How Pricing Works

We charge a flat $99 diagnostic for the visit, which covers a full inspection and identification of the fault. Once we know exactly what is wrong you get a firm, written quote before any work starts — never a surprise bill afterwards.

If you go ahead with the repair on that same visit, the $99 is waived entirely. Component-level work — sensors, boards, fans, igniters, valves — is the large majority of what we do. Sealed-system and compressor jobs sit well above that, which is why they are listed separately rather than buried in an average.

$99
Diagnostic — waived with repair
Written quote before any work
Parts and labour both included in the quote
Warranty of up to 1 year on the repair
No charge if we cannot fix it

Typical Ranges by Symptom

Planning ranges, not quotes. Where your repair lands inside a range depends on the brand, the model, and which specific component turns out to be at fault — all of which the diagnostic settles before you commit to anything.

Symptom Typical range Usually comes down to
Diagnostic / service call $99 Waived when you go ahead with the repair
Refrigerator not cooling $310–$950 Evaporator fan, defrost circuit, thermistor or control fault
Ice maker not working $235–$715 Fill valve, module, or a frozen supply line
Door or drawer not sealing $205–$510 Gasket, hinge alignment, or a panel-ready door out of true
Wine column not holding temperature $345–$1,195 Damper, sensor, or a dual-zone control fault
Compressor / sealed system $1,250–$3,100 Includes licensed refrigerant handling and pressure testing
Oven not heating $255–$690 Bake or broil element, igniter, or thermostat
Burner won’t ignite $185–$440 Igniter, spark module, or a clogged orifice
Condenser clean-down after monsoon $135–$295 Packed coils stop shedding heat — shows up as constant running
Induction element or power fault $320–$950 Element, power board, or a failed cooling fan
Dishwasher won’t drain $190–$475 Pump, check valve, or a blocked drain path
Dishwasher leaking $215–$545 Door seal, sump gasket, or a cracked fitting
Error code / control board fault $275–$1,080 Board, harness, or the sensor the board is reading

What Moves the Price

Which part actually failed
A thermistor and a control board produce identical symptoms and differ by several hundred dollars. Guessing at that before diagnosis helps nobody.
Parts availability for your model
Current models carry stocked parts. Units past fifteen years sometimes need a sourced or superseded component, which moves both price and timeline.
Sealed-system work is its own tier
Refrigerant handling is licensed work, and the readings have to be taken against the ambient the unit actually sits in — a garage at 115°F, not the number on the data tag.
Access and installation
A panel-ready column built into cabinetry takes longer to pull and reset than a freestanding unit, and that time is real.

Repair Cost, Answered

Why ranges instead of one number?
Because a single number before diagnosis would be a guess. The same symptom can trace to a $40 sensor or an $800 board, and quoting the midpoint would be wrong in both directions. The $99 diagnostic replaces the range with a firm figure.
How does the $99 diagnostic work?
It covers the visit and a full inspection, and you get a written repair quote before anything is touched. Go ahead with the repair on that visit and the $99 is waived. Decline it and you have paid $99 for a straight answer about your appliance, with no obligation.
What does a compressor or sealed-system repair cost?
Typically $1,250–$3,100, including parts and the licensed refrigerant handling the work requires. We only quote sealed-system repairs after pressure testing, and we take those readings against the ambient the unit actually lives in — treating a compressor that is merely losing a fight with a 115°F garage as a failed one is a common reason this repair gets done twice.
Do you charge extra for the far side of the Valley?
No. The diagnostic is the same in Buckeye or Apache Junction as it is in Paradise Valley, and there is no distance surcharge. What the size of the Valley does affect is scheduling: the outer edges sometimes get a next-day window rather than same-day, and we say so when you book rather than on the day.
Is it worth repairing, or should I replace?
If the repair approaches half the cost of an equivalent new unit and the appliance is well past ten years old, replacement usually wins. We will tell you that plainly. See repair or replace for how we weigh it.
