Freezer Ice Maker Repair Cost
An ice maker is the freezer module that fills a mould with water, freezes it and drops the cubes into a bin. When the module, its fill valve or the supply line fails, the work sits in the $280–$820 band. Sub-Zero Repair Kirkland, (425) 699-2400, open 8 am to 8 pm.

Service call The $89 visit covers coming out and diagnosing the fault in full, and all $89 comes back to you as a credit on any repair you go ahead with.
One band for the whole water path
The configured band takes in all three places an ice fault can live: the ice maker module itself, the valve that lets water in on each fill, and the line that carries it from the house supply. Which of them failed sets the figure inside the range. This is the only price page on this site for ice work; the visit for ice maker repair begins with the same $89 diagnosis, credited to the repair.
Ice where it should not be
Sub-Zero lists a jammed cube, a valve that is not working properly, a wrong fill setting and low water pressure as the causes of ice blocks or water around the ice maker. Low pressure can freeze the fill tube or let the cup overflow. That ice sits in and around the ice maker, which is how it differs from a frost sheet across the rear wall: the second is air or defrost trouble, priced on the page for frost buildup repair costs.
If ice or water keeps collecting after you have seated the bin and cleared any jammed cubes, turn the supply valve off until the visit.
Drawer units
On Designer freezer drawers with an ice maker, the Designer integrated guide asks owners to switch the ice maker off whenever the ice container is lifted out; a three-minute delay stops cubes dropping in the meantime. Rule that out before booking.
Check these before you call
- 01
Check on the control panel that the ice maker is switched on. It is easy to leave off after a trip away.
- 02
Confirm the freezer holds 5°F or colder. Sub-Zero says ice production needs it, and a warmer freezer is a different fault.
- 03
Seat the bin level and fully home, and make sure the water supply valve to the unit is open. Then allow a full day for new ice.

Thermoelectric unit in a nineties remodel that nobody else would look at. He found the cooling module tired but the cabinet sound, gave us the honest choice, and rebuilt what could be saved. Holding 55°F three weeks on.

Two columns side by side and only the left one misbehaved — warm top shelves, fine at the bottom. Airflow at the evaporator showed the air tower baffle jammed shut. Cleared it, swapped a tired fan.

Bin filling with one fused block instead of cubes. He said that usually points at overflow rather than the maker, and the water valve was indeed seeping past. New valve, bin stripped and cleaned, advice on travel.
