Budgeting for Commercial Repairs
Commercial and laundromat machine pricing varies with the machine and parts, so treat home-washer ranges as a floor. Published ranges:

- Agitator replacement: $350–$575 Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a washing machine?

- After-hours / emergency visit surcharge: $100–$200 per visit Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a washing machine?
