What repairs cost · Denver, CO
What the flat service call covers, and when it comes off the bill
The visit, flat rate
$89
One figure for coming out and reading the cabinet properly. The repair itself is priced from whichever published band the readings point at.
Denver Sub-Zero Repair Pros charges one flat $89 to come out and read a wine cabinet properly, and that is the only figure on the bill until you have agreed a repair. It pays for the drive, the time, and a set of readings taken with instruments rather than a guess made from the doorway. Approve the work and the $89 comes straight back off.
What the figure covers
- Getting there, and the time on site
- The drive out and however long the cabinet takes to read. There is no clock running on top of the flat fee.
- The readings themselves
- A probe on the shelf in each zone, set beside what the panel claims; the interior fan measured for the current it pulls; the coil inspected once the grille is off; the door shut on its seal from corner to corner.
- The verdict, written down
- Which band the fault falls in and the firm figure inside it, together with the readings that led there, left with you whether or not you go ahead.
- A part nobody keeps on the van
- If the cabinet needs something that has to be ordered in, you are told on the visit, and the fee still covers the diagnosis that found it.

Before any of it
One flat $89 pays for somebody to arrive and read the cabinet properly; approve the repair and that $89 leaves the bill again.
Decline the repair and the visit is the whole of what you have paid. There is no hourly meter and nothing is ordered on an estimate.
What puts a job at the top of the band
- A second cabinet in the same house looked at on the same visit, which is still one fee rather than two
- An address at the far edge of the round, which is agreed on the phone before anyone sets off
What keeps it at the bottom
- Nothing. The fee is flat, and it is the same figure whatever the cabinet turns out to need
- Approving the repair, which takes it off the bill entirely
Three questions people ask about this one
Do I still pay if I decline the repair?
Yes, and that is the whole of what you pay. The fee buys the diagnosis, so you keep the readings, the named fault and the figure it would cost to put right, and you are free to do nothing with them. Nothing is ordered and no work starts without your word.
Can you quote a wine cabinet repair over the phone?
Only as a band. Five published ranges cover almost everything a wine cabinet needs, and a description of the symptom will usually narrow it to one or two of them. The single figure inside the band waits for the readings, because the same warm top rack has three different causes. Ring (720) 790-9436 and you will hear the band.
Is the fee charged per cabinet or per visit?
Per visit. A house with a wine column upstairs and an undercounter unit in the basement bar pays once, and both get read while somebody is there with the instruments out. Mention the second cabinet when you book, so the slot is long enough to do both properly.

Freezer went warm every afternoon, when the west sun hits that wall of the house. Airflow was choked behind the toe panel and a vent had iced shut. Better since, but I waited five days.
Stellan L.Park Hill
Narrow kitchen in a pre-war building near the park, integrated freezer running warm, and the display insisting everything was fine. A thermistor was lying to it. He proved that with his own probe before ordering a part, which I appreciated.
Neve S.Cheesman Park
Cubes had welded into a single block and tasted of whatever else was in there. A filter years overdue and a bin lid that no longer sealed. Both replaced, and the line flushed properly.

On site seven days a week, 8 am to 8 pm across the Denver round. Line picked up 24/7. The diagnosis is $89 and it comes off an approved repair.
