Fridge and freezer repairs we do in Donnybrook
Donnybrook is an industrial and commercial area with factories, workshops, canteens and some housing in eastern Harare. Fridges here are typically commercial refrigeration that cannot be down for long, plus household units in the nearby homes, and we repair all of them on site.
Donnybrook borders the Msasa industrial area, so we repair canteen fridges, workshop chillers and household units in the same trip. We carry parts for commercial and domestic fridges.
Because we are also working in Msasa, Msasa Park and Manresa most weeks, a visit to Donnybrook 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 Donnybrook
Is it worth repairing an old fridge in Donnybrook?+
Usually yes, if the cabinet is sound. A thermostat, relay, fan or regas costs a fraction of a new fridge, and even a compressor replacement is normally far cheaper. We tell you honestly when a fridge is not worth fixing.

Yes. Our phones are answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and we attend genuine emergencies in Donnybrook outside normal hours. For non-urgent faults we will book the next available daytime slot.
What should I do while I wait for the technician in Donnybrook?+
Keep the doors closed as much as possible, move anything valuable from the freezer into a cool box with ice if you have one, and switch the fridge off at the wall if it is making a burning smell or tripping the power.
Can you repair shop and restaurant fridges in Donnybrook?+
Yes. Underbar fridges, beverage coolers, display fridges, chest freezers and small cold rooms are all part of our commercial work, and we can arrange visits around your trading hours in Donnybrook.
