Appliance Repair in Chicago & Suburbs

Most appliance repairs in Chicago run $150–$400. What moves that number is the appliance, the brand, and the specific part that failed. A washer lid switch is a different job than a Sub-Zero compressor. Refrigerators typically land between $200 and $350. Washers and dryers between $150 and $300. Dishwashers and ovens around $180–$350.We write the quote before we touch anything. If the number doesn't make sense compared to replacement cost, we say so.

Two numbers tell you most of what you need to know: what the repair costs and what a replacement costs. If the repair runs more than half the replacement price, replace it. Under that — fix it. For premium brands like Sub-Zero or Miele, the math almost always favors repair because replacement costs are steep.Age shifts the calculation. A five-year-old refrigerator with a failed water valve is worth fixing. A fifteen-year-old one with a compressor problem probably isn't. We'll tell you which situation you're in before we start — no pressure either way.
