Build a clear picture of the temperature change
Record any temperature reading already available and say whether it came from the appliance display or a separate thermometer. Note an alarm, persistent frost, water under drawers or a new running noise without removing covers. These details help the office understand the report; a set temperature on the control panel should not be presented as proof of the actual temperature inside.
Door closure and fitted furniture
Explain whether each door closes normally and whether the appliance is freestanding or concealed behind kitchen fronts. Mention a recent move, installation or change to surrounding cabinetry. Do not pull a heavy appliance out or chip away ice to investigate. If cooling is unreliable, make suitable arrangements for affected contents while the visit is being discussed rather than assuming an appointment restores safe storage immediately.
Prepare the model and fault details
Provide the model, current symptoms and whether one or both compartments are affected. Mention integrated doors or an American-style appliance.
- Bosch model, approximate age if known, and fitted or freestanding layout.
- Which compartment is affected and when the change began.
- Displayed alarms, observed readings and visible ice or water.
- Whether either appliance door or furniture front is difficult to close.
Look for the E-Nr and FD numbers on the rating plate. The exact E-Nr helps distinguish similar-looking models.

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 in Sutton
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 or business 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
If replacement becomes the preferred option, send the integrated cabinet dimensions and furniture-door arrangement. Fridge/freezer split ratios and door fixings need checking alongside the overall appliance size.

Fridge freezer repair questions
Can you assess a fault when only the fridge is warm?
Yes. Make clear that one compartment appears affected and describe the freezer separately. We confirm suitability for the exact appliance; specialist refrigeration work or parts cannot be promised from a website description.
Should I defrost before an engineer sees it?
Tell the office about the ice first and follow the appliance’s own instructions for any normal user care. Do not use sharp tools or added heat to remove it. The team can advise what condition to leave the appliance in for the planned assessment.
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.
