Repair guidance / Caple / BR3
Water collects below the drawers
Note whether water gathers inside the fresh-food section, under the cabinet or near a door edge. Those locations suggest different inspection routes. Keep food protected and avoid pouring chemicals or forcing objects into an unfamiliar drainage opening.
A different pattern: the freezer temperature rises
Report the warning indication, any existing temperature reading and whether food has begun to soften. Do not rely on the sound of the appliance as proof that food is being kept cold. This service excludes compressor replacement and sealed refrigerant-circuit work.
A fitted appliance behind a furniture door
Describe the visible furniture panel, plinth and surrounding cupboards. A built-in appliance needs its access and connection arrangement checked before removal; do not detach cabinetry or pull the appliance forward to make the enquiry.
Identify this Caple model
Provide the complete model and serial number from a safely accessible rating label. Do not remove panels or move heavy equipment to find it.

Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “water collects below the drawers”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “water collects below the drawers”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the freezer temperature rises”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Beckenham postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the freezer temperature rises” change the enquiry?
Treat that as additional evidence rather than proof that both symptoms have one cause. Explain whether the two patterns began together or appeared at different times. Include the fitting context — a fitted appliance behind a furniture door — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
