What Lebanon Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Lebanon 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.
Kentucky has no license category for appliance repair as such; the Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction licenses trades such as HVAC (whose scope covers installing and repairing heating, burner and cooling systems), plumbing and electrical.

In Kentucky, you can check a license with the Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction License Search and Verification or report a problem to the Kentucky Attorney General, Office of Consumer Protection.
