We help solve common Maytag freezer repair issues
Sears Home Services will handle Maytag freezer repairs for units attached to your refrigerator as well as freestanding freezers. During a service call, the appliance repair experts can diagnose your Maytag freezer issue, recommend maintenance, troubleshoot common issues, and, if necessary, make repairs fast. Whether you bought your freezer from Sears or from somewhere else, we can help.
Freezer is too warm
Freezer temperature is important for so many reasons. Cooling issues in a Maytag freezer can be linked to the condenser fan, clogged coils or failing gaskets. It may be caused by food packaging blocking the vents, but if the cause isn't obvious, count on us to take a closer look.
Frost is building up
Ice buildup leads to freezer burned foods and reduced energy-efficiency. If you're noticing changes in your Maytag freezer's auto-defrost cycle or finding more ice build up than normal, start by checking the temperature settings for your freezer.
If you're not able to identify a cause, the technicians at Sears Home Services can help you troubleshoot. Ice build-up isn't a problem isolated to Maytag freezers, and the team is knowledgeable at servicing all major appliances facing this issue.
Strange noises coming from freezer
It's not uncommon for a Maytag freezer to make strange sounds from time to time, but if you're concerned, give the technicians at Sears Home Services a phone call so they can help diagnose the issue.
Popping and cracking noises are often caused by the expansion of internal parts. Occasionally, drips hitting the defrost heater might sound like they're sizzling. In some cases, noises can signal a bigger issue, especially if you have an older appliance.
Freezer won't turn on
When your Maytag freezer suddenly won't turn on, it isn't always easy to self-diagnose. Homeowners should start by checking the breakers and fuses. If everything looks normal, consider calling Sears Home Services so we can help. Our expert repair team might find that it's a bad cold control, thermostat control, an issue with the start relay, a bad defrost timer, or even a bad compressor.
Freezer maintenance
Scheduling regular appliance service on your Maytag freezer helps to ensure that it'll work effectively and efficiently over time. Routine Maytag freezer maintenance can also prevent homeowners from costly, unexpected repairs. Count on the experts at Sears Home Services, and they can help you learn more about the Kitchen Appliance Check-up package and Home Warranty options.

Maytag freezer repair FAQ
How much does it cost to repair a Maytag freezer?
Costs for freezer repairs can be big or small, depending on the issue. Ice maker repairs are usually inexpensive (less than $100) but larger repairs can cost several hundred dollars. Depending on the extent of the repair and cost of labor, the knowledgeable technicians can also help you understand when it might make sense to buy a new appliance.
Is it worth repairing an old Maytag freezer?
Maytag freezers can last 10-20 years or longer with proper maintenance. Our certified technicians can help determine whether the repair required makes sense based on the age of the appliance. There's often a tradeoff, but one benefit to replacing your old freezer is that modern appliances are more efficient.
One perk: the cost of buying a new Maytag freezer may be offset by a reduction in your energy bills.
How do you repair a Maytag freezer?
Maytag freezer repairs are always best handled by a certified specialist. Our expert repair specialists may recommend that the freezer be emptied and defrosted before service so its accessibility isn't hindered. It's likely that the repair man would pull your Maytag freezer away from the wall to troubleshoot any issues and repairs from all angles. The method and time spent making a repair depends on the Maytag freezer issue.
Is it worth repairing a Maytag freezer with a broken seal?
You may be quick to consider buying a replacement, but broken seals are one of the easiest parts to replace in a Maytag freezer. The material itself is cheap, and it doesn't take long for a technician to get the job done. If your Maytag freezer's only issue is a broken seal, simple maintenance will make it possible to extend the life of your appliance.
What are the benefits of repairing a Maytag freezer?
Maytag appliances like freezers can last for a long time. Property owners who prioritize simple, inexpensive repairs can save space in the landfill (and save money, too).
