Undercounter Ice Maker Repair in Hattiesburg is what we do every day, from The Avenues to Oak Grove. Whether your built-in ice maker repair Hattiesburg MS job is a leaking water inlet valve, a jammed auger, or a control board that quit, we diagnose it fast and fix it right the first time. Most calls get same-day service.
Undercounter Ice Maker Repair in Hattiesburg is the diagnostic and mechanical work that restores a built-in ice machine to full production: pulling the unit, testing the water inlet valve, checking the thermostat and control board, and confirming the compressor and condenser coils are doing their job. We work on Whirlpool, KitchenAid, GE, Samsung, LG, Frigidaire, Scotsman, Manitowoc, Hoshizaki, Ice-O-Matic, U-Line, and Sub-Zero units. If your machine is not making ice, leaking water, or dispensing warm ice, that is a repair, not a replacement.
Hattiesburg summers push undercounter ice makers hard, and the humidity along the Hardy Street Corridor does not help. We see ice maker mold and slime buildup, water line leaks behind cabinets, and ice maker compressor failure on units that have run nonstop since spring. If you have been searching for undercounter ice maker repair in Hattiesburg MS near me, we cover Forrest County and the surrounding ZIP codes with same-day and emergency service. Call 111 222 333 and we will get you on the schedule.
Every undercounter ice maker repair call includes a full diagnostic, a flat quote before work starts, and a test run before we leave. Parts are quoted separately when they are needed. Here is what you get as standard on the job.
We test the water inlet valve, thermostat, control board, and auger with a multimeter, then check refrigerant pressure with a manifold gauge set. You get the actual fault, not a guess, and the diagnostic is built into the repair price.
If water is pooling under the cabinet, we use leak detection dye and an inspection mirror to find the source, whether it is the water line, inlet valve, or drain. We repair it and dry-test the cabinet before we leave.
Compressor and sealed-system work is done under EPA Section 608 rules with a recovery machine and vacuum pump. We recover, evacuate, and recharge to spec so the machine freezes correctly instead of cycling short.
We remove mold and slime buildup from the bin, mold, and water lines as part of the repair, because a fixed machine with a dirty bin still makes bad ice. Sanitizing is included, not an upsell.
Before we pack up, we run two full harvest cycles and check cube size, clarity, and thickness against AHAM standards. You watch the machine drop ice, so there is no doubt the repair worked.
Every repair we complete is warrantied on both the part and the labor. If the same fault returns inside the warranty window, we come back and make it right at no charge. We log the repair and filter date on the unit.
We ask what the machine is doing: no ice, small or hollow ice, leaking, warm ice, or an error code. Those answers tell us which parts to load on the truck. The call takes about five minutes and costs nothing.
We pull the unit, check the water inlet valve, thermostat, control board, and auger, then test the compressor and condenser coils. A multimeter confirms electrical faults and a manifold gauge set reads refrigerant pressure. This takes 20 to 40 minutes.
You get one number covering labor and the parts we found. No hourly surprises, no upsell on a machine that only needs a $40 valve. If the repair does not make sense against replacement cost, we tell you that too.
We replace the failed component, clear any auger jam, sanitize the ice bin, and recharge refrigerant if the sealed system was opened. Most repairs run 45 to 90 minutes. We protect your floor and cabinet while we work.
We run two full harvest cycles, check ice thickness and cube clarity, and confirm no leaks at the water line. You watch the machine drop ice before we leave, and we note the filter change date on the unit.
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Tests the water inlet valve, thermostat, control board, and auger motor for continuity and correct voltage so we replace the failed part, not a working one.
Reads high and low side refrigerant pressure to confirm whether a warm-ice complaint is a charge issue, a compressor problem, or a thermostat fault.
Used together on sealed-system repairs to recover refrigerant, pull a deep vacuum, and recharge to spec under EPA Section 608 rules.
Cuts and forms copper line cleanly when we replace a failed water line or repair a refrigerant circuit, so the joint seals right the first time.
Gets panels off without stripping screws and lets us see behind the cabinet where water line leaks and drain clogs hide on built-in units.
Dye confirms slow water leaks that leave no puddle, and a thermometer verifies bin and evaporator temperatures against the machine's spec.
A homeowner in Oak Grove had a panel-ready U-Line that stopped making ice entirely. The machine ran but the bin stayed empty. A previous attempt replaced the control board with no result, and the cabinet was starting to smell musty.
We tested the water inlet valve with a multimeter and found it stuck closed. A new OEM valve and a filter swap restored production. Two harvest cycles later the bin was filling, and cube size measured within spec.
A bar on the Hardy Street Corridor had water pooling under its built-in machine during Friday service. The cabinet floor was soaked and the staff was mopping between orders. The machine was still making ice, so the leak was easy to ignore.
We came out after close, traced the leak to a cracked water line behind the cabinet with leak detection dye, and replaced the line and inlet valve. A dry test confirmed no drips, and the machine was back in service before Saturday open.
A homeowner in The Avenues was getting small, hollow cubes and assumed the machine was finished. The unit was 9 years old and had never been descaled. Ice was cloudy and melted fast in the bin.
We found a scaled ice mold and a thermostat that had drifted out of spec. We descaled the mold, replaced the thermostat, and verified cube size over two cycles. The cubes came back full size and clear.
Most undercounter machines fail in one of a handful of ways, and each one points to a specific part. Here are the problems we see most often on Hattiesburg calls and how we solve them.
Ask a pro →We walk the chain from the saddle valve to the control board, testing the water inlet valve and thermostat with a multimeter. Most no-ice calls trace to a stuck valve or a failed control board, and both are same-day repairs with parts we stock.
We trace the leak with inspection mirror and leak detection dye, checking the water line, inlet valve, and drain path. Then we replace the failed part and pressure-test the line. You get a dry cabinet and a written note on what failed.
We check refrigerant pressure with a manifold gauge set and test the thermostat against spec. If the sealed system is low, we recover, evacuate, and recharge under EPA Section 608 rules. If the thermostat drifted, we replace it and verify cube size over two cycles.
We pull the bin, scrub the mold, sanitize the water lines, and flush the system. Then we check the water filter and replace it if it is past due. Most Hattiesburg undercounter units need this once a year.
Most undercounter ice maker repairs in Hattiesburg run $180 to $450 in 2026, including the service call and the part. A water inlet valve or thermostat swap sits at the low end. Compressor or control board work pushes toward the top. Sealed-system jobs that need refrigerant recovery cost more because of the equipment and EPA handling rules.

Yes, and most units that quit are repairable. The usual culprits are a failed water inlet valve, a bad thermostat, a control board failure, or an auger jam. We test each with a multimeter before replacing anything. If the compressor is gone and the machine is 12-plus years old, we will tell you straight whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
We do, and same-day slots usually fill by mid-morning. Call before noon and there is a good chance we are at your door the same afternoon. Emergency calls for bars, restaurants, and clinics get priority, including nights and weekends. We carry common parts so most same-day visits finish in one trip.
Ice Maker RepairGeneral ice maker repair covers freestanding and undercounter machines alike. If your unit is built in, we start with the same diagnostics and then account for cabinet airflow and clearance, which is where most undercounter failures begin.Explore →
Commercial Ice Maker RepairBars and restaurants on Hardy Street run high-volume machines that fail under load. We handle commercial ice maker repair with the same parts stock and sealed-system credentials we bring to undercounter work, including emergency and after-hours calls.Explore →
Residential Ice Maker RepairHomeowners in Oak Grove and The Avenues usually have one built-in unit doing all the work. Residential ice maker repair focuses on water quality, filter life, and the valve and thermostat failures that hit undercounter machines hardest in Hattiesburg humidity.Explore →
Refrigerator Ice Maker RepairMany Hattiesburg kitchens run a fridge ice maker alongside an undercounter unit. The parts overlap: water inlet valve, mold, thermostat, and control board. If both are acting up, we can diagnose them on the same visit and save you a second trip charge.Explore →
Freezer Ice Maker RepairFreezer-mounted ice makers share the compressor and condenser coil layout with undercounter units. When a freezer ice maker stops producing, the diagnosis path is nearly identical, and we carry the same thermostats and valves for both.Explore →
