What Carson City Owners Should Know
Washer calls in Carson City most often involve drain pumps and filters, lid or door locks, inlet valves and worn suspension parts.
Nevada has no license class for appliance repair as such; contracting work on gas piping, gas vents and water heaters falls under the State Contractors Board's C-1 plumbing and heating subclassifications. Source: Nevada Administrative Code Chapter 624 (NAC 624.190)
In Nevada, you can check a license with the Nevada State Contractors Board License Search or report a problem to the Nevada Attorney General, Bureau of Consumer Protection.
