Repair is more cost effective if done correctly. (You have to judge how much trust you have in the technician.) There are other possible causes. Take a look at https://www.repairclinic.com/RepairHelp/How-To-Fix-A-Dryer/8-129--V1RWNzYxMDBVUyA=/Bosch-Dryer-not-heating. Cause 3 points to your thermostat. Links on this page will tell you the cost of the needed part in each case.
