Frigidaire appliance repair across Westside LA

Frigidaire is one of the oldest and most recognizable names in American appliances — founded in 1918, it popularized the electric home refrigerator so thoroughly that the brand name became shorthand for the appliance itself. Today, owned by Electrolux, it’s a full mainstream line covering refrigerators, ranges, dishwashers, and laundry. We service Frigidaire routinely across Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Culver City, Hollywood, Mid-City, and the beach cities.

A value brand with strong parts support

Frigidaire’s biggest practical advantage is parts. Owned by Electrolux, it shares components and distribution with the Electrolux-branded line, so parts are inexpensive and well-stocked. That keeps repair economics favorable — a Frigidaire is often worth fixing where a pricier brand’s repair would be borderline.

Known failure patterns

We see the same Frigidaire issues repeatedly: ice maker and water inlet valve failures, defrost-system and evaporator-fan problems on refrigerators, oven igniters and bake elements, dishwasher control boards, and front-load washer door boots and drain pumps. This predictability makes diagnostics fast and quotes accurate.

A practical choice for rentals and condos

Frigidaire is a frequent pick for rental units, condos, and family kitchens across Westside LA, and its affordable parts make it easy to keep running.

Common Frigidaire issues we fix

Frigidaire refrigerator water inlet valve / ice maker

Frigidaire ice makers and water inlet valves are a common failure point — hard-water buildup restricts flow, ice maker stops or makes small ice.

Typical cost: $220–$380

Frigidaire refrigerator defrost / evaporator fan

Defrost heater, defrost thermostat, or evaporator fan motor failures cause frost buildup and uneven cooling. Common on side-by-side and French-door units.

Typical cost: $280–$480

Frigidaire range igniter / bake element

Gas oven igniters weaken and electric bake elements fail predictably. Straightforward replacement.

Typical cost: $220–$360

Frigidaire dishwasher control board / pump

Control-board or wash-pump failure at 7-10 years. Electrolux-platform parts are widely available.

Typical cost: $300–$540

Frigidaire front-load washer door boot / drain pump

Front-load door boot seals tear and drain pumps clog or fail at 6-9 years. Standard service.

Typical cost: $240–$420

Frequently asked questions

Who owns Frigidaire?

Frigidaire is owned by Electrolux, the Swedish global appliance maker. Frigidaire is the North American mainstream line, while Electrolux-branded products sit slightly above it. The two share many components and the same parts distribution, so availability is strong and we service both with the same expertise.

Is Frigidaire a good appliance brand?

Frigidaire is a solid mainstream value brand. It's a frequent choice for rentals, condos, and family kitchens where price and parts availability matter more than premium features. Reliability is industry-average; the real advantage is that parts are inexpensive and well-stocked through Electrolux, which keeps repair economics favorable.

Did Frigidaire invent the refrigerator?

Frigidaire didn't invent refrigeration, but it popularized the self-contained electric home refrigerator in the early 1900s and the name became so common that 'fridge' and 'Frigidaire' were nearly synonymous for decades. Founded in 1918, it's one of the oldest names in American appliances.

My Frigidaire ice maker stopped working — common problem?

Very common. Frigidaire ice makers and water inlet valves are a known weak point, usually from hard-water mineral buildup restricting the valve, or from the ice maker assembly itself failing. It's a routine, affordable repair. We diagnose on-site and quote flat-rate before any work.

Should I repair my Frigidaire appliance or replace it?

Because Frigidaire parts are inexpensive and widely available, repair is usually worthwhile under 10 years and often longer for refrigerators. Under 8 years, almost always repair. 8-12 years, repair if it's one well-understood component (inlet valve, igniter, control board, pump). Over 12 years on a low-cost unit, we'll give you an honest replace-vs-repair call.

Service call cost for Frigidaire?

Standard $85 service call, waived when you proceed with the repair. Flat-rate quote provided before any work begins.
