Only 1 listing for Speed Queen in Illinois
Illinois ranks 11th of the 22 states carrying Speed Queen, against 2 in Colorado. Thin coverage here is a limit of this directory rather than a statement about the market: 17 other businesses are listed in Illinois, and at this tier most of them can take a Speed Queen job — ask when you call.
What the listings say about Speed Queen repair in Illinois
Counted from the 1 profile above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.
Illinois holds a single listed Speed Queen business, out of 28 nationwide. That ranks 11th of the 22 states with any, level with Hawaii and behind Colorado on 2. It is 1 of the 18 businesses listed in Illinois — 6% of the state directory.
It carries a 4.8 rating, against 4.6 across all 28 listed nationwide. It carries 65 reviews. 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.
The listed business states that it is licensed and states that it carries insurance. Its profile also states a Better Business Bureau accreditation. It advertises 24/7 emergency callout. 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.
It has been trading since 1957 — 69 years. It works out of Chicago. It names 4 distinct towns, suburbs and neighborhoods in its stated service area, so its reach is wider than the town it sits in — give your address when you call.

Booking Speed Queen 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.
This is laundry built to be taken apart, which is a genuinely different proposition from most of the directory. Assemblies are individually serviceable rather than sealed, mechanical controls appear on part of the line, and the brand builds commercial laundry alongside its home machines — so a repair here often makes sense at an age where another brand would have failed the arithmetic long ago. It also widens the pool of people who can help you. A shop that services commercial laundry has worked on closely related platforms as a matter of routine, and components move through commercial laundry distributors as well as general retailers.

- Ask whether the shop services commercial laundry. Closely related platforms run in laundromats and apartment laundry rooms, and that experience transfers.
- Because assemblies are individually serviceable, a component-level repair is often possible where another brand would need a whole module.
- Parts route through commercial laundry distributors as well as general retailers, which is a wider net than most brands have.
- On the mechanical-control models there is no board to fail and no code to read. Describe the sequence the machine goes through instead.
- A repair here can be worth authorising at an age where a budget machine would be replaced. That is the design rather than optimism.
- Have the model number ready; the home and commercial-grade lines are not identical and the parts follow the model.
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 Speed Queen 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.
| Category | Pros here | New at this tier | Repair-or-replace line |
|---|---|---|---|
| Washertypical repair $150–$350 · lasts 11 yrs | 1 | $800 | $400 |
| Dryertypical repair $100–$350 · lasts 12 yrs | 1 | $750 | $375 |
The same 1 business also cover refrigerator (1), dishwasher (1), oven & range (1), freezer (1), which Speed Queen 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. 1 of them also list stove/oven/range repair.

Speed Queen repair in Illinois — common questions
How many Speed Queen repair pros are listed in Illinois?
1 business listed in Illinois names Speed Queen among the brands it services — 6% of the 18 businesses the directory holds for the state, and 11th of the 22 states with any, out of 28 such businesses nationwide. It works out of Chicago.
Do I need Speed Queen-authorised service in Illinois, or will any repair company do?
Speed Queen 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. The one listed here does not state 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 Speed Queen appliances do Illinois pros repair?
Speed Queen builds laundry and nothing else — washers and dryers, in home and commercial-grade lines. The one listed in Illinois covers washer, dryer. At the mid-range tier a comparable new washer averages $800, which puts the repair-or-replace line near $400.
Are Speed Queen 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 Speed Queen specifically, parts are usually sourced through retailers and commercial laundry distributors. Parts prices do not vary much by state — labor does, because it tracks local wages and drive time — so the one business listed here is 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 Speed Queen pros rate?
The single listed business carries a 4.8, against 4.6 across all 28 listed Speed Queen pros nationwide. The largest single review tally is 65 on Chicago Appliance Service Company in Chicago, out of 65 across the group. The one listed here states that it is licensed, and 1 shows a BBB accreditation — self-stated, so verify before booking.
Which Speed Queen pros are rated highest in Illinois?
Chicago Appliance Service Company in Chicago at 4.8 on 65 reviews. For Speed Queen the rating is only half the question — ask what the technician has actually opened on this platform before.
Which other brands does this Illinois business service?
It also names Admiral (1), Amana (1), Electrolux (1), Frigidaire (1), General Electric (1), Hotpoint (1). That matters when a single visit can cover two machines — a technician already at the door for a Speed Queen fault will usually look at another appliance for a fraction of a second call-out fee.
Is it worth repairing my Speed Queen 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 Speed Queen washer carries a repair-or-replace line near $400 once it is past 7 years old, and a dryer near $375 past 8 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 Speed Queen 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. Ask whether the shop services commercial laundry. Closely related platforms run in laundromats and apartment laundry rooms, and that experience transfers. 1 of the 1 listed in Illinois advertises 24/7 emergency callout if this cannot wait.
