Common Stove
Problems We Fix
If your stove is doing one of these, we've seen it thousands of times across Baltimore. Here's what's usually behind it.
Burner will not light
A gas burner that clicks but never catches is usually a dirty or wet igniter, a clogged burner port, or a worn spark module. We clean, test, and replace what's actually failing so the flame comes back.
Electric element not heating
A coil or radiant element that stays cold is often a burned-out element, a failed surface switch, or a bad receptacle block. We test each part and swap the one that quit, not the whole stove.
Stove not heating evenly
Food cooking faster on one side points to a weak element, a failing thermostat, or a control problem. We find why the heat is off and get an even, correct temperature back.
Burner stuck on high
A burner that only runs full blast or will not adjust is a worn infinite switch or a shorted control. We replace the switch so you get real low, medium, and high settings again.
Clicking that will not stop
Constant clicking after the burner lights, or clicking with no flame, is a wet igniter, a cracked spark electrode, or a misaligned burner cap. We dry it out, realign it, or replace the igniter.
Smells gas or sparks wrong
A gas odor or a burner that sparks erratically is one to take seriously. Shut the burner off and call us. We check the valve, the supply fitting, and the ignition so your stove is safe to use.

What A Stove Diagnosis
Actually Checks
A stove that won't light or heat can fail in several places. Here's the system a factory-certified tech works through to inspect and troubleshoot the real cause, not just the symptom, so the repair is prompt and done right the first time.
Igniters and spark module
On a gas stove, the spark igniters, the ignition module, and the wiring that lights each burner, the usual reason a burner clicks but never catches.
Burners and elements
Gas burner heads and caps, or electric coil and radiant elements, the parts that actually make heat and the first thing we test on a no-heat call.
Surface switches and controls
The infinite switches, knobs, and control board that set each burner’s temperature so high, medium, and low all work the way they should.
Gas valve and supply
The burner valves, the orifices, and the supply fitting on a gas stove, checked for safe, steady flow and a clean blue flame.
Thermostat and sensor
The temperature sensor and thermostat that keep a stove holding the right heat efficiently instead of running hot, cold, or uneven.
Wiring and receptacles
The element receptacle blocks, terminal connections, and harness behind a dead burner or an intermittent one, where a clean fix beats a guess.
60-second quiz Fix The Stove, Or Replace It?
Answer eight quick questions about your stove. We weigh the age, the problem, and the cost, then tell you straight whether a repair is worth your money.
Should You Repair Or
Replace Your Stove?
Most of the time, repair is the smarter spend. A standard stove or range lasts about 13 to 15 years, and a well-built gas model often longer because the burners are simple and durable. If yours is in that range and the fix runs less than half the price of a comparable new unit, repair almost always wins, and a high-end or built-in range is worth fixing nearly every time.
- Under 10 years old? Repair is usually the clear call.
- Built-in or high-end range? Fixing beats a four-figure replacement.
- Control board gone on a 15-year-old stove? We'll tell you straight when replacing makes more sense.

Baltimore Stove Repair,
Answered
How much does stove repair cost in Baltimore?
Stove repair starts at $100, which covers the visit and a full diagnosis from a skilled tech. On a quick fix, that's all you pay. If a part needs replacing, you get one flat repair price to approve before any work, usually $225 total for a standard same-visit repair and almost always far less than buying a new stove. Prices stay reasonable and clear, so most customers know their real total before we lift a tool. Special-order parts get an exact quote from our office first. The full breakdown is on our appliance repair cost page.
My gas stove will not ignite. Can you fix it?
Yes, a gas stove that won't ignite is one of our most common stove calls across Baltimore. A burner that clicks but never lights is usually a dirty or wet igniter, a clogged burner port, a cracked spark electrode, or a failing ignition module. A factory-certified tech diagnoses the real cause and you get a flat repair price to approve before any work begins.
My electric stove burner is not heating. What are the common causes?
An electric burner that stays cold is usually a burned-out coil or radiant element, a failed surface switch, or a bad receptacle block where the element plugs in. Sometimes it's the control board or the wiring behind it. We test each part in order so you replace only what actually quit, not the whole stove.
Why does my stove not heat evenly?
Uneven heat on a stove usually comes down to a weak or partly failed element, a thermostat that's drifted out of calibration, or a control switch that isn't sending steady power. On a gas stove it can be a clogged burner port throwing an uneven flame. We find the cause and get an even, correct temperature back rather than guessing at it.
Can I repair my stove myself or should I hire a professional?
Small things like cleaning a clogged gas burner port or reseating a burner cap are fine to try yourself. Anything involving the gas valve, the wiring, the spark module, or a 240-volt electric element is worth a professional. Gas and high-voltage repairs carry real safety risk, so a trained tech is the safer and usually faster call. We diagnose it right the first time and back the repair for 60 days.
What are common causes of stove igniter failure?
Stove igniters fail from moisture after a spill or a boil-over, from grease and food building up around the spark electrode, from a cracked ceramic electrode, or from a worn-out ignition module that no longer fires a strong spark. A burner cap knocked out of alignment will also stop a burner from lighting. We clean, realign, or replace the igniter depending on what we find.
Do you repair both gas and electric stoves?
Yes, we repair gas stoves, electric coil stoves, and glass-top radiant stoves, along with the ovens and ranges they're part of. A stove has the same core systems no matter the fuel, the igniters and valves on gas, the elements and switches on electric, so our techs are equipped for either.
Is it worth repairing my stove or should I replace it?
Most of the time, repair is the smarter spend, especially when the stove is under about 15 years old and the fix runs less than half the price of a comparable new unit. A high-end or built-in range is almost always worth fixing. We give you an honest assessment so you can decide without pressure, and our repair-or-replace quiz walks you through it in about a minute.
How long do stoves usually last?
A standard stove or range runs about 13 to 15 years, and a well-built gas model often longer since the burners are simple and durable. If yours is in that range and the repair is reasonable, fixing it usually beats replacing it. If it's much older and the control board or multiple elements have failed, we'll tell you straight when replacement makes more sense.
What stove brands do you repair?
Every major brand. A stove has the same core parts no matter the manufacturer, so brand is rarely the obstacle. We're factory certified for LG and GE, and we service everyday names like Whirlpool, Samsung, Maytag, KitchenAid, and Frigidaire, and we specialize in high-end and built-in brands like Viking, Wolf, and Thermador too.
Do you warranty your stove repairs?
Yes. Every repair carries a 60-day warranty on parts and labor. If the same problem comes back after we've fixed it, we make it right, no charge. Your satisfaction is the point, and the warranty is our guarantee behind the work. Our diagnostic guarantee is just as simple: if we find nothing wrong with your stove, you get your $100 back.
