Washers and dryers are usually bought as a pair and often wear out on a similar schedule, so it helps to call a company that works on both. Companies that mention laundry work come first, then other appliance repair companies near Eagle Pass, with distances and public ratings.

Around Eagle Pass

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.

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.
