What Wausau Owners Should Know
Most washer calls in Wausau 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.
Wisconsin has no separate appliance repair license; plumbing licensing covers appliances connected to water supply systems, including water heaters, but exempts minor repairs to appliances and repair or replacement of gas or electrical control valves and devices.

In Wisconsin, you can check a license with the Wisconsin DSPS LicensE credential lookup or report a problem to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Bureau of Consumer Protection.
Questions to Ask a Wausau Washer Technician
- Will you check the drain pump filter and drain hose before replacing the pump?
- 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?
