Most dryer calls in Brookings 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.
Oregon has no license issued specifically for appliance repair that we could confirm, but anyone installing or servicing liquefied petroleum (LP) gas appliances needs an LP gas fitter license from the Oregon State Fire Marshal. Source: Liquefied Petroleum Gas licensing (Oregon State Fire Marshal)
In Oregon, you can check a license with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board Contractor/License Search or report a problem to the Oregon Department of Justice, Consumer Protection.
