Common Refrigerator Repair in Matthews symptoms
If you're noticing any of these, it's time for a diagnostic.
Refrigerator not cooling
This is one of the most common and concerning refrigerator issues. It can manifest as the interior not getting cold enough, or the freezer section not freezing properly. You might notice food spoiling faster than usual.
Refrigerator leaking water
A puddle around your refrigerator can be alarming. This issue often stems from a clogged defrost drain line, a faulty water inlet valve, or a damaged drain pan. Prompt attention can prevent water damage to your floors.
Ice maker not working
If your ice maker has stopped producing ice, or is producing very little ice, it could be due to a few common problems. These might include a frozen or clogged water line, a faulty ice maker module, or a problem with the water inlet valve.
Refrigerator making strange noises
Unusual sounds like buzzing, clicking, rattling, or humming can indicate various problems. These noises often point to issues with the condenser fan motor, evaporator fan motor, or the compressor.
Freezer is too cold, but refrigerator is warm
This specific symptom, often called the 'freezer works, fridge doesn't' problem, typically points to an issue with air circulation between the freezer and refrigerator compartments. The damper control or the evaporator fan may be malfunctioning.
When to call us right away
A handful of symptoms that mean it's time to stop and bring in a pro.
Burning smell or electrical smoke
If you detect a burning smell coming from your refrigerator or see any smoke, immediately unplug the unit from the wall outlet and call for professional service. This could indicate a serious electrical issue.
Significant water leakage
While minor condensation can occur, a constant and substantial flow of water pooling around or under your refrigerator warrants professional attention. This could indicate a more serious internal leak or a drainage system failure.

How our repair process works
Five steps from your first call to the warranty receipt. No surprises.
- 1
Inspection
Your technician examines the appliance, listens to your description, and notes the model + serial for parts lookup. Visual + audio-based diagnostics first — non-invasive.
- 2
Diagnostics
Targeted tests on the failing subsystem (compressor, control board, heating element, motor, etc.) to identify the exact root cause. You get a clear explanation, not jargon.
- 3
Fix decision
Up-front estimate before any work begins: cost, parts, and the realistic likelihood of success vs. recommending replacement on an old or uneconomical unit. You decide.
- 4
Operational test
After the repair we run the appliance through its normal cycle on-site — never "it should work now, call us if it doesn't." You sign off when it's actually working.
- 5
Warranty + consultation
Receipt with warranty terms in writing. Plus a quick walkthrough of how to extend the appliance's life (filter cleaning, drain maintenance, etc.) — included free.

Called Star appliance when our 5 year old Lg refrigerator went out. Had waited two days for lg to send a repair company out and the other company never showed up. I called star and Sean was at our house that afternoon. He dealt with lg, handled the warranty…
Today we replaced my garbage disposal. I think it was the fifth time I called Sean in the past six years. They are competent and price is sensible, but I always call Star because I trust them. Twice in the past they advised me to spend a little more and rep…
Wow. Same day service, extremely detailed and clean! Honest, reliable! Even had to come back for an extra issue and took care of that as well! This was for our LG fridge…but there will be more for sure! Our new go-to appliance guy!
