Slow drip behind the refrigerator
We trace the drip to the fitting or line, replace the failed section, and pressure-test it. Most slow-drip calls are a loose compression nut or a cracked saddle valve, and both are same-day fixes.
Ice Maker Water Line Repair Hattiesburg MS is what we do every day: we trace the leak, replace the failed water line or inlet valve, and pressure-test the run before we leave. If your ice maker water line fix in Hattiesburg MS has been put off because of a slow drip behind the fridge, we handle it in one visit. We work on Whirlpool, GE, Samsung, LG and Scotsman units across Forrest County, and we carry the common fittings on the truck.

Ice Maker Water Line Repair Hattiesburg MS is the repair of the small-diameter supply line, saddle valve, or water inlet valve that feeds your ice maker. The line runs from a household supply pipe to the back of the unit, usually through a saddle valve or shutoff, and it fails in predictable ways: pinhole pinholes in copper, cracked poly tubing, mineral-clogged valves, or a loose compression nut that drips a cup of water a day onto your floor. We cut out the bad section, install a new line, and confirm flow at the fill cup before we close up.
In Hattiesburg, the call usually comes after a slow leak has already warped a cabinet base or stained a wood floor. Older homes in the Historic Neighborhood and The Avenues often still have original copper runs, and our hard water leaves scale inside the inlet valve until it sticks open. That is when you see ice maker water line leaking Hattiesburg Mississippi symptoms: a puddle under the fridge, low ice production, or a water filter that clogs every few weeks. We fix the line and the valve together so you are not calling us back in a month.
Every ice maker water line repair job covers the full water path from the supply shutoff to the fill cup. If we find a related failure while we are in there, we quote it before we touch it, so you never get a surprise line item after the fact.
We pressurize the run and inspect the saddle valve, compression fittings, line and inlet valve with a mirror and leak detection dye. You get the exact failure point, not a guess.
Damaged copper or poly gets cut out and replaced with new 1/4-inch line and fresh compression fittings. We match the material to your setup so the repair lasts.
We test the water inlet valve for scale and sticking, and replace it when needed. A valve that hangs open is the number one cause of repeat line leaks.
Three fill cycles and a 15-minute pressure watch before we leave. If the line weeps, we catch it on site and redo the connection at no extra charge.
We show you where the saddle valve or shutoff is and how to close it, so a future leak is a five-second fix instead of a flooded floor.
Cabinet floor dried, unit pushed back and leveled, old parts left with you. We treat your kitchen like it is ours.
You call 111 222 333 and describe what you see: puddle, low ice, or no fill at all. We ask the unit brand and where the line enters the wall, then book a same-day window. The call takes about five minutes and costs nothing.
The technician pulls the unit out, inspects the supply line with a mirror, and pressurizes the run to find the failure. We check the saddle valve, compression fittings, and the water inlet valve. This step runs 20 to 30 minutes.
You get one flat price covering the line, fittings, and labor before any work starts. If the inlet valve or filter also needs replacing, it is added to the same quote. No hourly surprises, no trip charge added at the end.
We cut out the damaged section, install new line, and set the valve. Then we run three fill cycles and watch the line under pressure for 15 minutes. If it drips, we redo it on the spot. Most repairs take 90 minutes to two hours.
We dry the cabinet floor, push the unit back, and make ice with you watching. You get the old parts, a 12-month workmanship warranty, and a quick lesson on the shutoff valve location so you can kill the water fast next time.
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Lets us see behind the fridge and confirm the exact leak point without pulling cabinets apart.
Clean cuts and correct flares on copper line so the new connection seals the first time.
Removes and reseats inlet valve and line fittings without stripping the hardware on Whirlpool, GE and Samsung units.
Used when a line repair reveals a sealed-system fault, so we can diagnose refrigerant-side problems on the same visit.
EPA Section 608 compliant recovery when compressor or sealed-system work is needed alongside the line repair.
Verifies fill-cup temperature and tests the inlet valve circuit and control board signals.
A Samsung French-door fridge dripped about a cup of water a day onto a wood floor. The poly line had hardened and split at the saddle valve, and the cabinet base was starting to stain.
We replaced the line with braided stainless, installed a new shutoff valve, and pressure-tested the run for 15 minutes. The floor dried out, the stain stopped spreading, and the unit has filled on schedule for months.
A 1960s home had original copper line feeding a KitchenAid ice maker. A pinhole leak had soaked the cabinet floor and the ice had started tasting metallic.
We cut out the pitted copper, ran new line with fresh compression fittings, and replaced the scaled inlet valve. Fill pressure came back to spec and the metallic taste disappeared within two batches of ice.
A Manitowoc ice machine stopped filling mid-Friday service. The inlet valve was scaled shut and the supply line was restricted, so the bin was empty by 6 p.m.
We replaced the valve and line from truck stock, ran three fill cycles, and had the machine producing ice before dinner service. No weekend shutdown and no emergency parts order.
Most ice maker water line failures look different on the surface but trace back to a handful of causes. Here is what we run into across Hattiesburg.
Ask a pro →We trace the drip to the fitting or line, replace the failed section, and pressure-test it. Most slow-drip calls are a loose compression nut or a cracked saddle valve, and both are same-day fixes.
We test the line, valve and filter in order, because a clogged filter or scaled valve is the cheapest cause. If the line is restricted, we replace it and restore fill pressure.
We replace the water inlet valve and flush the line. Hattiesburg water is hard enough that valves here often fail in two to three years, so we check it on every line job.
We thaw, inspect and replace the line with freeze-resistant braided stainless, then test the run. If the line runs through a garage or exterior wall, we insulate it while we are there.
Most repairs run $180 to $450 in 2026, including parts and labor. A simple compression fitting swap sits at the low end; a full copper line replacement through a cabinet wall or a job that also needs a new water inlet valve lands at the high end. You get the exact price on site before we start, and there is no trip charge on scheduled work.
We do, across Forrest County and every Hattiesburg ZIP code, including 39401, 39402 and 39406. Our technicians carry a state appliance repair license and manufacturer service certification on the major refrigerator brands.

Yes. Same-day ice maker water line fix Hattiesburg MS appointments are standard when you call before mid-afternoon. We keep line, fittings and inlet valves on the truck, so the repair usually finishes in one visit. If the leak is flooding a floor right now, shut the saddle valve and tell us it is an emergency when you call.
Three causes cover most of what we see: hard water scale cracking a copper line or jamming the inlet valve open, a loose or worn compression fitting at the saddle valve, and poly tubing that has hardened and split behind the fridge. We pressure-test the run, find which one it is, and replace the failed part rather than patching it.
