Most washer repairs run $150–$400 nationally, with an average around $180–$250 for common issues like hoses, switches, or sensors. Motor, agitator, or control-board repairs run higher, typically $350–$550 or more, because of the parts and labor involved. Your local technician will diagnose in person and give you a flat price before starting any work — actual pricing varies by city and by what's actually wrong.
Usually, yes — most repairs cost a few hundred dollars against $600–$1,200 or more for a new washer.

Your technician will tell you honestly which situation you're in rather than pushing a repair either way.

Most washers last 10–14 years with reasonable care, though it varies by brand, usage, and how the unit's been maintained. Regular use and prompt repairs when something's off both help a unit hit the higher end of that range, wherever you're located.
Appliance repair labor typically runs $50–$150 per hour depending on the job and the local market, with a diagnostic fee in the $75–$130 range. Your local technician quotes a flat price for the repair itself rather than billing hourly, so you know the total cost before work starts.
