What Dryer Repairs Cost
Commercial repair pricing varies with the machine and the payment system, so treat home-dryer ranges as a floor. Published ranges:
- Heating element replacement: $150–$350 Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a dryer?
- Control board (part only): $90–$280 Source: Angi - How Much Does Dryer Repair Cost?
- Thermal fuse repair: $80–$130 Source: Angi - How Much Does It Cost to Repair a Dryer?
- Technician service / diagnostic fee, dryer: $50–$80 per visit Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a dryer?
