It never fails: the ice maker quits the week you're hosting. One day it's filling the bin, the next you're buying bags of ice at the corner store. Before you write it off, it's worth knowing that most ice maker problems come down to a handful of causes and most are very fixable.

The quick version

Most ice maker faults are water-supply, filter, or control issues. Repair is usually worth it. In Hamilton, ice maker repair is a flat $350, and a $120 service call covers the diagnosis first.

What's actually wrong with your ice maker?

Match what you're seeing to the likely cause it'll tell you how serious it is before we even arrive:

Symptom	Likely cause
No ice at all	Water supply, inlet valve, a frozen fill line, or a failed control module
Too little ice	Clogged water filter, low water pressure, or freezer set too warm
Ice tastes or smells off	Old filter or a stale water line usually a clean/filter change
Leaking water	Cracked line, loose fitting, or a faulty inlet valve
Cubes too small or hollow	Water pressure or inlet-valve problem
Won't dispense	Clumped ice, auger motor, or a dispenser switch fault

Repair or replace?

Unless the whole appliance is on its way out, an ice maker is almost always worth repairing the common faults above are far cheaper to fix than replacing a fridge or a standalone ice machine. We'll tell you honestly if we ever think replacement is the better call.
