What the listings say about freezer repair in Mississippi

Counted from the 9 profiles above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.

Mississippi holds 9 listed freezer repair businesses, out of 402 nationwide. That ranks 19th of the 50 states with any, level with Maryland and behind Florida on 14. They are 9 of the 11 businesses listed in Mississippi — 82% of the state directory.

Their ratings average 4.3, against 4.6 across all 402 listed nationwide, and 6 of the 9 sit at 4.5 or better. None holds a straight 5.0, and 1 sits below 4.0. Between them they carry 257 reviews, the largest single tally being 87 on Jay's Appliance Repair LLC in Gulfport. Rating and review volume are what the businesses' own public profiles report — treat a high average on six reviews differently from the same average on six hundred.

By review volume the group is led by Jay's Appliance Repair LLC in Gulfport (87 reviews, 4.4), Alvin's Repair Service, Inc. in Jackson (65 reviews, 3.2) and Varner Service Company in Brandon (20 reviews, 4.5). By rating it is Varner Service Company at 4.5 on 20 reviews, Anderson Home Repair LLC at 4.5 on 15 reviews and Tom's Appliance Repair at 4.5 on 15 reviews. Those are two different questions and they rarely give the same answer — volume tells you a company has been doing this at scale, a high average on a handful of reviews tells you much less.

All 9 state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. On top of that, 7 show a Better Business Bureau accreditation in the profiles. 1 of the 9 advertises 24/7 emergency callout. All of that is self-stated in the listing, not verified here: ask for the license number and a current certificate of insurance, and for anything that opens a sealed refrigerant system ask to see federal EPA Section 608 certification, which is required in all fifty states.

3 of the 9 publish a founding year: the longest-established has been trading since 1989, and the median across those that say is 33 years. Gulfport holds the most at 2 — 22% of the group — level with Jackson, across 7 Mississippi cities with an index page. Between them they name 29 distinct towns, suburbs and neighborhoods in their stated service areas, so coverage reaches well past the cities listed here — give your address when you call rather than assuming.

What Mississippi technicians find most often

The 5 most common freezer faults, and whether each is homeowner work or a job for a licensed technician.

All 8 faults
  • Not holding temperature but still running

    Homeowner fix

    Condenser coils packed with dust, a failed door gasket, or a thermostat that has drifted out of calibration.

    Step-by-step: Freezer Not Freezing
  • Heavy frost build-up on the walls

    Technician

    On a frost-free model, a failed defrost heater or thermostat. On a manual-defrost chest freezer, a door seal letting humid air in.

    Step-by-step: Freezer Frost Buildup
  • Runs constantly and never cycles off

    Technician

    A low refrigerant charge, a dirty condenser, or a compressor losing efficiency. Long run times are the first warning of all three.

  • Warm spots in an upright freezer while other shelves are fine

    Technician

    The evaporator fan has stopped circulating air, or the vents are blocked by packed contents.

    Step-by-step: Freezer Not Freezing
  • Lid or door will not seal and frost forms around the opening

    Homeowner fix

    A compressed or hardened gasket, or a lid that has warped. Gaskets are inexpensive and homeowner-replaceable on most chest freezers.

Try these before you book a Mississippi technician

8 published freezer guides. A diagnostic fee is $50–$120 before any work starts, so half an hour with a flashlight is worth spending.

All guides →

Keep the next call from happening

Ask the technician to walk you through these while they are on site — every one of them prevents a fault in the list above.

  • Vacuum the condenser coils

    Every 6 months

    Prevents: Long run times, high energy use, and premature compressor wear.

  • Manually defrost when frost passes 1/4 in.

    Annually, or as needed

    Prevents: Lost capacity and a compressor working against an insulating ice layer.

  • Check the lid or door gasket seals along its whole length

    Twice a year

    Prevents: The humid-air ingress behind most frost build-up.

What freezer repair costs in Mississippi

National ranges for parts and labor together, before the $50–$120 diagnostic. Labor tracks local wages and drive time, so metro Mississippi sits toward the top of each range and rural calls toward the bottom, while the part costs about the same anywhere. Nothing here is a quote.

RepairParts + labor
Condenser clean and thermostat calibrationResolves a large share of not-cold-enough calls.$80–$150
Door or lid gasketChest freezer gaskets are often a homeowner job.$120–$280
Thermostat or cold controlCommon on older manual-defrost units.$150–$300

Defrost heater or defrost thermostatFrost-free models only.$200–$400
Compressor start relayCheap part; confirm the compressor itself is sound.$150–$300

12–16 years, and chest freezers regularly exceed that. They have the fewest moving parts of any appliance in the house — no fan, no defrost system, no icemaker. When replacing beats repairing covers the 4 cases where the maths turns, in full.

Freezer repair in Mississippi — common questions

How many freezer repair pros are listed in Mississippi?
9 businesses listed in Mississippi name freezer repair among the work they do — 82% of the 11 businesses this directory holds for the state, 19th of the 50 states with any, out of 402 listed nationwide — 2% of them. Gulfport accounts for 2 of them. The directory is a sample of the market, not a register of every company trading in Mississippi.
Which freezer repair companies are rated highest in Mississippi?
Varner Service Company in Brandon at 4.5 on 20 reviews, Anderson Home Repair LLC in Dennis at 4.5 on 15 reviews, Tom's Appliance Repair in Hernando at 4.5 on 15 reviews — that is the order the list on this page uses. The most-reviewed is different: Jay's Appliance Repair LLC in Gulfport, with 87 reviews at 4.4. Read both — a 5.0 on nine reviews and a 4.6 on four hundred are not the same claim.
How much does freezer repair cost in Mississippi?
Expect $150–$400 for a common freezer repair, parts and labor together, on top of a $50–$120 diagnostic fee that most companies credit against the work if you go ahead. Those are national bands, not Mississippi quotes: labor rates track local wages and drive time, so a dense metro sits at the top of each range and a rural call at the bottom, while the part itself costs about the same anywhere. Get written estimates from two or three of the 9 listed here before authorizing anything.
Which Mississippi city has the most freezer repair companies?
Gulfport, with 2 of the 9 — 22% of the group — followed by Jackson on 2. 7 Mississippi cities in total have at least one.
Are freezer repair technicians licensed in Mississippi?
All 9 listed here state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. 7 also show a Better Business Bureau accreditation. Licensing for appliance repair is set state by state and sometimes by city or county, so the reliable check is the paperwork: ask which license the company works under, get the number, and confirm it with the issuing authority. Two requirements are national rather than local — sealed refrigerant work needs federal EPA Section 608 certification, and gas work needs a technician qualified for gas appliances.
Can I get same-day or emergency freezer repair in Mississippi?
1 of the 9 listed here advertises 24/7 emergency availability and carries a badge in the ranked list above. Many of the others take same-day work for common faults without advertising it, so it is worth asking — especially early in the day, before the route is full.
Which freezer brands do Mississippi repair pros service?
The freezer pros listed in Mississippi name 12 distinct brands between them. The most widely covered are Frigidaire (9), GE (9), LG (9), Maytag (9), Samsung (9), Whirlpool (9). Freezer parts are widely interchangeable and most technicians who service refrigerators service freezers. The exception is a built-in or column freezer from Sub-Zero, Thermador or Viking, which needs the same brand-specific coverage as the matching refrigerator.
How long have Mississippi freezer repair companies been in business?
3 of the 9 publish one. The longest-established has been trading since 1989, and the median across those that say is 33 years. Use it as one signal among several: what matters more is whether the technician has opened your platform before, and whether the warranty term is written on the invoice.
Should I repair or replace my freezer?
Apply the 50% rule. A new freezer averages $600 in the US and lasts about 15 years, so a repair quote over roughly $300 on a unit past 10 years old is usually money better spent on a replacement. Below that line, with life left on the clock, repair almost always wins. Ask for parts and labor as separate figures — it is normally the part, not the hours, that pushes a quote past the threshold.
What should I have ready before calling a freezer technician in Mississippi?
Chest or upright, and frost-free or manual-defrost. The current internal temperature from a thermometer, not the dial setting. Where the unit lives — garage, basement, or heated space. Having those three answers ready is what turns a diagnose-then-return-visit into a single trip.
