Fridge and freezer repairs we do in Athlone
Athlone is a long-established residential suburb with family homes on generous stands in eastern Harare. Fridges here are typically well-used family fridges that are worth repairing rather than replacing, and we repair all of them on site.
Athlone is a settled suburb near Greendale where family fridges are long-serving and worth repairing. Thermostats, seals and regassing are the most common jobs we do here.
Because we are also working in Greendale, Chadcombe and Green Grove most weeks, a visit to Athlone rarely has to wait. Every visit starts with a proper diagnosis using gauges, a multimeter and a thermometer, and you approve the price before any part is fitted.

FAQ
Fridge repair questions from Athlone
My Athlone fridge stopped after a power cut. What is likely wrong?+
Voltage surges when power returns often damage the start relay, capacitor or thermostat, and sometimes the compressor itself. We test each in turn and repair only what has failed. We can also advise on surge protection.
Do you cover the suburbs around Athlone too?+
Yes. Athlone is part of our eastern suburbs route, which covers the whole of eastern Harare. See the Harare East page for every suburb we serve.
Will the technician have parts for my fridge in Athlone?+
We carry the most commonly needed parts: thermostats, relays, capacitors, fan motors, door gaskets and refrigerant. If a model-specific part such as a control board is needed, we source it quickly and return to Athlone to fit it.
How soon can you get to Athlone?+
In most cases the same day, and often within a couple of hours. We work Athlone as part of a daily route, so call 0782 886 252 and we will give you a realistic arrival time rather than a vague promise.
