Gas and electric dryers share the same drum, belt, motor and vent, but the heat source is completely different, and so are the parts that fail. Companies below are sorted for dryer and gas appliance work first, then by distance from Bonham and public ratings.

Gas piping counts as plumbing in Texas and requires a plumbing license, with an exemption for LP gas installers who hold a separate state LP gas license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, §§1301.002, 1301.055 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
