What the listings say about ice maker repair in South Carolina

Counted from the 4 profiles above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.

South Carolina holds 4 listed ice maker repair businesses, out of 147 nationwide. That ranks 17th of the 45 states with any, level with Pennsylvania and behind Texas on 11. They are 4 of the 15 businesses listed in South Carolina — 27% of the state directory.

Their ratings average 4.7, against 4.6 across all 147 listed nationwide, and 4 of the 4 sit at 4.5 or better. None holds a straight 5.0, and none sits below 4.0. Between them they carry 570 reviews, the largest single tally being 250 on Jacksons Appliance Service and Repair in Greenville. Rating and review volume are what the businesses' own public profiles report — treat a high average on six reviews differently from the same average on six hundred.

By review volume the group is led by Jacksons Appliance Service and Repair in Greenville (250 reviews, 4.6), Charleston Appliance Repair LLC in Charleston (198 reviews, 4.7) and Sloan Appliance Service in Cayce (77 reviews, 4.5). By rating it is Elemental Appliance Repair at 4.8 on 45 reviews, Charleston Appliance Repair LLC at 4.7 on 198 reviews and Jacksons Appliance Service and Repair at 4.6 on 250 reviews. Those are two different questions and they rarely give the same answer — volume tells you a company has been doing this at scale, a high average on a handful of reviews tells you much less.

All 4 state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. On top of that, 2 show a Better Business Bureau accreditation, 1 states a factory-authorised or factory-trained credential and 1 publishes a parts-and-labor warranty term in the profiles. 1 of the 4 advertises 24/7 emergency callout. All of that is self-stated in the listing, not verified here: ask for the license number and a current certificate of insurance, and for anything that opens a sealed refrigerant system ask to see federal EPA Section 608 certification, which is required in all fifty states.

3 of the 4 publish a founding year: the longest-established has been trading since 1958, and the median across those that say is 22 years. Charleston holds the most at 2 — 50% of the group — followed by Columbia on 1, across 3 South Carolina cities with an index page. Between them they name 21 distinct towns, suburbs and neighborhoods in their stated service areas, so coverage reaches well past the cities listed here — give your address when you call rather than assuming.

What South Carolina technicians find most often

The 5 most common ice maker faults, and whether each is homeowner work or a job for a licensed technician.

All 8 faults →

  • No ice at all, mould is dry

    Technician

    No water arriving: a closed shut-off, a kinked supply line, a frozen fill tube, or a failed water inlet valve.

    Step-by-step: Ice Maker Not Making Ice→

  • Cubes are small, hollow, or only partly formed

    Homeowner fix

    Low water pressure, a clogged filter overdue for replacement, or a partially blocked fill tube.

    Step-by-step: Ice Maker Slow or Making Small Cubes→

  • Ice smells or tastes stale

    Homeowner fix

    An overdue water filter, or ice that has sat long enough to absorb freezer odours. Ice is porous and picks up everything around it.

  • Mould fills with water but never ejects

    Technician

    The icemaker module, the mould thermostat, or the ejector motor. On most units the module is replaced as one assembly.

    Step-by-step: Ice Maker Not Making Ice→

  • Ice cubes fused into one solid block in the bin

    Technician

    Slow usage plus a freezer running slightly warm, or a leaking fill valve dribbling water into the bin between cycles.

Keep the next call from happening

Ask the technician to walk you through these while they are on site — every one of them prevents a fault in the list above.

  • Replace the water filter on schedule

    Every 6 months

    Prevents: Small hollow cubes, slow fills, and a strained inlet valve.

  • Empty the bin fully and let it refill

    Monthly

    Prevents: Fused blocks of ice and stale-tasting cubes.

  • Check the supply line for kinks behind the fridge

    After any move

    Prevents: The most common no-ice call after a kitchen reshuffle.

What ice maker repair costs in South Carolina

National ranges for parts and labor together, before the $50–$100 diagnostic. Labor tracks local wages and drive time, so metro South Carolina sits toward the top of each range and rural calls toward the bottom, while the part costs about the same anywhere. Nothing here is a quote.

Full cost breakdown →
Typical ice maker repair jobs with national cost ranges.
RepairParts + labor
Thaw a frozen fill tube and clear the supplyOften the entire fix on a no-ice call.$80–$160
Water filter replacement and pressure checkCheapest cause of small or hollow cubes.$60–$140
Water inlet valveThe single most common ice-maker part failure.$150–$300
Icemaker module or ejector assemblyUsually supplied and replaced as one unit.$200–$400
Mould thermostat or bin-level sensorSymptom is a machine that fills but never harvests.$150–$300
Complete in-fridge icemaker assemblyOften cheaper than chasing individual parts on an older unit.$250–$450

5–10 years for an icemaker inside a refrigerator — noticeably shorter than the fridge around it. Standalone and undercounter machines reach 10–15 with proper descaling. When replacing beats repairing covers the 4 cases where the maths turns, in full.

Ice Maker repair in South Carolina — common questions

How many ice maker repair pros are listed in South Carolina?
4 businesses listed in South Carolina name ice maker repair among the work they do — 27% of the 15 businesses this directory holds for the state, 17th of the 45 states with any, out of 147 listed nationwide — 3% of them. Charleston accounts for 2 of them. The directory is a sample of the market, not a register of every company trading in South Carolina.
Which ice maker repair companies are rated highest in South Carolina?
Elemental Appliance Repair in Charleston at 4.8 on 45 reviews, Charleston Appliance Repair LLC in Charleston at 4.7 on 198 reviews, Jacksons Appliance Service and Repair in Greenville at 4.6 on 250 reviews — that is the order the list on this page uses. The most-reviewed is different: Jacksons Appliance Service and Repair in Greenville, with 250 reviews at 4.6. Read both — a 5.0 on nine reviews and a 4.6 on four hundred are not the same claim.
How much does ice maker repair cost in South Carolina?
Expect $150–$400 for a common ice maker repair, parts and labor together, on top of a $50–$100 diagnostic fee that most companies credit against the work if you go ahead. Those are national bands, not South Carolina quotes: labor rates track local wages and drive time, so a dense metro sits at the top of each range and a rural call at the bottom, while the part itself costs about the same anywhere. Get written estimates from two or three of the 4 listed here before authorizing anything.
Which South Carolina city has the most ice maker repair companies?
Charleston, with 2 of the 4 — 50% of the group — followed by Columbia on 1. 3 South Carolina cities in total have at least one.
Are ice maker repair technicians licensed in South Carolina?
All 4 listed here state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. 2 also show a Better Business Bureau accreditation. Licensing for appliance repair is set state by state and sometimes by city or county, so the reliable check is the paperwork: ask which license the company works under, get the number, and confirm it with the issuing authority. Two requirements are national rather than local — sealed refrigerant work needs federal EPA Section 608 certification, and gas work needs a technician qualified for gas appliances.
Can I get same-day or emergency ice maker repair in South Carolina?
1 of the 4 listed here advertises 24/7 emergency availability and carries a badge in the ranked list above. Many of the others take same-day work for common faults without advertising it, so it is worth asking — especially early in the day, before the route is full.
Which ice maker brands do South Carolina repair pros service?
The ice maker pros listed in South Carolina name 17 distinct brands between them. The most widely covered are Bosch (4), GE (4), KitchenAid (4), LG (4), Maytag (4), Samsung (4). In-fridge icemakers are largely model-specific assemblies, so the technician needs your refrigerator's model number, not the icemaker's. Undercounter machines from Sub-Zero, U-Line, Marvel and Scotsman need a technician who explicitly services that category.
How long have South Carolina ice maker repair companies been in business?
3 of the 4 publish one. The longest-established has been trading since 1958, and the median across those that say is 22 years. 1 publishes a parts-and-labor warranty term in the listing. Use it as one signal among several: what matters more is whether the technician has opened your platform before, and whether the warranty term is written on the invoice.
Should I repair or replace my ice maker?
Apply the 50% rule. A new ice maker averages $400 in the US and lasts about 8 years, so a repair quote over roughly $200 on a unit past 5 years old is usually money better spent on a replacement. Below that line, with life left on the clock, repair almost always wins. Ask for parts and labor as separate figures — it is normally the part, not the hours, that pushes a quote past the threshold.
What should I have ready before calling a ice maker technician in South Carolina?
Whether the mould fills with water at all — this splits the diagnosis in half. Whether the fridge is plumbed to a filtered line, and when the filter was last changed. Whether the ice maker arm or switch is in the on position (it gets knocked off constantly). Having those three answers ready is what turns a diagnose-then-return-visit into a single trip.
