Quick answer

Why won't my commercial dryer heat?

A commercial dryer that won't heat is most often a restricted vent, a failed igniter or gas valve coil on gas models, or a burned-out element or tripped high-limit on electric models. We check airflow on every dryer call, because a lint-packed exhaust run causes more repeat failures than any part. We service Speed Queen, Huebsch, Continental Girbau, Electrolux, UniMac and Maytag Commercial dryers.

Services covered

Dryer problems we repair

Gas dryer: no heat

Igniter, flame sensor, gas valve coils and the safety circuit. On a gas dryer that clicks but never lights, the igniter and valve coils are the first things we test.

Typical repair: $225–$585 parts and labor, plus the diagnostic

Electric dryer: no heat

Heating elements, high-limit and thermal fuse, and the relay that feeds the element. We confirm the cause rather than swapping a fuse that will blow again.

Typical repair: $225–$585 parts and labor, plus the diagnostic

Won't start or stops mid-cycle

Door switch, start switch, motor start components, control board and payment interface. We test the circuit before replacing the part.

Typical repair: $225–$585 parts and labor, plus the diagnostic

Overheating or shutting off early

Almost always airflow: a clogged lint screen, packed exhaust duct, a crushed duct behind the machine or a stuck vent flap. We check the exhaust run on every dryer call.

Typical repair: Quoted on site

Drum not turning, belt and rollers

Broken belts, worn drum rollers and idler pulleys, and motor faults. Squealing, thumping or a drum that stops turning.

Typical repair: $225–$585 parts and labor, plus the diagnostic

Stacked dryers

Both pockets are diagnosed on one visit, with the vent, gas supply and electrical checked together.

Typical repair: $225–$585 parts and labor, plus the diagnostic

Why call us

Why operators call us for commercial dryer repair

Airflow is the real culprit

A long, bent or lint-packed exhaust duct makes dryers run hot, dry slowly and trip safeties. Replacing a thermal fuse without fixing the airflow just resets the clock. We look at the exhaust every time.

Fire safety matters

Lint is fuel. A dryer that is overheating or drying slowly is telling you something. We'll tell you plainly if the vent needs cleaning by a duct-cleaning contractor.

Gas and electric, one technician

The same technician handles igniters, valve coils, elements and controls, so you don't need to schedule a second visit for a second trade.

Written quote, written warranty

Scope and price in writing before any work starts, and a 1-year parts-and-labor warranty on the repair.

If your equipment is down right now

What to check before you call about a commercial dryer

  1. 1. Clean the lint screen

    Empty the lint screen and look for lint packed around the screen housing. A blocked screen is the most common cause of slow drying.

  2. 2. Check the vent flap outside

    With the dryer running, confirm the outside flap opens and air is moving. If it stays shut, the vent is restricted.

  3. 3. Check power and gas

    Look at the breaker. On a gas dryer, confirm the gas valve behind the machine is open. If you smell gas, leave the building, don't operate switches or flames, and call your gas utility or 911 from outside.

  4. 4. Note the model and symptoms

    Write down the model number, whether the drum turns, and whether you hear clicking. It helps us bring the right parts.

  5. 5. Call us

    (651) 364-7466, seven days a week from 7am to 9pm. Tell us how many dryers are down.

FAQs

Commercial dryer repair questions

Do you repair commercial dryers near me in Minneapolis and St. Paul?

Yes. We repair commercial gas and electric dryers across Minneapolis, St. Paul, the Twin Cities metro and western Wisconsin, for hotels, apartments, gyms, clinics and laundromats. Same-day appointments are available, 7am–9pm every day.

Why is my commercial dryer not heating?

On gas dryers it's usually the igniter or the gas valve coils. On electric dryers it's a burned-out element or a tripped high-limit or thermal fuse. A restricted vent can cause any of these, so we check airflow too.

Why does my commercial dryer take so long to dry?

Restricted airflow is the most common reason: a full lint screen, a packed or crushed exhaust duct, or a stuck vent flap. A weak burner or element is the second most likely cause.

Why does my commercial dryer keep shutting off?

Dryers shut off when the high-limit or thermal fuse trips from overheating, almost always because of poor airflow. Replacing the fuse alone won't hold until the airflow is fixed.

How much does commercial dryer repair cost?

Most commercial dryer repairs land between $225 and $585 in parts and labor, plus the diagnostic, depending on the part. The commercial diagnostic is $175–$299 depending on the equipment, billed separately and not credited to the repair. Vent and duct work is quoted on site, and you get the price in writing before any work begins.

Do you repair gas commercial dryers?

Yes. We service gas dryers: igniters, flame sensors and gas valve coils are common repairs. If you smell gas, leave the building, don't operate switches or flames, and call your gas utility (CenterPoint Energy or Xcel Energy) or 911 from outside before anything else.

Can you fix a dryer that takes coins or a card but won't start?

Yes. We diagnose the dryer and its payment interface together, since a coin or card reader fault can look like a dryer that won't start. See our coin-operated laundry repair page for details.

Is a clogged dryer vent a fire hazard?

Yes. Lint buildup in the exhaust is a recognized cause of dryer fires, so a dryer that runs hot or dries slowly should have its vent checked and cleaned promptly. We check airflow on every dryer call and tell you plainly if the duct needs cleaning by a duct-cleaning contractor.

How much is a commercial appliance diagnostic?

Commercial diagnostic is $175–$299 depending on the equipment; it's billed separately from the repair, and you get a written quote before any repair work.

What payment terms do you offer commercial accounts?

First visit is card-on-file or COD. Once an account is established, we invoice Net-15 or Net-30 with itemized statements aligned to your accounting cycle. We accept POs from restaurant groups, hotel brands, property management firms, school districts, and city and county accounts. We accept ACH and card payments.

Are weekend calls available?

Yes — we work 7am to 9pm every day, including weekends, with no weekend surcharge. Same-day appointments are available for equipment failures across the Twin Cities metro; call early. We do not offer overnight or holiday dispatch.

What warranty comes on commercial repairs?

A 1-year written parts-and-labor warranty on every commercial repair — the same failure mode, on the same unit, within 12 months is covered at no additional charge. Some sealed-system components carry an extended manufacturer warranty on top; those terms are itemized on the invoice.

Can you provide written estimates and health-inspector documentation?

Yes. Written estimates are issued before any major-component work. On request we provide inspector-ready documentation: repair scope, part numbers, and the date service restored the unit to spec.

Which Twin Cities cities and ZIP codes do you cover for commercial service?

Full Twin Cities metro — Minneapolis (55401–55488), Saint Paul (55101–55155), Bloomington, Edina, Eden Prairie, Maple Grove, Woodbury, Eagan, Plymouth, Minnetonka, Roseville, Burnsville, and the surrounding suburbs — plus Hudson, WI 54016 and Western Wisconsin.
