one happened without the right part.
- The likely problem worked out before we come, so it usually takes one visit.
It’s not really the fridge you’re worried about.
It’s the bill you can’t check, and the stranger you’re about to let into your kitchen. Nobody says that part out loud, so here it is answered.
Before they knock
You'll know who's coming.
A name, not just a van. You pick the arrival time yourself, and you can watch the technician on the way rather than waiting in for a four-hour window.
Before anything starts
You approve the price first.
A service call fee and a labour range before the visit, parts priced separately, and the final number agreed with you before a single tool comes out. Nothing gets added at the door.
When it isn't worth it
We'll tell you not to fix it.
If the repair costs more than the appliance is worth, we say so — on the phone, before you've paid us anything. We'd rather lose the job than sell you one you shouldn't buy.
Guides
What to check before you call, in plain language.
Still deciding whether to call?
These are the five things people ask before they do. If yours isn’t here, it takes one call to find out.
How much does appliance repair cost?
There is a service call fee for a technician to come out and confirm the problem — and it is waived if you go ahead with the repair. Before the visit, we give you a labor range for the repair. Parts are priced separately. You approve the final price before any work starts, and nothing is added at the door.
Should I repair it or replace it?
We answer that honestly. We weigh the age of the appliance, the likely problem, and the cost to fix it against the price of a new one — and we tell you when replacing is the smarter choice, even though it means we do not get the job.
How fast can a technician come?
Same day in most cases, next day at the latest. When you call, we check which technicians are free and offer you real times you can pick from — not a four-hour window.
How does the AI help with my repair?
It answers the moment you call, asks the right questions, works out the likely problem from your appliance's brand and model, explains the pricing, and books a technician — all in one call. A real technician does the repair.
