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. Companies that mention commercial laundry work come first, then other appliance repair companies near Rochester, with distances.

Local Notes for Rochester
Most washer calls in Rochester come down to the same handful of parts: the drain pump and filter, the lid switch or door lock, the drive belt or coupler, the inlet valve and the suspension.
Minnesota has no state license for mechanical contractors or their workers; businesses contracting for gas, heating, cooling or refrigeration work file a mechanical contractor bond with the Department of Labor and Industry, and some cities require their own licenses or competency cards.

In Minnesota, you can check a license with the DLI License and Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, Consumer Assistance.
