What the listings say about refrigerator repair in Mississippi

Counted from the 11 profiles above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.

Mississippi holds 11 listed refrigerator repair businesses, out of 676 nationwide. That ranks 33rd of the 50 states with any, behind Wisconsin on 13 and Texas on 27. Every business listed in Mississippi covers it, so this page and the Mississippi directory hold the same 11 businesses.

Their ratings average 4.4, against 4.6 across all 676 listed nationwide, and 8 of the 11 sit at 4.5 or better. None holds a straight 5.0, and 1 sits below 4.0. Between them they carry 375 reviews, the largest single tally being 98 on Brown's Appliance Guys LLC in Pearl. 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 Brown's Appliance Guys LLC in Pearl (98 reviews, 4.5), Jay's Appliance Repair LLC in Gulfport (87 reviews, 4.4) and Alvin's Repair Service, Inc. in Jackson (65 reviews, 3.2). By rating it is Brown's Appliance Guys LLC at 4.5 on 98 reviews, McKinney Appliance & Satellite Services at 4.5 on 20 reviews and Varner Service Company at 4.5 on 20 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 11 state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. On top of that, 9 show a Better Business Bureau accreditation in the profiles. 1 of the 11 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.

5 of the 11 publish a founding year: the longest-established has been trading since 1989, and the median across those that say is 31 years. Jackson holds the most at 4 — 36% of the group — followed by Gulfport on 2, across 7 Mississippi cities with an index page. Between them they name 32 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 refrigerator faults, and whether each is homeowner work or a job for a licensed technician.

All 8 faults
  • Fridge side is warm but the freezer is still cold

    Technician

    The evaporator fan has stopped, or the damper between the two compartments is stuck shut. One evaporator cools both sides on most modern units, so the freezer holds temperature longest.

    Step-by-step: Refrigerator Not Cooling
  • Nothing is cold and the compressor clicks every few minutes

    Technician

    A failed start relay or overload protector. The relay plugs into the side of the compressor and rattles when it has failed — the classic five-second test.

    Step-by-step: Refrigerator Not Cooling
  • Runs constantly and the back or bottom grille is hot

    Homeowner fix

    Condenser coils choked with dust and pet hair. The compressor can never reach its cut-out temperature, so it simply never stops.

    Step-by-step: Refrigerator Running Constantly
  • Water pooling under the crisper drawers or ice on the freezer floor

    Homeowner fix

    A blocked defrost drain — usually a plug of ice in the drain tube behind the rear freezer panel. Melt water backs up and finds the lowest point.

    Step-by-step: Refrigerator Leaking Water
  • Thick frost building on the back wall of the freezer

    Technician

    The defrost heater, bimetal thermostat, or adaptive defrost control has quit, so the automatic defrost cycle never runs and the evaporator ices over.

Try these before you book a Mississippi technician

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

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 with a brush attachment

    Every 6 months, every 3 with pets

    Prevents: The single most common no-cooling call, plus premature compressor wear.

  • Flush the defrost drain with warm water

    Twice a year

    Prevents: Water under the crispers and ice sheets on the freezer floor.

  • Dollar-bill test every door seal

    Twice a year

    Prevents: Constant running, frost build-up, and a compressor that never rests.

What refrigerator 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.

Full cost breakdown →
Typical refrigerator repair jobs with national cost ranges.
RepairParts + labor
Condenser coil clean and airflow checkOften folded into the diagnostic call.$80–$150
Compressor start relay or overloadPart is under $40 — the rest is the trip and diagnosis.$150–$300
Evaporator or condenser fan motorBottom-freezer access takes longer, so labor runs higher.$180–$400
Defrost heater, thermostat, or control boardBoard failures sit at the top of the range.$200–$450
Water inlet valve or ice maker moduleAsk for both to be tested — one failure masks the other.$180–$400
Door gasket replacementPriced per door; a French-door cabinet needs two.$150–$350

13–15 years for a plain top-freezer or bottom-freezer cabinet. Side-by-side and French-door models with through-the-door ice and water land nearer 11–13, because the dispenser, the icemaker and the second door seal are all extra things to fail.

Refrigerator repair in Mississippi — common questions

How many refrigerator repair pros are listed in Mississippi?
11 businesses listed in Mississippi name refrigerator repair among the work they do — 100% of the 11 businesses this directory holds for the state, 33rd of the 50 states with any, out of 676 listed nationwide — 2% of them. Jackson accounts for 4 of them. The directory is a sample of the market, not a register of every company trading in Mississippi.
Which refrigerator repair companies are rated highest in Mississippi?
Brown's Appliance Guys LLC in Pearl at 4.5 on 98 reviews, McKinney Appliance & Satellite Services in Canton at 4.5 on 20 reviews, Varner Service Company in Brandon at 4.5 on 20 reviews — that is the order the list on this page uses. Ratings and review counts come from the businesses' own public profiles and are not verified here.
How much does refrigerator repair cost in Mississippi?
Expect $200–$400 for a common refrigerator 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 11 listed here before authorizing anything.
Which Mississippi city has the most refrigerator repair companies?
Jackson, with 4 of the 11 — 36% of the group — followed by Gulfport on 2. 7 Mississippi cities in total have at least one.
Are refrigerator repair technicians licensed in Mississippi?
All 11 listed here state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. 9 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 refrigerator repair in Mississippi?
1 of the 11 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 refrigerator brands do Mississippi repair pros service?
The refrigerator pros listed in Mississippi name 12 distinct brands between them. The most widely covered are Frigidaire (11), GE (11), LG (11), Maytag (11), Samsung (11), Whirlpool (11). Brand matters more here than on any other appliance. Built-in Sub-Zero, Viking and Thermador cabinets use sealed systems and control boards that need model-specific training and parts, and many technicians decline them. Confirm the brand on the phone before booking.
How long have Mississippi refrigerator repair companies been in business?
5 of the 11 publish one. The longest-established has been trading since 1989, and the median across those that say is 31 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 refrigerator?
Apply the 50% rule. A new refrigerator averages $1,200 in the US and lasts about 14 years, so a repair quote over roughly $600 on a unit past 9 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 refrigerator technician in Mississippi?
Model and serial number — the tag is inside the fresh-food compartment, usually on the left wall or behind a crisper. Whether the freezer still freezes. This one answer separates an airflow fault from a sealed-system fault. Any error code shown on the dispenser or control panel. Having those three answers ready is what turns a diagnose-then-return-visit into a single trip.
