Professional freezer defrost and deep clean - ice buildup safely removed, interior thoroughly cleaned. Your freezer working efficiently again with full capacity restored.
### Ice Is Stealing Your Space
That buildup isn't just annoying. **Ice coating reduces freezer capacity and makes it work harder** - using more electricity and shortening its life. Time to defrost properly.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Best time to defrost is when freezer is low on contents. Easier to manage and less to keep cold elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions about Freezer defrost and clean in Exmouth
How long does defrosting take?
Active defrosting with us takes 1-2 hours. We speed it up safely - don't use heat sources that damage plastic. Natural defrosting takes 6-12 hours.
What happens to my frozen food?
You'll need to plan for this. We can use cool boxes during the clean, but ideally use up frozen food beforehand or store elsewhere temporarily.
Why does my freezer ice up so quickly?
Door seal issues, frequent opening, or putting warm food in. After cleaning, we check the seal and can advise on what's causing the buildup.
Is the ice at the back normal?
Some frost is normal. Thick ice coating isn't - it means the auto-defrost isn't working or there's a seal problem. Worth addressing before it gets worse.
