What Ice Maker and Freezer Repair Costs, by Component
What follows is company-wide: 2,091 completed ice maker repairs and 2,269 completed freezer repairs, each line carrying the number of jobs behind it so you can weigh it for yourself. Everything is parts, labor and the service call together, never the bare price of the part.
| Repair | Median total | Source | Jobs behind it (n) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Any ice maker repair, part replaced | $415 | Company-wide | 2,091 |
| Frozen fill tube cleared | $393 | Company-wide | 40 |
| Defrost heater or timer | $415 | Company-wide | 70 |
| Water inlet valve | $428 | Company-wide | 69 |
| Evaporator or condenser fan | $432 | Company-wide | 60 |
| Water filter replaced on the visit | $440 | Company-wide | 79 |
| Ice maker module | $449 | Company-wide | 57 |
| Control board | $488 | Company-wide | 32 |
| Any freezer repair, part replaced | $385 | Company-wide | 2,269 |
| Freezer defrost heater or timer | $364 | Company-wide | 203 |
| Freezer door gasket | $389 | Company-wide | 77 |
| Freezer thermostat or sensor | $390 | Company-wide | 81 |
| Freezer evaporator or condenser fan | $396 | Company-wide | 135 |
| Freezer control board | $494 | Company-wide | 51 |
| Freezer compressor replacement | $700 | Company-wide | 107 |
| Diagnostic visit only | $99 | Flat rate | — |
Notice the shape of those two blocks. The ice maker column runs high and narrow, $393 to $488 across seven different failures, while freezers run lower and then jump: everything that is not the compressor sits between $364 and $494, and the compressor is $700, roughly double.
That is the same pattern as a refrigerator and for the same reason — sealed-system work means recovery, brazing, evacuation and recharge, and hours on site, while everything else is the service call plus an hour or two of labour.
So on a freezer the real question is not which part, it is whether this is the sealed system or everything else. Full component pricing for 59 components is in appliance repair cost by component.
Why Mandarin Ice Makers and Freezers Fail the Way They Do
This category is 7 of the 162 Mandarin jobs where our paperwork names an appliance, 4.3 percent, slightly above our company-wide 3.3 percent.
Most Mandarin ice makers live inside the refrigerator INSIDE THE FRIDGE
Mandarin is our most refrigerator-heavy territory in Jacksonville at 42 percent of identified work, and yet ice makers and freezers are only 4.3 percent of it. The two facts are less contradictory than they look: most ice makers in this neighbourhood live inside a refrigerator, and when the whole appliance is misbehaving the job gets logged as a refrigerator rather than as an ice maker.
Frost and defrost failures in particular present as both problems at once. If your ice maker sits inside a fridge that is also not cooling properly, the Mandarin refrigerator page is the more useful one and it carries real local figures.
Most no-ice calls come down to four settings WORTH MENTIONING
On this pair of machines the most common causes of no ice are a shut-off arm knocked up, a supply valve partly closed, a water filter long overdue, a freezer running too warm to trigger the harvest cycle, or a door left ajar overnight.
All of them look identical to a failed ice maker from outside, so tell us at booking what you have already seen.
Water on the freezer floor is usually the fill tube, not a leak 515 JOBS
Jobs logged as an ice maker leaking number 515 company-wide at a $380 median, and the dominant mechanism is a fill tube that has partly frozen. Water backs up behind the ice plug, overflows the mould and runs down into the freezer where it builds into a slab under the bin.
People describe it as a leak and expect a plumbing repair, but usually the fill tube is the cause. The tube froze because the freezer runs slightly too cold, the water pressure is low, or the inlet valve is not sealing fully and drips after each fill.
Clearing the tube is a $393 median; the valve behind it, if that is the cause, is $428.
Frost sheeting the walls is the defrost system, our most common freezer repair 203 JOBS
The defrost heater or timer is the single most replaced freezer component we have, 203 jobs at a $364 median, and it is also the cheapest of the substantial freezer repairs. The symptom starts as frost on the back wall and progresses to reduced airflow, then on a combined unit to a fresh-food compartment drifting warm.
Left long enough it presents as a refrigerator that is not cooling, which is why those two problems are frequently the same problem — and, on this page, why so much of what might have been ice maker work is counted next door. Background is in freezer frost build-up and ice maker not making ice.
When you book, tell us whether the shut-off arm is down, whether the supply valve is fully open, when the water filter was last changed, and what the freezer reads. That tells the technician whether to start with a setting, a filter or a valve. Book online or call (954) 902-6229.

Match Your Symptom to the Likely Cause
- No ice at all, mould stays dry — water is not arriving. Shut-off arm knocked up, supply valve closed, a saddle valve silted, or the inlet valve at $428. Company median on no-ice jobs is $420 across 348 of them. The arm is the first thing the technician checks.
- Small, hollow or misshapen cubes — low water pressure, a partly frozen fill tube at $393, or a filter long overdue. See when to change the water filter.
- Ice tastes or smells wrong — almost always the filter, or old ice absorbing freezer odours, rather than a mechanical fault. The technician changes the filter on the visit, and the first two batches after it are discarded.
- Water pooling under the ice bin or running down the back wall — frozen fill tube overflowing, or an inlet valve dripping after the fill. 515 company jobs at $380, usually from the fill tube.
- Mould fills but never ejects — ice maker module at $449, or a freezer running too warm to reach harvest temperature. The second one gets checked first.
- Freezer not holding temperature — defrost heater or timer at $364, evaporator fan at $396, thermostat or sensor at $390. 488 company jobs at $377. Frost on the back wall points at the defrost system.
- Freezer running constantly and still warm — this is the one that can be the compressor at $700, or a condenser fan or a coil packed with dust, which are far cheaper. Only a diagnostic separates them.
Which Brands We See on Mandarin Freezers and Ice Makers
Branded Mandarin jobs in this category include Frigidaire twice, and one each of Whirlpool and Amana.
Across the whole Mandarin cluster our 136 brand-tagged jobs of every type run Whirlpool 33.8 percent, Samsung 24.3 percent, GE 21.3 percent and Frigidaire 9.6 percent, so those are the platforms most likely to be behind your freezer door here — and Whirlpool at a third is the highest brand share we record anywhere in Jacksonville.
The practical consequence is the same as elsewhere: Whirlpool, GE, Frigidaire and Amana ice maker modules, inlet valves and defrost components ride on the van, while Samsung and LG assemblies are the ones most likely to need ordering and a second visit. As everywhere, this counts how often we are called out to a brand, not how reliable it is. See most reliable appliance brands.
Repair or Replace, in Real Numbers
Treat this as two separate decisions rather than one. An ice maker inside a working refrigerator is essentially never a replace decision on its own: the repair runs a $415 median, and replacing a refrigerator to fix an ice maker makes no sense, so the repair is the sensible route.
A standalone freezer is a genuine call: a mid-market chest or upright is roughly $500 to $1,100, against a $385 median repair, so most freezer repairs are clear value, and the most common failure at $364 is at the cheap end.
The exception is the compressor at $700, which on an older unit is most of the way to a new one; across our whole book on a compressor we put the repair total next to the price of a comparable new unit and let the arithmetic decide.
The same logic applies to any freezer whose sealed system has failed. Figures in the appliance repair approval rate and the framework in the repair or replace guide.

Ice Maker and Freezer Repair in Mandarin — Questions We Get
How much does ice maker repair cost in Mandarin, Jacksonville?
Bozmanfix’s company-wide figures apply here: a $415 median on 2,091 completed ice maker repairs and $385 on 2,269 freezer repairs, parts and labor and the service call together.
By component: clearing a frozen fill tube $393, a defrost heater or timer $415, a water inlet valve $428, a fan $432, a filter replaced on the visit $440, an ice maker module $449 and a control board $488. A diagnostic where nothing is replaced is $99.
Why does the refrigerator page carry more local ice maker work?
Because most ice makers in Mandarin live inside a refrigerator, and when the whole appliance is misbehaving the job gets logged as a refrigerator rather than as an ice maker. Frost and defrost failures in particular present as both problems at once. That is why most local ice work appears among the 68 refrigerator jobs.
If your ice maker sits inside a fridge that is also not cooling properly, the Mandarin refrigerator page is the more useful one and it carries real local figures.
What is worth telling you when I book an ice maker visit?
Four things help the technician start in the right place. Whether the shut-off arm or switch inside the freezer could have been knocked into the off position. Whether the water supply valve behind or under the appliance is fully open. When the water filter was last changed, since a clogged filter starves the ice maker before it noticeably affects drinking water.
And what the freezer reads, because an ice maker will not run a harvest cycle if the compartment is too warm.
There is water freezing into a slab under my ice bin. Is something leaking?
Usually it is a frozen fill tube rather than a plumbing leak. The most common cause is a fill tube that has partly frozen, so each fill backs up behind the ice plug, overflows the mould and runs down into the freezer. Jobs logged as an ice maker leaking number 515 company-wide at a $380 median, and clearing the fill tube is a $393 median on its own.
What made it freeze matters too: a freezer running colder than it needs to, low water pressure, or an inlet valve at $428 that is not sealing fully and drips after each fill.
What usually goes wrong with a freezer?
Most freezer calls come down to airflow and temperature: a door seal that no longer closes cleanly, frost blocking the evaporator, an overloaded compartment, or a setting that drifted. The technician checks those first, then gives you a firm total before any work starts. The $99 diagnostic comes off the repair when a part is needed, and every completed repair carries a 90-day parts and labor warranty.
My freezer runs constantly and is still not cold. What is that likely to cost?
This is the one freezer symptom that genuinely splits. On the cheaper side it is a condenser coil packed with dust, a condenser or evaporator fan at $396, or a defrost failure at $364 that has iced the evaporator over. On the expensive side it is the compressor at a $700 median across 107 jobs.
Both look identical from outside, which is why this one is priced after the diagnosis. Everything on a freezer that is not the compressor sits between $364 and $494.
Do you repair standalone freezers as well as refrigerator ice makers?
Yes to both, and the repair-or-replace maths is different for each. An ice maker inside a working refrigerator is essentially never a reason to replace the refrigerator, so the $415 median repair is the sensible route.
A standalone freezer at roughly $500 to $1,100 to replace is a real decision, particularly when the diagnosis is a compressor at $700. Freezer calls get scheduling priority alongside refrigerators because food loss is on the clock.
