What the listings say about Maytag repair in Illinois

Counted from the 14 profiles above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.

Illinois holds 14 listed Maytag businesses, out of 652 nationwide. That ranks 19th of the 50 states with any, level with Alabama and behind Florida on 26. They are 14 of the 18 businesses listed in Illinois — 78% of the state directory.

Their ratings average 4.6, level with the 4.6 average across all 652 listed nationwide, and 12 of the 14 sit at 4.5 or better. 1 holds a straight 5.0, and 1 sits below 4.0. Between them they carry 2,177 reviews, the largest single tally being 969 on Fix It Guy Appliance Repair Chicago in Chicago. Rating and review volume are what the businesses' own public profiles report — treat a high average on six reviews differently from the same average on six hundred.

By review volume the group is led by Fix It Guy Appliance Repair Chicago in Chicago (969 reviews, 4.7), Chicago Appliance Repair Doctor in Chicago (757 reviews, 4.8) and Appliance Repair Stars in Chicago (90 reviews, 4.9). By rating it is E.G's Appliance Repair at 5.0 on 43 reviews, Appliance Repair Stars at 4.9 on 90 reviews and Chicago Appliance Repair Doctor at 4.8 on 757 reviews. Those are two different questions and they rarely give the same answer — volume tells you a company has been doing this at scale, a high average on a handful of reviews tells you much less.

12 of the 14 state that they are licensed, and 12 state that they carry insurance. On top of that, 11 show a Better Business Bureau accreditation in the profiles. 1 of the 14 advertises 24/7 emergency callout, and 2 advertise same-day service. All of that is self-stated in the listing, not verified here: ask for the license number and a current certificate of insurance, and for anything that opens a sealed refrigerant system ask to see federal EPA Section 608 certification, which is required in all fifty states.

6 of the 14 publish a founding year: the longest-established has been trading since 1939, and the median across those that say is 31 years. Chicago holds the most at 8 — 57% of the group — followed by Springfield on 3, across 5 Illinois cities with an index page. Between them they name 42 distinct towns, suburbs and neighborhoods in their stated service areas, so coverage reaches well past the cities listed here — give your address when you call rather than assuming.

Booking Maytag service in Illinois

The brand decides the parts route and the labour skill; the state decides the labour rate and the drive time. Both matter, and only one of them is on the quote.

Maytag is a mainstream American nameplate with mainstream parts support, and there is no complication to warn you about. Components are widely stocked, aftermarket equivalents exist for many of them, and a technician will often have the ordinary laundry failure in the van — which is why a first-visit fix is a reasonable expectation. No authorisation, no brand account, no factory tool. What deserves your attention is the quote rather than the brand: at this tier the repair is usually worth doing, so the real question is whether you are being charged for the right component. Ask which part, at what price, and what warranty comes with it.

  • Say whether the machine drains, whether it hums, and whether the drum moves at all. Those three details separate the cheap laundry faults from the expensive ones before anyone arrives.
  • A washer that fills but will not spin or drain is a lid switch or a drain restriction before it is a motor. Both are inexpensive.
  • A drain pump blocked by a coin or an underwire is a clean-out rather than a replacement. Ask which is being quoted.
  • Aftermarket parts exist for most components at this tier. Ask whether the quote is OEM or aftermarket and what warranty comes with the part.
  • Sealed-system refrigeration work requires an EPA 608 certified technician; laundry and dishwasher work does not.
  • The rating plate is under the lid or on the rear panel on laundry, and inside the fresh-food compartment on refrigeration.

The best-stocked parts situation in the trade. OEM components are easy to source, aftermarket equivalents exist for most of them, and a technician will often have the common failure on the van rather than ordering it. Compare parts suppliers before you agree to an OEM-only quote.

What a Maytag repair is worth paying

Category prices lifted to the mid-range tier at 1×, the same multiplier the value estimator uses. The line is half the replacement price: above it, on a machine past two-thirds of its life, replacing usually wins. National figures, not Illinois quotes.

The same 14 businesses also cover ice maker (2), wine cooler (2), range hood (1), which Maytag does not build. That is useful rather than irrelevant: one visit can cover two machines, and a second job on the same call-out costs far less than a second call-out. 3 of them also list appliance installation.

Maytag repair in Illinois — common questions

How many Maytag repair pros are listed in Illinois?
14 businesses listed in Illinois name Maytag among the brands they service — 78% of the 18 businesses the directory holds for the state, and 19th of the 50 states with any, out of 652 such businesses nationwide. Chicago holds the most at 8.
Do I need Maytag-authorised service in Illinois, or will any repair company do?
Maytag sits in the mid-range tier, so any qualified Illinois technician can take the job and you are choosing on rating, licensing and how clearly the fault is explained. None of the 14 listed here states a factory-authorised credential in its profile. While the appliance is inside its warranty period, check the manufacturer's terms before booking anyone — using an unauthorised technician can affect a claim.
Which Maytag appliances do Illinois pros repair?
Maytag covers laundry, refrigeration, freezers, dishwashers, ranges and microwaves, with laundry as the line the badge is best known for. The 14 listed in Illinois between them cover refrigerator, washer, dryer, dishwasher, oven & range, microwave, freezer. At the mid-range tier a comparable new refrigerator averages $1,200, which puts the repair-or-replace line near $600.
Are Maytag parts expensive in Illinois, and where do they come from?
The best-stocked parts situation in the trade. OEM components are easy to source, aftermarket equivalents exist for most of them, and a technician will often have the common failure on the van rather than ordering it. For Maytag specifically, parts are usually sourced through general parts retailers. Parts prices do not vary much by state — labor does, because it tracks local wages and drive time — so the 14 businesses listed here are competing mainly on the labor half of the quote and on how quickly they can get the component. Whoever you use will need the full model and serial number from the data plate to order the right part.
How do Illinois Maytag pros rate?
Their ratings average 4.6, against 4.6 across all 652 listed Maytag pros nationwide, and 12 of the 14 sit at 4.5 or better. The largest single review tally is 969 on Fix It Guy Appliance Repair Chicago in Chicago, out of 2,177 across the group. 12 of the 14 state that they are licensed, and 11 show a BBB accreditation — self-stated, so verify before booking.
Which Maytag pros are rated highest in Illinois?
E.G's Appliance Repair in Springfield at 5.0 on 43 reviews, Appliance Repair Stars in Chicago at 4.9 on 90 reviews, Chicago Appliance Repair Doctor in Chicago at 4.8 on 757 reviews. By volume rather than average the leader is Fix It Guy Appliance Repair Chicago in Chicago, on 969 reviews at 4.7. For Maytag the rating is only half the question — ask what the technician has actually opened on this platform before.
Which other brands do these Illinois businesses service?
The same 14 businesses also name KitchenAid (14), Whirlpool (14), Frigidaire (13), LG (13), Samsung (13), GE (11). That matters when a single visit can cover two machines — a technician already at the door for a Maytag fault will usually look at another appliance for a fraction of a second call-out fee.
Is it worth repairing my Maytag appliance?
The volume tier. These are the machines most technicians see most days, which is the single biggest advantage they have. The site's value estimator prices mid-range-tier machines at 1× a category's typical new price and depreciates from there, which is the honest way to frame it: compare the quote against what the machine is worth today, not against what it cost new. On that basis a Maytag refrigerator carries a repair-or-replace line near $600 once it is past 9 years old, and a washer near $400 past 7 years. Ask for parts and labor as separate figures so you can see which is driving the total.
What should I have ready before calling about my Maytag appliance?
The model and serial number from the data plate — photograph it, do not transcribe it. Then the error code if the machine shows one, when the fault started, and whether anything changed just before it did. Say whether the machine drains, whether it hums, and whether the drum moves at all. Those three details separate the cheap laundry faults from the expensive ones before anyone arrives. 1 of the 14 listed in Illinois advertises 24/7 emergency callout if this cannot wait.
