What Parma Owners Should Know
Most washer calls in Parma 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.
Ohio has no state license for appliance repair; the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board licenses commercial contractors in plumbing, hydronics, refrigeration, HVAC and electrical, and residential contractor work is generally overseen locally.

In Ohio, you can check a license with the Ohio Department of Commerce OCILB Company Licensee Lookup or report a problem to the Ohio Attorney General, Consumer Protection Section.
Hiring a Washer Repair Company in Parma
- Do you work on front-load and top-load washers, or only one type?
- Is your company licensed where my state requires it, and insured?
- If the problem turns out to be the supply valves or the standpipe, do you handle that or should I call a plumber?
