What Sauk Rapids Owners Should Know
Washer calls in Sauk Rapids most often involve drain pumps and filters, lid or door locks, inlet valves and worn suspension parts.
Minnesota has no state license for mechanical contractors or their workers; businesses contracting for gas, heating, cooling or refrigeration work file a mechanical contractor bond with the Department of Labor and Industry, and some cities require their own licenses or competency cards.

In Minnesota, you can check a license with the DLI License and Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, Consumer Assistance.
