How we repair a fridge
- Asking about the fault: when it started and what changed.
- Testing: electrics, compressor, fans, sensors and door seal.
- Price: you are told the fault and the cost of repair before any work.
- Repair: at home where possible.
- Check: cooling measured before leaving.
Fridge refrigerant recharge
The cooling circuit is sealed, so refrigerant runs low only through a leak. The leak is located and brazed, the circuit is evacuated of air and moisture, and the gas is then charged in the type shown on the fridge’s plate (R134a or R600a) and to the stated weight. Recharging over a live leak is money wasted. It starts from SAR 138.

Frequently asked questions
How much does fridge repair cost in Jeddah?
Inspection from SAR 46, deducted from the repair; a simple repair from SAR 138; and compressor replacement from SAR 460 with Bareeq Clean.
Why is the fridge warm while the freezer works?
Usually ice built up on the evaporator from a defrost fault, or a stopped air-circulation fan.
Does a fridge lose refrigerant over time?
No. A shortage means a leak, which is repaired before recharging.
When should I repair a fridge and when replace it?
If the repair costs more than half a new fridge, or it is over 12 years old with a compressor fault, replacement makes more sense.
Is the fridge repaired at home?
Yes for most faults. Compressor replacement and brazing may need it taken away.
What is the right fridge temperature?
4°C for the fridge and −18°C for the freezer.
Why is the fridge leaking water?
A blocked defrost drain, fixed by clearing it.
