Cooktop Repair — Book a Visit Today

Cooktops fail in small ways first. A burner that clicks and clicks before it lights. A glass surface that heats one ring and ignores the other. Induction that beeps and quits mid-boil. Behind those symptoms sit igniters, spark modules, surface elements, infinite switches, control boards, and burnt wire connections in the junction box under the counter. Our visit starts with the symptom you describe, then power and continuity testing, then the part itself. On gas we check gas flow and orifices. On electric and induction we check elements, switches, and control response. Many cooktops sit in tight galley kitchens and old counters, so we work carefully around stone and tile. Call us and tell us what the burners are doing.

Cooktop Repair — residential cooktop being serviced

The cooktop symptoms we hear most

  • It clicks forever but won't light Igniter or spark module failure, wet burner cap, or clogged port
  • One burner is dead, the rest work Open surface element, failed infinite switch, or burnt terminal block
  • The flame is orange and lifting off Air-to-gas mixture, wrong orifice for the fuel type, or debris in the burner
  • Touch controls won't respond to my finger Cracked control glass, failed touch board, or moisture under the panel
  • Burner heats full blast no matter the setting Shorted infinite switch or a stuck relay on the control board

Safe things to check first

Worth a look before you call — sometimes it saves you the visit.

  • 1Confirm the breaker for the cooktop hasn't tripped at the panel.
  • 2Pull off burner caps and grates, let them dry fully, and make sure ports aren't crusted with spillover.
  • 3Wipe touch controls dry with a cloth, since a film of water reads as a stuck finger.
  • 4On gas, check that other gas appliances in the house are working so you know the supply is on.

Cooktop Repair — quick answers

Is a cracked glass cooktop worth repairing?

Sometimes. A chip at the edge may be cosmetic. A crack through the surface exposes live elements and moisture gets in, so that top needs replacing. We look at the crack location and the model, then tell you straight what makes sense.

Why does my gas burner keep clicking after it lights?

Usually a spark module that isn't getting the shut-off signal, or moisture bridging the igniter. Spills that run into the switch cause it too. It's worth turning the burner off and calling, since continuous sparking wears the module out.

Can you repair induction cooktops?

Yes. Induction failures are typically the power board, a cooling fan that's stopped and triggered thermal shutdown, or a coil connection. We test the board and fan before deciding. Some induction units are sealed enough that replacement is the honest answer.

My cooktop is built into stone counter. Can it come out?

It can. Most drop-in cooktops are held by clips underneath and sealed with silicone. We cut the seal, lift from below the counter, and re-seal on the way back. Careful work matters more than speed with granite and quartz.

Do you work on older cooktops?

Often, yes. Old housing stock around here means plenty of cooktops from decades back. Switches, elements, and igniters are frequently still available. Control boards for discontinued models are the sticking point. We check part availability before you commit to anything.

What should I have ready when I call?

The brand, and the model number if you can reach it. It's usually on a label under the cooktop or in the paperwork. Also tell us gas or electric and which burners misbehave. That shortens the visit considerably.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Tell us the symptom

    Call us or fill out the form. Describe what you hear, smell or see. Brand and rough age help. We ask a few questions so the tech arrives with likely parts on the truck.

  2. Step 2

    We come look

    Pick a window that works. Our tech tests the machine, checks power, water and drainage, then explains what failed in plain words. No jargon, no guessing out loud at your kitchen table.

  3. Step 3

    Repair or straight answer

    Most jobs finish the same visit. If a part must be ordered, we tell you what and why. If the unit isn't worth fixing, we say that too, and you decide.
