FAQ
What to Know Before Buying a Laundromat in Southern Ontario
The three major operating costs are: utilities (water, gas, electricity — typically 30–40% of revenue), rent (15–25%), and labour for attendants (10–15%). Equipment maintenance is a variable cost that increases with machine age. We review utility bills and maintenance logs for 24 months as part of standard due diligence to ensure the numbers are accurate.
A well-run laundromat with modern card/app payment and remote monitoring systems can be managed in 5–10 hours per week. Weekly duties include collecting revenue, restocking supplies, basic maintenance checks, and reviewing reports. Most owners hire a part-time attendant for peak hours, freeing themselves for near-fully-passive oversight.
Aim for equipment no older than 8–12 years. Commercial washers and dryers (Speed Queen, Maytag Commercial, Dexter) typically last 15–20 years with proper maintenance. Equipment older than 12 years increases repair and capital replacement risk, and may be approaching end-of-life for heating elements and control boards. We have equipment appraised before any offer is finalized.
