What Ice Maker and Freezer Repair Costs, by Component
What follows is company-wide data: 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 Northside Ice Makers and Freezers Fail the Way They Do
Here is the company-wide picture in full, with what matters on the Northside.
Why ice calls get postponed BAGGED ICE
Company-wide, ice makers and freezers are 3,266 jobs of ours, and a broken ice maker is the one appliance failure people live around longest.
You buy bags. The freezer keeps freezing. Nothing spoils and nothing floods, so the call gets postponed for months or never made at all. Worth knowing if you have been putting it off: the most common causes are also among the cheapest, and clearing a frozen fill tube at $393 is a long way from a control board at $488.
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 why on the Northside much of that work arrives under the refrigerator heading, where we have 62 jobs.
The Northside refrigerator page carries real local figures. 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, the supply valve is fully open, the water filter is not overdue, and the freezer is at 0°F. That helps the technician arrive with the right parts, so book online or call (954) 902-6229.

Around the Northside
The metro-level page is ice maker repair in Jacksonville FL, with the full territory on appliance repair in Jacksonville. Neighbouring clusters with their own ice maker pages are the Westside, St. Johns and Fruit Cove, Fernandina Beach, Jacksonville Beach and Ponte Vedra Beach.
Because most ice makers here live inside a refrigerator, the Northside refrigerator page is often the more useful one, and background reading is in ice maker not making ice and when to change the water filter.
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. Tell us at booking whether the arm is down.
- 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 — usually the filter, or old ice absorbing freezer odours. Tell us at booking when the filter was last changed.
- 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 Northside Freezers and Ice Makers
Across the whole cluster our 120 brand-tagged jobs of every type run Whirlpool 27.5 percent, Samsung 22.5 percent, Frigidaire 14.2 percent, GE 13.3 percent, LG 8.3 percent and Maytag 6.7 percent, so those are the platforms most likely to be behind your freezer door here.
The practical consequence is the same as elsewhere: Whirlpool, GE, Frigidaire and Maytag 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. Samsung at 22.5 percent is higher on the Northside than in any other Jacksonville cluster we measure, which makes an ordered part somewhat more likely here than elsewhere.
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.
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 a standalone freezer where the sealed system has failed. Figures in the appliance repair approval rate and the framework in the repair or replace guide.

What Jacksonville Customers Say About Bozmanfix
“Dimitri did a great job replacing the LG lower ice maker, water fill valve and cleaned the compressor coil.”
“Showed up on time and fixed my washing machine in 45 minutes.”
“Our LG refrigerator had an icemaker and water valve issue that Dmitri diagnosed quickly. He ordered the parts and was back a couple of days later to fix the problem and did an excellent job.”
“Our water filter had been broken for more than 6 months and we are grateful that it is working again. He came Tuesday to look at the problem, diagnosed it, ordered the parts, and came Friday to finish the job.”
Ice Maker and Freezer Repair on the Northside — Questions We Get
How much does ice maker repair cost on the Northside of 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.
Where do the prices on this page come from?
From the company-wide record, because most Northside ice work is booked under the refrigerator.
Every figure on this page comes from our company-wide book of 2,091 ice maker and 2,269 freezer repairs, each line showing how many jobs sit behind it. The other five Northside appliance pages carry local figures.
What should I tell you when I book an ice maker visit?
Four things, and they take a minute. Whether the shut-off arm or switch inside the freezer has 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 whether the freezer is actually at 0°F, because an ice maker will not run a harvest cycle if the compartment is too warm. Those answers help the technician arrive with the right parts.
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.
Should I book this page or the refrigerator page?
If the ice maker sits inside your refrigerator and the fridge itself is also misbehaving, the Northside refrigerator page is the more useful one, and it carries real local figures from 62 jobs. Frost and defrost problems in particular often present as both an ice problem and a cooling problem, because they are the same failure.
Either way it is the same technician, the same $99 diagnostic and the same 90-day warranty, so booking through either page reaches the same place.
Which Northside ZIP codes do you cover for freezer and ice maker repair?
All three: 32218, 32219 and 32226, at the same price with no travel surcharge between them. 32219 also carries Dinsmore as an accepted USPS name.
The service, the price and the priority we give freezer calls are the same in all three, and freezer calls sit alongside refrigerators at the top of our scheduling because food loss is on the clock.
