Around Fishers
Most dryer calls in Fishers 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.

In Indiana, you can check a license with the Indiana Professional Licensing Agency License Verification or report a problem to the Indiana Attorney General Consumer Protection Division.
