The Athens Price Table
| Appliance | Median with a part | Middle half | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Refrigerator | $410 | $336 to $511 | Athens invoices |
| Dishwasher | $355 | $295 to $440 | Athens invoices |
| Oven and range | $350 | $300 to $540 | Athens, small sample |
| Washer | $348 | $287 to $424 | Athens invoices |
| Dryer | $356 | $298 to $424 | Georgia figure |
| Freezer and ice maker | $385 | $299 to $524 | Georgia figure |
Two rows carry Georgia figures rather than Athens ones, since our Athens dryer and ice maker repairs are too few to stand on their own. The method is identical either way: parts, labor and the service call together, on jobs where a component was actually replaced.
Commercial accounts are excluded from every figure on this page, so a restaurant cooler is not inflating a number a household is reading. Measured the same way, 67.7 percent of Athens repairs with a part stayed below $400, where the Georgia share is 63.2 percent.
What Sets the Athens Numbers Apart
Athens-Clarke County is a unified city and county about 65 miles northeast of Atlanta, with 127,315 residents in the balance city at the 2020 census across about 116 square miles of land. Renters outnumber owners here, 59.3 percent to 40.7, and the median age is 29.4, by the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 estimates. Three things about Athens show up in the numbers below, and a fourth about the depth of our own records here.
The oven band is the widest on the page $300 TO $540, SMALL SAMPLE
The Bozmanfix Athens oven median with a part is $350 and the middle half runs from $300 to $540, the widest band on the page, on a small sample. Company-wide the two components at the top of the oven list are the control board at $454 and the thermostat at $422, against an igniter at $349 and a bake element at $329.
Part of the spread is what sits in Athens kitchens: Bozmanfix Athens oven records include a Viking double wall oven and a KitchenAid double oven, and a double wall oven carries a $150 diagnostic instead of $99. On ranges, 8 of the 29 Athens jobs were for burners or ignition. The detail is on oven and range repair in Athens.
If your oven is the problem, the estimate on the phone has to be a range rather than a number. See gas burner will not light and how long ovens last.
Whirlpool leads and LG barely appears WHIRLPOOL 50, LG 9, OF 208 BRANDED JOBS
Where a make was written on the Athens job, 208 times in all, Whirlpool comes first with 50, then Samsung 44, GE 33, Maytag 26, Frigidaire 25, LG 9, KitchenAid 6, Kenmore 5, Amana 5, Bosch 4, Speed Queen 3 and Viking 2. LG is 4.3 percent here.
Whirlpool, GE and Frigidaire between them are 51.9 percent of our branded Athens jobs. Speed Queen appears three times.
Read the list as service calls by make. Which makes hold up better is a separate question, answered on most reliable appliance brands.
Soft water from two rivers and a shared reservoir TOTAL HARDNESS 34 MG/L
Three sources feed the county system in the 2025 water quality report of Athens-Clarke County Public Utilities: Bear Creek Reservoir plus intakes on the North Oconee and the Middle Oconee. The reservoir holds about five billion gallons and is shared through the Upper Oconee Basin Water Authority with Barrow, Jackson and Oconee counties. The J. G. Beacham Water Treatment Plant is the county’s sole plant for drinking water, rated in a 2016 county-hosted article at 36 million gallons a day, and the 2025 report counts 95,000 tests at the plant during treatment.
On the USGS scale, where soft water runs from 0 to 60 mg/L, the 34 mg/L of total hardness in the county’s third-quarter 2025 tap analysis counts as soft. The Bozmanfix Athens dishwasher median with a part is $355, and leaks and drain complaints lead the booking notes; the detail is on dishwasher repair in Athens.

Athens Postal Areas We Serve
Our Athens work comes from four postal areas, and one price list covers them all with nothing added for distance. The county line runs through them: measured by land in the Census Bureau’s ZIP-to-county file, roughly a quarter of 30606 is Oconee County, 63.2 percent of 30607 is Jackson County, and 30601 takes in slivers of Madison and Jackson. Our four working Athens ZIP codes are 30601, 30605, 30606 and 30607.
| Area | People | Our jobs | Households | Last 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The largest postal area | 47,865 | 213 | 174 | 41 |
| The second largest | 41,544 | 186 | 146 | 37 |
| The third area | 25,899 | 64 | 59 | 13 |
| The smallest area | 10,700 | 40 | 36 | 8 |
Read the people column against the jobs column and the two large areas separate from the two small ones. The top two hold about 71 percent of the population between them and 79 percent of our Athens work. The largest area is 30606 and the second 30605.
Split by postal area, 30606 has a $349 Bozmanfix median for a repair with a part and a middle half of $285 to $466; 30605 sits at $346, from $278 to $454; 30601 at $320, from $279 to $392. Our repairs in 30607 are still too few for a median of their own.
The balance city alone holds 57,090 housing units in the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 survey, with a median year built of 1987. Wherever the address, the Bozmanfix diagnostic is $99 and comes off an approved repair, and parts and labor carry 90 days of warranty.

Symptoms We Hear From Athens Kitchens and Laundry Rooms
- Oven heats slowly, holds the wrong temperature, or the display has gone dark: on Bozmanfix company tickets the board is near the costly end at $454, ahead of a thermostat at $422. The Athens oven band is the widest on this page, so the diagnosis decides the bill. Tell us the model when you book; a premium range changes what the technician brings. See oven and range repair in Athens and how long ovens last.
- Fresh-food side warm while the freezer stays cold: the evaporator fan at $423 company-wide or the defrost heater or timer at $396, and the Athens refrigerator band runs from $336 to $511. A cabinet that is not cooling, not cold enough or not holding its temperature accounts for 35 of the 74 Bozmanfix Athens refrigerator records. See refrigerator repair in Athens, refrigerator not cooling and the right refrigerator temperature.
- Dishwasher leaves standing water, or stops mid-cycle: drain pump at $358 company-wide at Bozmanfix, circulation motor at $377, control board at $410. See dishwasher repair in Athens and a dishwasher that will not drain.
- Washer will not finish a spin, or moves across the floor when it tries: worn suspension ($370 on Bozmanfix tickets), a drain pump ($383) or the door lock ($359). Our Athens washer band runs from $287 to $424, the tightest of the four Athens appliance bands in the cost table. See washer repair in Athens and washing machine out of balance.
- Dryer runs a full cycle and the clothes are still damp: heating element at $367 company-wide at Bozmanfix, drive belt at $322, thermostat at $349, or a vent run that needs clearing at $357. Tell us at booking how long the vent run is, if you know; that answer shortens the visit. See dryer repair in Athens and dryer not heating.
- Ice bin empty while the water dispenser still works: and that split points at the module and the fill tube rather than the supply, and saying which one you have narrows the job before we arrive. See ice maker and freezer repair in Athens and ice maker not making ice.
- A rental unit that has just changed tenants and nothing seems right: mention it when you book. A technician who knows the unit has just been reoccupied checks the supply, the levelling and the vent before condemning anything.
Fix It or Buy New: The Athens Arithmetic
A median Bozmanfix repair of $340, part, labor and visit together, is the number to set against a new appliance plus delivery, installation and haul-away.
The oven is the appliance to watch. With a local middle half running to $540, a failed control board on an older range can reach a real share of a replacement. You get the full price after the diagnosis and before any work, and the decision is yours.
The compressor is the other component worth naming out loud. Company-wide at Bozmanfix it comes to about $846, with its middle half from $482 to $1,237, against $376 to $533 for the other common refrigerator repairs. On an older refrigerator it is the repair that deserves a pause; refrigerator repair in Athens lays out the full list.
For rental property the sum includes the tenant’s days without the appliance as well as the bill. Our framework is the repair or replace guide, lifespan by appliance is in how long refrigerators last and how long washing machines last, and every component figure quoted here comes from appliance repair parts cost.

Athens Appliance Repair: What People Ask Us
How much does appliance repair cost in Athens, GA?
Plan on about $340: that is the middle Bozmanfix Athens ticket when a part was needed, service call and labor included, and the central half spans $283 to $452. 67.7 percent of those Athens repairs came in under $400. Appliance by appliance, refrigerators come to $410, dishwashers $355 and washers $348, with ovens and ranges at $350 on a small sample. Dryer and ice maker repairs here are too few, so those two use Georgia medians of $354 and $385.
What does the diagnostic visit cost in Athens?
$99 for a single appliance, and the $99 is taken off the bill once you approve the repair. A stacked washer-dryer or a double wall oven is diagnosed for $150, which is credited in the same way. A veteran or a senior saves $30 on the repair; a household new to us saves $20. Parts and labor stay under warranty for 90 days.
Which appliance costs the most to repair in Athens?
The refrigerator. The Bozmanfix Athens refrigerator median is $410 once a part is involved, and the middle 50 percent of those bills sit from $336 to $511. The one dear repair is the compressor, about $846 across the company; nothing else on the common refrigerator list goes past $533 or under $376. The oven has the widest Athens band, $300 to $540 on a small sample. Company-wide its control board comes to $454 and the thermostat to $422, against an igniter at $349.
Do you work with landlords and property managers?
Yes. The Census Bureau counts 59.3 percent of occupied Athens-Clarke homes as rented, and eight of our Athens records name a landlord, an absent owner or a tenant. Name the person who opens the door and the person who signs off on the price, and the diagnosis goes to whoever approves it. If a unit is changing tenants, say so when you book and leave us the new tenant’s number.
Which Athens areas do you cover?
All four: 30601, 30605, 30606 and 30607, on one price list with nothing added for distance. Parts of them lie in Oconee, Jackson and Madison counties, and those addresses are covered on the same terms. The two largest areas carry most of the work, 213 and 186 jobs against 64 and 40.
Is Athens water hard on appliances?
Athens water is soft: 34 mg/L of total hardness in the county’s third-quarter 2025 tap analysis, against a USGS soft band that tops out at 60 mg/L. The water comes from the North Oconee River, the Middle Oconee River and Bear Creek Reservoir, treated at the J. G. Beacham plant. The figure is a single quarterly plant sample, not a reading at your tap.
What have you actually repaired in Athens?
503 jobs across 414 households since February 2023. Refrigerators and washers tie at 74 jobs apiece; then come dishwashers with 43, ranges and ovens with 29, dryers with 26 and the ice and freezer group with 9. Whirlpool heads the make count with 50 of 208, followed by Samsung on 44, GE on 33, Maytag on 26, Frigidaire on 25 and LG on 9. 99 of those jobs fall in the last twelve months, 32 of them washers, and every month of 2024 and 2025 carried work. That depth is what lets us quote Athens medians appliance by appliance.
