Sub-Zero · Hingham, MA
Wine Cooler Repair
Dual-zone wine storage set into dining rooms, pantries and island runs, where quiet operation matters as much as the temperature. We handle zone temperatures that will not separate, noisy compressors and fans, humidity problems and door seals that sweat.
Flat $95 service call, credited against the repair once you approve it.
How it gets described
What people ring about
- Upper zone sitting several degrees above its setting
- Compressor cycling audibly under a quiet dining room
- Condensation forming on the inside of the glass door
- Bottles warm at the front of the shelf and cold at the back
On the visit
What actually gets measured
- Each zone measured at bottle height, front and back of the shelf
- Damper or second evaporator behaviour where the zones will not separate
- Compressor mounts and fan bearings, because noise is the usual complaint
- Door seal and glass pack condition where the inside of the door is sweating
None of that is a formality. A wine cooler repair quote written before the readings are taken is a guess with a price on it.
What it tends to cost
Ranges, not a quote
These are the bands this shop actually works to on the South Shore. Where a job lands inside one depends on the part, on how much of the cabinet has to come apart to reach it, and on how long that takes. Your figure is quoted after the diagnosis, before any work starts.
| Repair | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Door gasket or seal replacement | $270 $740 |
| Evaporator or condenser fan motor | $290 $600 |
| Defrost heater, thermostat or sensor | $300 $730 |
| Ice maker, water valve or supply line | $300 $710 |
| Electronic control board | $480 $910 |
| Compressor or sealed-system repair | $1,010 $2,090 |
Flat $95 service call covering the visit and full diagnosis, credited against the repair once you approve it.
For comparison, replacing a built-in of this kind runs $7,860 to $20,240 for the appliance alone, before delivery, installation or panel work. That gap is usually why a board or a fan motor is worth repairing on a cabinet that is otherwise sound.

Bottles at the front of each shelf were warm and the back was cold. A shelf had been put back the wrong way round and the circulation fan was tired. He dealt with both and talked me through loading it better.

Upper zone sat five degrees above where I set it while the lower one held fine. A damper motor had stuck open. He replaced it, recalibrated both zones and left a log sheet so I could watch it settle.

The compressor had become loud enough to hear from the dining table. Mounting grommets had perished in the damp air out here. He replaced those and a fan bushing, and now you cannot hear it from two feet away.
