Dryers are simpler than most appliances, which is good news: the usual failures are wear parts that a technician can often replace in one visit. We pull these listings from public business data, remove closed businesses and unrelated trades, and put companies that list laundry appliance work at the top.

Why Dryers Break Down
Inside a Dryer Repair Visit
Check the Vent Before You Call
Clothes that are still damp after a normal cycle, longer-than-usual drying times, or little exhaust air coming out of the outside vent while the dryer runs can all point to a blocked lint screen or exhaust duct. Source: U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission - Overheated Clothes Dryers Can Cause Fires
Under the model residential code approach, a 4-inch dryer exhaust duct is limited to 35 feet of equivalent length, minus 2.5 feet for each 45-degree bend and 5 feet for each 90-degree bend, unless the dryer manufacturer's installation instructions set a different maximum.
