Portland homes, up close
The city's main wastewater plant turns biogas into renewable natural gas for NW Natural's pipeline. Long, wet winters keep crawl spaces damp, and moss is a common roof problem.
Electricians and plumbers also need an Oregon trade license. Laundry in a basement or closet is common here. Make sure the tech can reach the machine and that there is room to pull it out.
Front-load washers in humid climates need their doors left open between loads to avoid mold. Summer heat waves have become more common, and many older homes lack air conditioning.
Local rules before you book
Appliance repair itself is not a state-licensed trade in Oregon, but plumbing and electrical hookups fall under licensed trades. For gas ranges and dryers, the tech should check for leaks after any work. If you ever smell gas, leave and call NW Natural from outside.

Questions from Portland residents
The ice maker stopped. Can that be fixed?
Usually. A kinked supply line, a frozen fill tube, a clogged water filter or a failed valve are common culprits. Make sure the ice maker arm is down and the water to the fridge is turned on before you call.
How long do most appliances last?
It varies by brand and use, but many fridges, washers and ranges run 10 to 15 years, and dishwashers often a little less. Age helps decide whether a repair makes sense.
Which parts of Portland can you help with?
Our network reaches Hawthorne, Alberta, St. Johns and Laurelhurst and the rest of Portland (97201, 97202, 97203, 97204, 97205 and others). Whether a pro can come depends on their schedule, and we will let you know quickly either way.
My range burner will not light but clicks. What is going on?
Food or moisture on the burner cap and igniter is a frequent cause. Let it dry and clean it gently. If it keeps clicking or never catches, have a tech look, and stop using it if you smell gas.
If you are not sure which trade fits your problem, call anyway and describe it. We will tell you if it sounds like a job for someone else.
