Dryer Notes for Arden Hills, MN
Most dryer calls in Arden Hills 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.
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.
