What this job costs and how it is agreed
A starting figure, not a quote. What moves it is the model, how the unit is built in and which part it needs — settled after the on-site diagnostic.

On the visit
How this visit actually goes
The same order every time, so nothing is opened and nothing is charged before you have seen the figure and said yes.
-
01
We arrive and listen
You tell us what the unit has been doing — not only what it is doing now. A cabinet that drifted warm over two weeks and one that stopped overnight are rarely the same problem.
-
02
Codes, then the sealed system
Active and stored codes are read on site, then the sealed system and the airflow are tested before anything is opened.
-
03
The inexpensive causes first
Gasket, grille clearance, condenser condition. A warm cabinet is one of those far more often than it is a compressor, and they are checked before anything expensive is proposed.
-
04
The price, in writing
The scope and the figure are written down and handed to you. Nothing is opened until you have approved them, and the diagnostic comes off the bill if you go ahead.
The money
What this usually costs in South Florida
The starting figure, the range the market quotes around it, and what pushes a job to either end.

Diagnostic visit cost
What a first visit costs, and why it is the only honest way to price the repair. The fee is credited toward the work when you go ahead, so on a job we carry out it is not an extra line.
- Credited toward the repair when you approve it
- Includes reading the active and stored codes
- A second unit at the same address costs less than a second visit

About Sub-Zero diagnostic visit
Why the visit starts with a diagnosis
The same symptom has several ordinary causes that sit hundreds of dollars apart, and only one of them is yours. Reading the codes, testing the sealed system and checking the airflow is what turns "it is not cooling properly" into a repair with a price on it. The fee is credited toward the work when you go ahead, so on a job we carry out it is not an extra line on the bill.
What the technician does on site
- Reads the active and stored codes, and asks what the unit has been doing rather than only what it is doing now
- Tests the sealed system and the airflow before anything is opened
- Checks the inexpensive causes first — gasket, grille clearance, condenser condition
- Writes down the scope and the price, and waits for your approval
What you can do before we arrive
Have the model number from the plate inside the door, and a photograph of the display if there is a code on it. If there is more than one unit at the address, say so when you book — a second unit seen on the same visit costs less than a second visit.

Before you book
Questions about Sub-Zero diagnostic visit
Is the diagnostic fee credited toward the repair?
Yes. It starts at $95 and comes off the bill when you go ahead with the work, so on a job we carry out it is not an extra line.
What if I decide not to do the repair?
You pay the diagnostic fee and nothing else. The visit, the testing and the written scope have happened either way, and you leave knowing what is wrong.
How long does it take?
Usually under an hour for the diagnosis itself. Whether we finish the repair the same day depends on the part and on how the unit is built into the cabinetry.
Can you diagnose it over the phone?
We can narrow it. With the model number and a description we will tell you the likely causes and the range — but the same symptom has several causes hundreds of dollars apart, and only the appliance settles which is yours.
