If You Smell Gas
A dryer exhaust system carries combustion gases including carbon monoxide out of the home, so HUD rates a detached, missing or blocked dryer exhaust as a life-threatening deficiency; a CO alarm in the laundry area is recommended with gas dryers.

If you smell gas strongly or are unsure, leave the building and call the gas company or 911 once you are outside; do not use light switches, appliance controls, phones near the odor, or anything that could spark.

Most dryer calls in Ontario 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.
At the state level, the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board licenses commercial plumbing, hydronics and HVAC contractors; for residential work the state board may lack authority, and local building departments handle code compliance and any local contractor licensing.
