What Baltimore Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Baltimore come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.
Maryland does not issue a separate appliance repair license; the Maryland Board of Plumbing licenses plumbers, natural gas fitters and propane gas fitters, whose trades cover gas connections. Source: License Requirements - Maryland Board of Plumbing (Maryland Department of Labor)
In Maryland, you can check a license with the Maryland Department of Labor occupational license search (Board of Plumbing) or report a problem to the Maryland Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
