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 the Vent Matters

What Seabrook Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Seabrook 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.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, ยง1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
