An ice maker needs three things: water at enough pressure, a freezer cold enough to freeze it and a working mechanism to harvest the cubes. Most repairs fix one of those three. We pull these listings from public business data, remove closed businesses, parts stores and unrelated trades, and put companies that mention ice makers and refrigerators at the top.

Freezer and Ice Maker Notes for Central, SC
Most ice maker calls in Central come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.
South Carolina does not issue a license specific to appliance repair; mechanical work such as plumbing, heating, air conditioning and refrigeration is licensed by the Contractor's Licensing Board for commercial-scale jobs and by the Residential Builders Commission for residential HVAC and plumbing.
