What Richmond Owners Should Know
Most washer calls in Richmond come down to the same handful of parts: the drain pump and filter, the lid switch or door lock, the drive belt or coupler, the inlet valve and the suspension.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, ยง1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
Before You Book in Richmond
- Do you work on front-load and top-load washers, or only one type?
- If the problem turns out to be the supply valves or the standpipe, do you handle that or should I call a plumber?
- Will you check the drain pump filter and drain hose before replacing the pump?
