Cost by Repair Type (Component Prices)
❄️ Refrigerator Repair
Typical Tampa Bay range: $150–$500In 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.
🧺 Washer Repair
Typical Tampa Bay range: $150–$300Tampa 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.

🍽️ Dishwasher Repair
Typical Tampa Bay range: $150–$250Hard 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.
Complete Dishwasher Repair Services →🧊 Ice Maker Repair
Typical Tampa Bay range: $120–$250🚚 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.
Tampa Bay Discounts
These aren’t afterthoughts — Tampa Bay has one of the largest veteran populations in Florida, and a fixed-income household in Largo (33771) or Bradenton (34205) shouldn’t have to choose between getting their oven fixed and paying a bill.

The typical total repair visit in Tampa Bay is $295 (median), based on 6,738 real local jobs, with most repairs falling between $150 and $400. By appliance, medians run from $250 (dishwasher) to $344 (dryer). Bozmanfix charges a $99 diagnostic fee that applies directly to the repair cost — if you approve the repair, the diagnostic is free.

Our technicians live locally and carry stocked service vehicles, so most repairs are completed during the first visit.
Is it worth repairing an old appliance or should I replace it?
In most cases, repair makes more sense. With a Tampa Bay median repair of $295 versus $1,500 to $3,000 for a new major appliance, repair usually wins. Use the 50% rule: if the repair costs less than half a comparable new unit and the appliance is within its lifespan, repair is the smart call. Our technicians will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
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.

Veterans and seniors get $30 off any repair. New customers get $20 off their first service call. The Priority Membership at $179/year includes five free diagnostics, priority scheduling, $30 off labor on every repair, and an extended warranty on all previous work.

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 — $180 and done in 45 minutes. The other company wanted $600 and couldn’t come until Tuesday.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
