Ice Maker and Freezer Repair Conyers GA
Ice maker repair costs a median of $417 in Bozmanfix records once a part is replaced, and freezer repair $385, with the part, labor and service call added together. Those are company-wide medians from 2,191 completed ice maker jobs and 2,406 freezer jobs.
Reading our Conyers ice maker and freezer invoices one by one tells you something useful: on the ice side the work is heavier than average, and four of the jobs were whole ice maker or ice bin replacements rather than a valve or a tube. That pattern is explained below.

No ice, small or hollow cubes, ice maker leaking into the freezer, freezer running but not holding temperature, frost on the walls, chest freezer dead in the garage. All three Conyers ZIP codes, total confirmed before the work starts.
What an Ice Maker or Freezer Repair Costs, by the Part That Failed
Both tables are company-wide, built from every completed ice maker and freezer job across our service area where a part was replaced. Every figure is the full ticket: the part, the labor and the service call together.
Ice makers sit higher than almost any appliance Bozmanfix services, above the refrigerator at $395 and the oven at $385, because the failure so often lives in the fill system of a French-door refrigerator, behind a door panel or under the freezer floor, and the machine has to come partly apart to reach it.
| Ice maker, what failed | Median total | Jobs (n) |
|---|---|---|
| Frozen fill tube cleared and cause fixed | $432 | 40 |
| Defrost heater or timer | $419 | 70 |
| Water inlet valve | $429 | 69 |
| Evaporator or condenser fan | $438 | 60 |
| Water filter replaced on the visit | $451 | 79 |
| Ice maker module or assembly | $451 | 57 |
| Thermostat or sensor | $470 | 18 |
| Control board | $488 | 32 |
| Freezer, what failed | Median total | Jobs (n) |
|---|---|---|
| Defrost heater or timer | $370 | 203 |
| Door gasket | $397 | 77 |
| Thermostat or sensor | $390 | 81 |
| Evaporator or condenser fan | $396 | 135 |
| Control board | $500 | 51 |
| Compressor | $700 | 107 |
The tables above, resting on 2,191 and 2,406 jobs, are the price to plan around.

Why Ice Makers and Freezers Fail the Way They Do in Conyers
Here the ice maker gets replaced, not repaired 4 OF 4 BIG JOBS
The four largest ice-side jobs in the Bozmanfix Conyers record are all replacements rather than component repairs: a Samsung ice maker at $815, a GE ice bin at $737, a GE ice maker at $490 and another Samsung at $449. Company-wide the module or assembly line sits at $451, so three of those four are above it.
There is a mechanical reason this happens rather than a commercial one. A modern ice maker in a French-door refrigerator is a sealed assembly, a mould, a heater, a motor, an ejector and a thermostat in one housing, sometimes with its own small evaporator, mounted in the door or in the top of the fresh-food cabinet.
When the mould cracks, the ejector strips or the auger seizes, the individual pieces are not separately available, so replacing the assembly is the repair. It is also why an ice bin can cost $737: on some models the bin carries the auger and the crusher and is not a plastic tub.
When a technician tells you an ice maker needs replacing rather than fixing, that is usually the design talking, not a preference.
Freezer complaints are often ambient GARAGE CHEST FREEZERS
The complaints standalone freezers generate are usually ambient rather than mechanical: a garage that hits 100 °F in a Georgia August, a lid left ajar, a unit stacked around with boxes so the condenser cannot breathe, or frost that turns out to be the door seal rather than the defrost system.
Those get diagnosed, explained and not charged for beyond the visit. When a chest freezer does fail properly, it is usually the sealed system, and that is the $700 conversation at the bottom of the second table.
The boil water advisory of 4 to 7 August 2026 NORTH OF I-20
Rockdale Water Resources issued a boil water advisory at 7:30 PM on Tuesday 4 August 2026 for its service area north of Interstate 20, extended it on 6 August when one of twenty samples needed re-testing, and lifted it on 7 August.
This page is where that matters most, because boiling protects drinking water and an ice maker boils nothing: it takes the supply through a carbon filter, which is not a disinfection device, and freezes it as it is.
During any advisory the ice maker should be switched off at the control or by lifting the wire arm, the bin emptied into the sink, and the water dispenser left alone. Once the notice is lifted, run and discard the first two or three batches before you use any ice.
There is a useful side effect: a bin that has been emptied and restarted shows you exactly how fast the machine really makes ice, and if it takes two days to refill, the fill valve at $429 was already weak before the advisory rather than because of it.
Lake water, and the filter that is not on a calendar RANDY POYNTER
Rockdale Water Resources is the sole water supplier in the county and the supply is entirely surface water, drawn from Randy Poynter Lake and the Big Haynes and Little Haynes creeks that feed it, treated at a plant completed in 2002.
There are no wells in the picture, so unlike Fayette County there is no variation from house to house, but there is variation through the year: sediment and mineral load in a reservoir move with rainfall and season.
For an ice maker that means the filter does not clog on a six-month timetable, it clogs when the water changes, and a starved ice maker makes small, hollow, cloudy cubes for weeks before it makes none at all.
The filter is the first thing the technician looks at: tell us when it was last changed, and if it is due it is replaced on the visit, at $451 company-wide at Bozmanfix with the service call included. Guidance is on refrigerator water filter replacement.
Samsung and GE, the two badges on the ice side 815 · 737 · 490 · 449
All four of the ice maker and ice bin replacements in our Conyers record are Samsung or GE, two apiece, and that lines up with what we see across the whole city: Samsung is the leading refrigerator brand in Conyers by a wide margin at 29 tagged jobs, and GE is third at 11.
On Samsung French-door units the ice compartment is the single most common complaint we take anywhere in our service area, which is a design story rather than a quality verdict and is set out in Samsung refrigerator ice maker problems.
The practical consequence for you is about waiting rather than paying: Samsung ice maker assemblies are ordered rather than carried, so we confirm the lead time before you approve the work.
Whirlpool, GE, Frigidaire, Amana and Kenmore parts ride on the van, and the one Kenmore ice job in the Bozmanfix Conyers record was a wire repair at $295 done on the spot.
Two commercial ice machines in the record RESTAURANT SIDE
The Bozmanfix Conyers record also includes two commercial machines: a commercial ice maker installation at $395 and a commercial ice maker service call at $150.
They are worth mentioning because a commercial cuber is a genuinely different machine from the assembly in a kitchen refrigerator, with a separate water circuit, a bin thermostat and a duty cycle measured in hundreds of pounds a day, and its symptoms read differently.
Thin, cloudy or slow production on a commercial machine is usually scale in the water circuit or a dirty condenser rather than a failed module, and cleaning schedules matter more than parts. If you are calling about a machine behind a counter rather than in a kitchen, say so when you book, because it changes what the technician brings.
🚚 Ice maker and freezer calls ride the same Conyers route as the 242 jobs we have run here in the last twelve months, so the van is usually on the I-20 corridor already. A freezer full of food is scheduled ahead of an ice maker that is merely slow.
Match Your Symptom to the Likely Cause
- No ice at all, and the ice maker is switched on – a frozen fill tube at $432, the water inlet valve at $429, or the module or assembly at $451, which in Conyers has meant a full replacement at $449 to $815. Company-wide “no ice at all” runs $419 across 359 Bozmanfix jobs. Start with ice maker not making ice.
- Small, hollow or cloudy cubes – the filter first, then the fill valve at $429. Rockdale’s reservoir water shifts with the season, so this arrives without warning.
- Ice maker leaking into the freezer, or a sheet of ice under the bin – a dripping fill valve or a split fill tube, $429 to $432. Company-wide this is the largest single ice category, 248 Bozmanfix jobs at a median of $392.
- Ice tastes wrong, or the advisory has just been lifted – empty the bin and discard two or three batches, and change the filter if it is due. An ice maker does not disinfect anything it is given.
- Bin jammed, auger not turning, or crushed ice only – the auger and crusher live in the bin on many models, which is why an ice bin replacement in the Bozmanfix Conyers record came to $737 rather than the price of a plastic tub.
- Freezer running but not holding temperature – the defrost heater or timer at $370, an evaporator fan at $396 or a thermostat at $390, and if those test good, the sealed system and a compressor at $700. Company-wide 513 Bozmanfix jobs at $385. On a garage unit the technician rules out the ambient temperature first.
- Frost building on the freezer walls – the defrost system at $370 or a door gasket at $397 letting humid Georgia air in. See freezer frost buildup.
Repair or Replace, on the Company-Wide Numbers
The ice maker decision and the freezer decision point in opposite directions, and the Bozmanfix Conyers record shows both. An ice maker lives inside a refrigerator that is otherwise working, so even an $815 assembly replacement is measured against replacing a whole refrigerator, and it wins comfortably on any unit under about ten years old; that is why all four of the big ice-side jobs in this city were completed.
A standalone freezer is the opposite case. It is usually a second appliance bought for a few hundred dollars, so a $700 compressor is close to replacement cost.
Below the compressor line, at $370 to $500 for a defrost system, a fan, a thermostat or a board, repair is still the sensible answer on a freezer that is not already at the end of its life, and chest freezers in particular run for twenty years on cheap parts.
The lifespan tables are in how long freezers last, the approval figures on appliance repair approval rate, and the arithmetic in the repair versus replacement guide.

Ice Maker and Freezer Repair in Conyers – Questions We Get
How much does ice maker repair cost in Conyers, GA?
Company-wide the Bozmanfix median is $417 once a part is replaced, with the middle half between $341 and $517, from 2,191 completed ice maker jobs counting the part, the labor and the service call. By component: frozen fill tube cleared $432, defrost heater $419, water inlet valve $429, fan motor $438, filter replaced on the visit $451, ice maker module or assembly $451, thermostat $470, control board $488.
Bozmanfix’s own Conyers ice-side jobs ran higher than the module line because they were full replacements: $451, $490, $737 for an ice bin and $815.
Which figures should I plan around for a Conyers ice maker or freezer?
The company-wide tables on this page, which rest on 2,191 Bozmanfix ice maker and 2,406 freezer jobs.
For the refrigerator itself, our Conyers refrigerator page is built on 163 local jobs and carries a local median.
Why does an ice maker get replaced instead of repaired?
Because on most modern refrigerators it is a sealed assembly rather than a set of parts. The mould, the heater, the motor, the ejector and the thermostat sit in one housing, sometimes with a small evaporator of its own, and the individual pieces are not separately available, so when the mould cracks or the auger seizes the assembly is the repair.
That is why all four of the larger ice-side jobs in the Bozmanfix Conyers record are replacements, at $449, $490, $737 and $815. The $737 was an ice bin, which on some models carries the auger and crusher rather than being a plastic tub.
My ice cubes have gone small and hollow. What is that?
The tray is not filling fully, and the first suspect is the water filter. Rockdale’s water is surface water from Randy Poynter Lake and the creeks feeding it, and its sediment and mineral load moves with rainfall and season, so a filter here clogs when the water changes rather than on a tidy six-month schedule.
Tell us when the filter was last changed. The technician starts there, and if the cubes stay small with a fresh filter, the water inlet valve at $429 is next.
Can I use the ice maker during a boil water advisory?
No. Rockdale Water Resources ran one from 7:30 PM on 4 August 2026 until 7 August for the area north of I-20, and the rule during any advisory is the same: an ice maker boils nothing and its carbon filter is not a disinfection device, so switch the ice maker off, empty the bin into the sink and leave the water dispenser alone until the notice is lifted.
Afterwards, run and discard the first two or three batches. A bin that has been emptied and restarted also shows you how fast the machine really makes ice, so if it takes two days to refill, the fill valve was already weak.
My garage chest freezer struggles every summer. Is it dying?
Often the garage is the problem rather than the freezer. Standalone freezers, especially chest freezers in a garage, generate ambient complaints rather than mechanical ones, a garage at 100 °F in August, a lid not quite closing, a gasket that no longer grips, or boxes stacked against the condenser so it cannot shed heat.
The technician checks the seal and the air space around the cabinet first. When a chest freezer does fail properly it is usually the sealed system, and that is the $700 compressor line.
How long will my freezer keep food safe in a Conyers power outage?
About 48 hours if it is full and 24 hours if it is half full, provided the door stays shut, according to USDA guidance. Conyers is served by either Georgia Power or Snapping Shoals EMC depending on the address, so restoration is not always simultaneous across the city.
Do not open the door to check. Once power returns, anything still holding ice crystals can be refrozen, while meat, poultry, seafood and leftovers that sat above 40 °F for more than two hours should be discarded. If the freezer does not restart, unplug it, keep it closed and call.
