Local Notes for Highland
Most washer calls in Highland 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.
Utah has no contractor classification for appliance repair, but under the Construction Trades Licensing Act anyone who installs, repairs or replaces a residential or commercial gas appliance must hold natural gas technician certification, even on jobs otherwise too small to need a contractor license.

In Utah, you can check a license with the Utah Licensee Lookup and Verification (Verify a License) or report a problem to the Utah Department of Commerce, Division of Consumer Protection.
