Same-day fridge & freezer repair across Dubai
Fridge not cooling, freezer icing up, water leaking or the compressor clicking on and off? Al Karama Technical LLC sends an experienced refrigeration technician to your home or business anywhere in Dubai, usually the same day. We find the real fault, quote a clear price before starting, and fix most problems on the first visit with genuine parts, so your food stays safe.
Al Karama Technical LLC repairs refrigerators and freezers of every type and brand at your door across Dubai. Call or WhatsApp, and a technician normally arrives the same day. They diagnose the fault, explain it, give you a fixed quote, and complete most repairs, including thermostat, fan, defrost, relay and gas refilling jobs, in a single visit.
In Dubai’s heat a fridge works harder than almost anywhere in the world, and when it stops, the clock starts. Meat, dairy and medicines can become unsafe within hours. That’s why our service is built around speed: technicians spread across the city, vans stocked with common refrigeration parts, and a booking line that answers.
When you search for fridge repair near me, you want someone who can arrive quickly and fix the problem properly the first time. Our technicians work on single-door, double-door, side-by-side, French-door and built-in refrigerators, plus chest and upright freezers, in apartments, villas, offices, restaurants and shops.
Every visit follows the same honest process. We test the cooling system, electrics and controls, tell you what’s wrong in plain language, and quote before we touch a screw. If a repair isn’t worth the money, we’ll say so.
These are the refrigerator and freezer faults we see most often in Dubai, what usually causes them, and how our technicians repair them.
| Symptom | Most likely cause | How we fix it |
|---|---|---|
| Fridge not cooling, freezer still cold | Blocked evaporator fan, failed defrost heater or timer, damper fault | Clear ice build-up, replace fan motor, defrost heater, timer or damper |
| Fridge and freezer both warm | Compressor start relay or capacitor, condenser fan, gas leak, dirty condenser coils | Replace relay or capacitor, clean coils, locate leak and recharge gas, repair compressor |
| Freezer frosting or icing up | Defrost heater, thermostat or sensor failure, worn door gasket | Test and replace defrost parts, fit new gasket |
| Water leaking inside or under the fridge | Blocked defrost drain, cracked drain pan, faulty water inlet valve | Flush the drain, replace pan or inlet valve |
| Compressor clicking on and off | Overload protector or start relay, low voltage, overheating | Replace relay or overload, check supply, improve ventilation |
| Loud buzzing, humming or rattling | Worn condenser or evaporator fan, compressor mounts, ice on fan blades | Replace fan motors, tighten mounts, defrost and repair |
| Fridge running constantly | Dirty condenser coils, weak door seal, faulty thermostat, low gas | Clean coils, replace seal or thermostat, recharge gas |
| Fridge won't turn on | Power cord, control board, door switch or thermostat failure | Electrical testing, replace faulty component or PCB |
| Ice maker or water dispenser not working | Frozen fill tube, inlet valve, clogged filter, ice maker module | Thaw and clear lines, replace valve, filter or module |
| Error code on display | Sensor, fan, defrost or inverter board fault | Read the code, test components, repair or replace board |
A freezer that won’t hold -18°C puts a lot of food at risk, and the fault is often different from a fridge problem. Our freezer repair Dubai service covers chest freezers, upright freezers, the freezer section of combination fridge-freezers and commercial freezers.
The faults we fix most are defrost-system failures that cause heavy frost, broken door seals, failed evaporator fans, thermostat and sensor faults, start-relay problems and refrigerant leaks. We also repair built-in ice makers. See our dedicated ice maker repair in Dubai service for automatic ice machines.
Searching for freezer repair near me late in the day? Tell us when your freezer failed and what’s inside. We prioritise callouts where stock or large quantities of food are at risk.
From a studio mini-fridge to a four-door smart refrigerator, we have the tools and experience to repair it.
The most common home fridges, top- or bottom-mount freezer, all sizes.
Full-height fridge and freezer, often with water and ice dispensers.
Premium models with multiple zones, inverter compressors and smart controls.
Fridges behind kitchen cabinetry, removed and refitted with care.
Deep freezers for homes, villas, shops and restaurants.
Compact fridges for bedrooms, offices, hotels and wine storage.
For a restaurant, café, hotel, supermarket or clinic, a failed chiller means lost stock and possible food-safety problems. We give commercial refrigeration callouts priority, carry common parts for commercial units, and offer planned maintenance contracts so problems are caught before they become breakdowns.
Door seals, evaporator and condenser units, temperature control and alarm faults.
Restaurant and café units with overworked compressors, coil blockages or thermostat faults.
Supermarket and bakery displays with condensation, lighting or cooling problems.
Chest and upright freezers for kitchens, shops and cold stores.
Catching these early usually means a smaller, cheaper repair and no lost food.
Regular servicing is the cheapest way to avoid a breakdown in the middle of summer. A professional fridge maintenance visit includes condenser coil cleaning, door gasket inspection, drain line flushing, fan and compressor checks, a temperature and gas pressure test, and a written note of anything that needs attention.
Households usually book once a year. Restaurants, cafés, hotels and shops with several refrigeration units benefit from quarterly visits under an annual maintenance contract, with priority response if something fails.
Share the brand, model and symptoms. We book the earliest slot, often the same day.
We check the compressor, gas pressure, fans, defrost system, sensors and electrics.
You see the price before work starts. No hidden charges, no pressure.
We fix the fault, then confirm the fridge and freezer are reaching safe temperatures.
Different manufacturers use different compressors, control boards and error codes. Our technicians work on these systems every day, so diagnosis is quick and accurate:
We also repair Samsung, Bosch, Electrolux, Panasonic, Hitachi, Toshiba, Sharp, Haier, Midea, Zanussi, AEG, Ariston, Candy, Daewoo, Aftron, Sub-Zero, Liebherr and GE refrigerators, using genuine or brand-compatible parts.
Most new refrigerators sold in Dubai use inverter compressors, No Frost airflow and electronic controls. They’re quieter and use less power, but they need different diagnostic skills from older fridges. An inverter fridge that stops cooling may have a failed inverter board rather than a failed compressor, and replacing the wrong part wastes money.
Our technicians use proper test equipment to check the inverter board, compressor windings, sensors and fan motors before recommending anything. We also repair Wi-Fi-connected smart fridges, digital displays, touch control panels, and multi-zone French-door models with separate cooling circuits.
If your fridge shows an error code, send us a photo on WhatsApp. It often tells us exactly which part to bring, which speeds up your fridge repair in Dubai and avoids a second visit.

Our vans carry the parts that fail most often, so many repairs are finished in one trip. Less common parts are sourced quickly from authorised suppliers.
Fridge repair costs in Dubai depend on the fault, the brand and model, and whether a part needs replacing. As a guide, these are typical ranges for common jobs. Your technician always gives a fixed quote after diagnosis and before any work begins.
| Type of job | Typical price range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic visit | AED 100 – 150 | Often adjusted against the repair if you go ahead |
| Minor repair (thermostat, door gasket, fan, relay) | AED 200 – 400 | Usually fixed in one visit |
| Gas refilling and leak repair | Quoted after pressure test | Depends on leak location and gas type |
| Major repair (compressor, control board) | AED 500 – 1,000+ | Depends on brand, model and part availability |
Prices are indicative and can change with part availability. Commercial refrigeration and premium built-in brands are quoted individually.
A good rule of thumb: repairing is usually worthwhile when the fridge is under about 10 years old and the repair costs less than half the price of a comparable new one. Most everyday faults (fans, thermostats, relays, door seals, defrost parts and sensors) are well worth fixing.
Replacement is worth considering when:
Our technician will set out both options with honest numbers so you can decide.
Refrigerators in the UAE face conditions they were rarely designed for. Kitchens and store rooms can get very hot in summer, so compressors run longer and wear sooner. Dust coats condenser coils and traps heat. Humidity makes door gaskets and defrost systems work harder, and voltage fluctuations can damage relays and control boards.
A few simple habits prevent most breakdowns:
Keep a thermometer inside: food-safety authorities such as the U.S. FDA recommend 4°C (40°F) or below for the fridge and -18°C (0°F) for the freezer. If yours can’t hold those temperatures, it’s time to call a technician.

Straight answers to the questions Dubai customers ask us most.
It depends on the fault and part. As a guide, a diagnostic visit is typically AED 100–150, minor repairs such as a thermostat, fan or door gasket are around AED 200–400, and major work like a compressor or control board can be AED 500–1,000 or more. You get a fixed quote before any work starts.
Usually the evaporator fan has failed, the coils behind the freezer panel have iced up because of a defrost fault, or the air damper between the compartments is stuck. These are common, repairable faults.
When both the fridge and freezer are warm, the likely causes are a failed compressor start relay or capacitor, a dead condenser fan, very dirty condenser coils, a refrigerant leak or a control board fault. A technician needs to test the system to confirm which.
In most cases, yes. Call or WhatsApp early in the day and we can usually send a technician the same day anywhere in Dubai. Emergency callouts are available when food or commercial stock is at risk.
Yes. We repair chest freezers, upright freezers, fridge-freezers and commercial freezers at your location across Dubai, including defrost faults, icing, gas leaks, fans and thermostats.
Heavy frost usually means the automatic defrost system has failed (heater, timer, thermostat or sensor), or the door seal is letting in warm, humid air. Both are straightforward repairs.
The most common cause is a blocked defrost drain, which sends water into the fridge or onto the floor. Other causes are a cracked drain pan, a loose water line or a faulty inlet valve on models with a dispenser.
Yes. We first pressure-test the system to find the leak, because a fridge only loses gas when there’s a leak. Then we repair it and recharge with the correct refrigerant for your model.
Buzzing, rattling or grinding often comes from a worn condenser or evaporator fan, ice hitting the fan blades, or loose compressor mounts. Repeated clicking usually points to the start relay or overload protector.
Generally yes if it’s under about 10 years old and the repair costs less than half the price of a new one. For older fridges with compressor failure or leaks inside the cabinet walls, replacement often makes more sense, and we’ll tell you honestly.
