Commercial laundry repair is a narrower field than home appliance repair, and not every company that fixes a home washer takes on coin-op or on-premise laundry equipment. Below are commercial-capable companies within reach of Magalia, plus nearby appliance repair companies you can ask about laundry equipment.
