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. The Ferndale list below starts with companies that mention commercial, laundromat or multifamily laundry work within a longer drive, followed by the nearest appliance repair companies.

14 repair companies serve Ferndale from within 60 miles. The rest are spread across Bellingham (7), Arlington (2), and Marysville (2). Distances run up to about 60 miles. The closest is ICE DR., about 6.3 miles away. No company within 60 miles of Ferndale names commercial, laundromat or coin-op laundry work in its listing, so the list adds matches from farther out and the closest appliance repair companies. Across 11 rated companies, the average public rating is 4.2 stars. Because the nearest shops are farther out, ask each company whether Ferndale is inside its regular service area.
Listings come from public business data. A brand or service mention means the company names it in its listing or website; it is not a certification. Verify experience, licensing and insurance before hiring.
