Around Norfolk
Most dryer calls in Norfolk come down to the same handful of parts: the vent and lint path, the heat source, the belt and rollers, and the door and start switches.
Nebraska does not license appliance repair technicians at the state level; contractors working on other people's property register with the Department of Labor, and trade licenses such as plumbing are handled by cities and villages. Source: Nebraska Department of Labor: Who Needs to Register
Nebraska has no state agency licensing plumbers; plumbing licensing, including gas fitter licenses in cities such as Lincoln, is set locally by city or village plumbing boards. Source: Nebraska Legislature: report on regulation of Master Plumbers (Legislative Council)
