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.

What Middleton Owners Should Know
Most ice maker calls in Middleton 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.
Wisconsin has no separate appliance repair license; plumbing licensing covers appliances connected to water supply systems, including water heaters, but exempts minor repairs to appliances and repair or replacement of gas or electrical control valves and devices.

In Wisconsin, you can check a license with the Wisconsin DSPS LicensE credential lookup or report a problem to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Bureau of Consumer Protection.
