Ice Maker and Freezer Repair – 28210, 28211, 28226, 28270

What Ice Maker and Freezer Repair Costs
Every figure below is company-wide, from thousands of completed repairs, and every one is the part, the labor and the service call together – the number on your bill rather than the number on a parts website.
The company figures are built on 2,191 ice maker repairs and 2,406 freezer repairs, and they are the figures to plan against for an address in this cluster.
| Repair | Median, full ticket | Source | Jobs (n) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ice maker – frozen fill tube | $432 | Company-wide | 40 |
| Ice maker – defrost heater or timer | $419 | Company-wide | 70 |

| Ice maker – evaporator or condenser fan | $438 | Company-wide | 60 |
| Ice maker – water filter changed on the visit | $451 | Company-wide | 79 |
| Ice maker – module or assembly | $451 | Company-wide | 57 |

| Visit settled on the spot | $99 | Flat rate | Applied to the repair |
Here is why that matters more than a price. A refrigerator ice maker that stops making ice is a routine call handled on our refrigerator repair in Southpark Charlotte page, and the parts ride on the van.
A standalone or undercounter ice machine is a different animal: it has its own sealed system, its own water circuit, its own drain, and on a Scotsman or a U-Line the parts are ordered rather than carried.
The same is true of a built-in freezer drawer. So the honest guidance for this cluster is to tell us at booking which of the three you have – the ice maker inside a refrigerator, a standalone ice machine, or a freezer – plus the brand and model number if it is a built-in.
That one sentence is the difference between finishing on the first visit and coming back next week with an ordered part.
Why South Charlotte Ice Makers and Freezers Fail the Way They Do
Ice and freezer work runs above the company share here COMPANY FIGURES QUOTED
Ice makers and freezers together are 4.1 percent of the classified work in these four ZIP codes, against 3.3 percent company-wide.
The local Bozmanfix component invoices ran $294, $320, $428 and $621. The top one was a built-in unit, and prices above use the company figures, which stand on 4,360 repairs between them.
The ice maker is the expensive end of refrigeration, and it is not close $417 AGAINST $394
Across all Bozmanfix jobs, ice maker work carries the highest median of any appliance category at $417 – above refrigerators at $395, freezers at $385, washers at $373 and dishwashers at $340. The reason is that ice making combines three systems in one small box: a water circuit that can freeze or scale, a refrigeration circuit that can lose charge, and electronics that control both.
A single fault can present as no ice, and the diagnosis is what separates a $432 fill tube from a $488 board. This is the appliance where paying for a diagnosis before ordering parts saves the most money.
A freezer compressor is a real decision, and we start it at the door $700 COMPANY MEDIAN
Freezer compressor work runs a company median of $700 across 115 Bozmanfix repairs, against $846 for a refrigerator compressor.
On a built-in freezer drawer or an integrated column the numbers change, because replacement means matching a cabinet opening. We give you the number before you have spent anything beyond the diagnostic.
Tell us at booking whether it is a refrigerator ice maker, a standalone ice machine or a freezer. On built-ins, the model number gets the part on the first visit. Book online or call (252) 629-9832.
Ice Maker and Freezer Work by ZIP Code
| ZIP | Ice and freezer jobs | All appliances in this ZIP | Housing units |
|---|---|---|---|
| 28211 | 3 | 66 | 15,233 |
| 28226 | 3 | 86 | 16,752 |
| 28210 | 1 | 99 | 21,277 |
| 28270 | 1 | 64 | 12,548 |
| All four | 8 | 315 | 65,810 |
The work lines up with the built-in pattern: 28211 and 28226 carry the two highest median home values of the four at $774,900 and $617,600 per zip-codes.com, and they supply six of the eight ice and freezer jobs.
Housing unit counts come from zip-codes.com; the job counts are ours.
Where in the Cluster We See This Work
The four ZIP codes cover 50.5 square miles and 65,810 housing units of Mecklenburg County, and every one of our 315 work orders here is addressed simply to Charlotte, because the Postal Service gives none of the four an accepted alternate city name – SouthPark Mall stands at 4400 Sharon Road in 28211, Providence High School at 1800 Pineville-Matthews Road in 28270, and neither name reaches an envelope.
For an ice or freezer call, two practical notes. A freezer full of food is a scheduling priority and we treat it as one, so say so when you book. And a standalone ice machine or an undercounter unit has a water supply and a drain that a refrigerator does not, so clear access to the plumbing under or behind it saves real time on the visit.
Coverage for all six machines is on the south Charlotte appliance repair hub.
Match Your Symptom to the Likely Cause
- No ice at all, refrigerator otherwise fine – frozen fill tube at $432, water inlet valve at $429 or the ice maker module at $451. Check the freezer is actually at 0°F first: an ice maker in a compartment running warm will not cycle, and that is a refrigerator fault rather than an ice maker one.
- Ice arriving slowly, or cubes small and hollow – restricted water supply, a filter that is overdue, or the inlet valve. A filter change carried out on a service visit runs $451 across all Bozmanfix jobs, so keeping the filter on schedule protects the whole water side.
- Ice tastes wrong or smells of the freezer – the filter again, or a door seal letting air move through the compartment. Neither is expensive; both are worth fixing because they are the symptoms people live with longest.
- Standalone ice machine making no ice, or a puddle underneath – the drain, the water circuit, or the sealed system. On a Scotsman or U-Line this needs the model number at booking so the part can travel with the technician.
- Freezer not freezing but the light comes on – defrost heater or timer at $370, an evaporator fan at $396, or a sensor at $390. Mention whether a packed shelf could be holding the door fractionally open.
- Frost building on the walls or the food – a door gasket at $397 or the defrost circuit. Tell us at booking whether the gasket looks dirty or torn.
- Running constantly and still warm – condenser blocked, fan failed, or the sealed system and the compressor at $700. The technician looks at the coils first: dust imitates a failing compressor exactly.
Which Units We Are Called To Here
Four of the eight local jobs carry a brand and all four are built-in or specialty machines: Scotsman, U-Line, Thermador and KitchenAid. That is why this page reads differently from the rest of the cluster.
Brand counts reflect what is installed here, not reliability – that question is covered on most reliable appliance brands.
The ice and freezer work reaching us in these ZIP codes has been undercounter, integrated and specialty equipment rather than a chest freezer in a garage. If you have the chest freezer in the garage, we service that too and it is generally the cheaper job of the two.
If you have the built-in, the model number at booking is worth more to you than any figure on this page.
Repair or Replace, in South Charlotte Numbers
The answer splits cleanly by machine type. A chest or upright freestanding freezer costs roughly $400 to $900 to replace, and at a Bozmanfix company median of $385 with a part replaced the everyday repair usually comes in under a new unit; at $700, a compressor is the point where we lay out both numbers.
A refrigerator ice maker is not a standalone decision at all: it is one component of a machine worth several times the repair, so at $417 median the repair almost always wins. A built-in or undercounter ice machine is the clearest case of the three for repairing, because replacing means matching a cabinet opening, a water supply and a drain, and installation alone can approach the cost of the appliance.
Our framework for the decision is the repair or replace guide, with expected service life in how long freezers last.

Ice Maker and Freezer Repair in South Charlotte – Questions We Get
How much does ice maker or freezer repair cost in SouthPark and Providence?
Use Bozmanfix’s company-wide figures: $417 median for ice maker work across 2,191 repairs and $385 for freezer work across 2,406, parts and labor and the service call together.
By component, Bozmanfix company-wide: ice maker fill tube $432, defrost $419, inlet valve $429, fan $438, filter change $451, module $451, board $488; freezer defrost $370, gasket $397, sensor $390, fan $396, board $500 and compressor $700.
Why are the prices on this page company-wide?
Because built-in and specialty ice equipment varies widely, and the company figures give the steadier guide. The local Bozmanfix component jobs ran $294, $320, $428 and $621, the top one on a built-in unit.
Other pages in this cluster quote local medians – 32 jobs on refrigerators here, 20 on dishwashers, 19 on washers. The company figures behind this page rest on 4,360 completed repairs.
My refrigerator has stopped making ice. Is that this page or the refrigerator page?
Either, and it makes no difference to the price or the booking. The ice maker inside a refrigerator is the most common version of this call and it is routine work with parts that travel on the van – frozen fill tube at $432, inlet valve at $429, module at $451.
Mention on the call whether the freezer is holding 0°F, because an ice maker sitting in a compartment that is running warm will not cycle, and that is a refrigerator fault. Full detail on refrigerators is on our refrigerator page for this cluster.
Do you repair standalone and undercounter ice machines?
Yes, and in this cluster they are most of what we have seen. All four branded ice and freezer jobs in these ZIP codes were built-in or specialty units – a Scotsman, a U-Line, a Thermador and a KitchenAid. A standalone machine has its own sealed system, water circuit and drain, so it is a fuller diagnosis than a refrigerator ice maker, and the parts are ordered rather than carried.
Give us the brand and model number when you book and there is a good chance the component travels with the technician on the first visit.
What does the freezer diagnostic include?
A measured diagnosis and a firm price before any work starts. If nothing needs replacing, the diagnostic is all you pay.
Worth telling us at booking: whether a packed shelf could be holding the door open, whether the gasket is dirty, whether the thermostat was knocked, and whether the unit sits in a cold garage.
My ice tastes bad. Is that a repair?
The technician starts with the filter and the door seal. The most common causes are a water filter past its interval and a door seal letting air circulate through the compartment.
A filter changed during a service visit runs $451 across all Bozmanfix jobs, so mention the filter date on the call.
If the filter is current and the seal is clean and the taste persists, then the water line or the supply itself is worth a look.
Is a freezer compressor worth replacing?
It depends on the unit. The Bozmanfix company median for freezer compressor work is $700 across 115 repairs, against roughly $400 to $900 for a replacement unit. On a built-in freezer drawer or an integrated column repair usually wins, because replacing means matching a cabinet opening and paying for fitting.
We put the number in front of you at the door, before you have spent anything beyond the diagnostic.
How quickly can you reach a freezer call here?
Freezer calls get priority over every appliance except a refrigerator that has stopped cooling, because food loss is on the clock, so say when you book if the freezer is full. Same-day is realistic if you call early in the day. The four ZIP codes cover 50.5 square miles with no travel charge between them, so where you are affects the slot rather than the bill.
If the unit is a standalone or undercounter ice machine, clear access to its water supply and drain saves real time on the visit.
