Home Appliance Repair Service

Home appliance repair services fix washers, dryers, refrigerators, ovens, and other appliances in customers' homes.

With appliance replacement expensive ($400-$2,000+) and repair preferred, service generates revenue of $110,000-$390,000 with 60-75% margins.

The business requires service vehicle, tools and diagnostic equipment, parts inventory, appliance knowledge, and licensing.

Services include washer/dryer repair, refrigerator and freezer repair, oven and stove repair, dishwasher repair, garbage disposal, and appliance maintenance.

Pricing typically $100-$200 service call plus parts markup.

Success factors include broad appliance knowledge across brands, stocking common parts in vehicle, same-day or next-day service, warranty on repairs, and building recurring customer base.

Most appliance techs work independently with flexible scheduling.

Marketing focuses on local Google ads for 'appliance repair near me', reviews, and community reputation.

With appliances essential and repair cheaper than replacement in 2025, appliance repair offers fixing opportunities with steady demand.
