Stove and cooktop repair for burners that light and hold heat
Whether you cook on gas, electric coil, smooth-top radiant or induction, a cooktop fault is usually electrical or ignition-related — and our factory-trained technicians diagnose it precisely rather than guessing. From a single burner that won't light to a control board that has failed across the whole unit, we repair to manufacturer spec with genuine parts.
The cooktop problems we fix most
On gas cooktops, a burner that clicks but won't light is usually a dirty or cracked igniter or a misaligned burner cap, while a burner that lights but won't hold flame points to the valve or a weak igniter. On electric smooth-tops, a dead element traces to the element itself, the infinite switch that controls it, or the control board. Induction cooktops are their own world — error codes there usually mean a cooling-fan, sensor or power-board fault that needs someone who knows the platform.
- Gas burner clicks but won't light
- Burner won't hold a flame, or heats unevenly
- Electric element dead or stuck on high
- Induction error codes or a zone that won't power
- Control-board or touch-control failures
Gas, electric and induction — every brand
We repair Samsung, LG, GE, Whirlpool, Frigidaire, KitchenAid, Bosch and more, across gas, electric coil, radiant smooth-top and induction. Induction and smart cooktops in particular reward board-level diagnosis, and we fit genuine OEM igniters, elements, switches and boards so the repair lasts and stays safe.
Repair or replace? Our honest view
Individual burner, igniter, element and switch repairs are almost always worth it — they are inexpensive relative to a new cooktop. The judgment call comes on induction units with a failed power board, where the part cost is higher; we'll give you the honest comparison before you decide.
What to expect when we come out
We diagnose the fault, provide a written quote first, and repair with genuine OEM parts — and because cooktops involve gas and high-current circuits, we test for safe operation before we leave. Every cooktop repair is backed by our 6-month parts-and-labor warranty.
Common problems we fix
- Gas burner will not ignite
- Clicking that will not stop
- Electric coil / element not heating
- Induction zone not detecting pan
- Uneven or weak flame
- Surface controls unresponsive
Frequently asked questions
My gas burner keeps clicking even after it lights. How do I stop it?
Continuous clicking is usually moisture or food debris under the burner cap, a misaligned cap, or a failing igniter switch. We clean, realign and test the ignition, replacing the switch or module only if needed.
My induction cooktop says no pan is detected. Is it broken?
Not necessarily — but if you are using induction-compatible cookware and it still will not detect, it points to a coil sensor or control-board fault. We diagnose the zone electronics directly.
One electric burner will not heat but the others work. Why?
That is typically an open element or a failed infinite switch for that specific burner, or a burned receptacle block on plug-in coil ranges. It is usually an inexpensive, single-visit repair.
One gas burner won't light but the others do — fixable?
Almost always, and usually inexpensively. A single burner that clicks but won't light is typically a dirty or cracked igniter or a misaligned burner cap. We clean or replace the igniter and check the valve.
Do you repair induction cooktops?
Yes. Induction faults are usually a cooling-fan, sensor or power-board issue that shows as an error code. We diagnose them at the board level rather than defaulting to a full replacement.
