Food freezing in the fridge: report where it happens
Food freezing near one shelf is different from the whole cabinet appearing too cold. Bosch notes that temperature settings and food obstructing air vents can contribute. Record the setting and where affected items were stored, without repeatedly changing controls. The model's storage instructions are relevant; this symptom does not by itself establish that a thermostat or sensor needs replacing.
Poor cooling with a door that does not close normally
Look only for visible obstructions such as a protruding container or misplaced drawer, without forcing the door. Report a visible gap, damaged seal or furniture door that appears to interfere. Bosch's door guidance distinguishes obstruction from alignment or seal issues. Leave hinge adjustments, fitted panels and appliance removal to an agreed professional assessment.
Describe water by its location and timing
Say whether you found water beneath salad drawers, on a shelf or on the floor outside, and whether cooling also changed. Bosch describes more than one possible reason for water in a fridge; location is useful information, not a diagnosis. Do not probe drainage openings, remove internal panels or dismantle the cabinet to find a cause.
Confirm that it is one separate refrigerator
An under-counter fridge beside a separate freezer is two appliances, not necessarily one fridge-freezer. Mention any small ice compartment and say whether the fridge stands alone or sits behind a furniture door. If more than one appliance needs attention, list them separately so the office can agree the work rather than assuming one enquiry covers both.
Prepare the model and fault details
Provide the complete model, symptoms and whether the fridge is integrated. Do not move a heavy fitted appliance to reach its label.
- Full Bosch model reference and approximate appliance size.
- Too warm, unusually cold or inconsistent cooling, with affected areas.
- Visible water or ice and any available temperature readings.
- Door-closing behaviour and freestanding or integrated installation.
Bosch’s model finder identifies the E-Nr, FD and serial-number details on the appliance rating label.

Use an accessible label or appliance paperwork. Leave fitted units, heavy appliances and electrical covers in place. If you cannot reach the label safely, tell the office. Include any displayed message exactly as shown and describe what happened before the fault, without running repeated tests.
Access to the appliance at your address
Give the house or flat number, full postcode and the best contact for the visit. Mention stairs, lift or concierge arrangements, controlled parking and any restrictions on reaching the appliance. Tell us whether it is fitted behind a kitchen door, stacked or in a narrow cupboard.
For a tenant's domestic appliance, identify who can authorise the work and who will provide access. The office checks these arrangements before agreeing an appointment.

If you are considering a replacement
For a replacement integrated fridge, provide the cabinet opening, existing model and furniture-door fixing arrangement. The office needs those details as well as the proposed new appliance before confirming a fitting.

Fridge repair questions
Why can some food freeze even though other fridge shelves seem normal?
The setting and the position of food relative to airflow can matter. Note the affected position and consult your model's storage guidance. Persistent uneven cooling still needs assessment rather than an assumed part replacement.
Should I order a new door seal before asking for help?
No. An obstructed drawer, the fitting arrangement or a seal problem can all affect closing. Describe the visible issue first; do not order a part solely because the door is difficult to close.
My separate fridge and freezer both have faults. Which page should I use?
Start an enquiry and clearly list the two appliances and each fault. Do not select a combined fridge-freezer simply because the units stand next to each other.
Charges, scope and confirming a visit
We review the model, address and work required, explain applicable charges and confirm availability before agreeing a visit. Sending an enquiry does not take payment, reserve an appointment or guarantee a completed repair. Parts availability and the appliance's condition affect the options; further parts or work are discussed before you decide.
UKCDA is an independent repair business. Brand names identify appliances and do not imply manufacturer approval. If a manufacturer guarantee or service plan may cover the appliance, check its arrangements before requesting a chargeable visit.
