Cost by Repair Type (Component Prices)

❄️ Refrigerator Repair

Typical Tampa Bay range: $297 to $480
Evaporator fan motor replacement$346
Compressor replacement (most expensive job)$300–$500
Ice maker repair$449

In Tampa Bay, refrigerator compressors fail younger than the national average because they run almost continuously fighting year-round heat and humidity. A compressor that lasts fifteen years in Minnesota struggles to hit ten in Brandon (33510) or Wesley Chapel (33543).

Homeowners in Progress Village (33619) and Town ‘n’ Country (33634) often call us when components start failing in sequence — the ice maker goes first, then the compressor starts cycling irregularly, then door seals crack from humidity.

🔶 Avoid this mistake: Replacing a working refrigerator because the ice maker stopped is one of the most expensive errors Tampa Bay homeowners make. With a real median fridge repair of $315 versus $1,500 or more for a new unit, repair wins the math easily.

🧺 Washer Repair

Typical Tampa Bay range: $323 to $448
Drain pump replacement (most common job)$346
Control board — Samsung and LG front-loaders$475
Door gasket replacement$460

Tampa Bay’s hard water accelerates every one of these failures. The area sits on some of the hardest water in Florida — calcium and magnesium deposits build up inside hoses, pumps, and bearings over months until something gives. Neighborhoods like Riverview (33578) and Lutz (33558) see premature bearing failures and drainage problems that leave families without clean laundry for days.

🌀 Dryer Repair

Typical Tampa Bay range: $346
Heating element replacement$325
Thermal fuse$325
Drum bearings$325

Dryers in Tampa work overtime pulling moisture out of laundry that’s already damp from humid air, which burns out heating elements faster than in drier climates.

🍳 Oven and Cooktop Repair

Typical Tampa Bay range: $294 to $491
Bake element replacement$325
Gas igniters$352
Control boards$475

Tampa Bay’s afternoon thunderstorms cause power surges that damage control boards — we carry replacements on every service vehicle.

🍽️ Dishwasher Repair

Typical Tampa Bay range: $346
Drain pump replacement$346
Door latches$345
Spray arms$345

Hard water hits dishwashers the hardest — we’ve seen pristine-looking units in Clearwater that internally looked like stalactite caves. At a real median of $250, the dishwasher is Tampa Bay’s most affordable major-appliance repair. The fix is rarely complicated once you know what you’re dealing with, but you need technicians who understand Tampa Bay’s water conditions.

🚚 Bozmanfix technicians live and work in Tampa Bay. When a customer in South Tampa (33611) calls at 8 AM with a refrigerator full of food that stopped cooling overnight, we can have someone there by noon — not as a marketing slogan, but because we’re not driving from the other side of the state.

We stock our trucks with the parts that actually break in this area because we see the same failures every day.

Which appliance is cheapest to repair in Tampa Bay?

Dishwashers, with a local median of $250, are the most affordable major appliance to repair in Tampa Bay. Dryers run highest at a median of $344, driven by heating elements and drum bearings that wear faster in the humid climate.

What Tampa Bay Homeowners Say

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Our refrigerator stopped cooling on a Saturday afternoon. Bozmanfix had a tech at our door in Brandon by 4 PM. Turned out to be the evaporator fan — $422 and done in 45 minutes. The other company wanted $600 and couldn’t come until Tuesday.”

— Kevin M., Brandon (33510)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“I’ve used the Priority Membership for a year now. Between the washer, the dryer, and the dishwasher — all hit by Tampa’s hard water — the membership paid for itself after the first call. The 24-hour scheduling alone is worth it.”

— Sandra T., Clearwater (33755)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“My oven stopped heating the night before Thanksgiving. They sent a tech to South Tampa that same evening, replaced the bake element, and saved our holiday dinner. Honest pricing, no surprises.”

— Linda P., South Tampa (33611)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“The dryer was making a terrible grinding noise. Bozmanfix tech diagnosed a worn drum bearing in five minutes, had the part on the truck, and finished in under an hour. $195 total. The store wanted me to buy a new dryer for $800.”

— Robert C., Wesley Chapel (33543)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Senior discount was a nice surprise. The tech was honest — told me my dishwasher wasn’t worth repairing and helped me pick a replacement instead of charging me for a repair that wouldn’t last. That’s why I keep calling them.”

— Maria G., Largo (33771)
