Common symptoms

Burner won’t heat

One or more burners stay cold, heat inconsistently, or cycle on and off without reaching the set temperature.

Igniter keeps clicking

Gas cooktops may click continuously, fail to light, or light slowly because of ignition or moisture issues.

Cracked or damaged glass top

Visible damage to a smooth-top cooktop can affect performance and safety and should be checked before continued use.

Uneven cooking or weak power

If the cooktop heats slowly or unevenly, the issue may involve the element, switch, control, or power delivery.

Repair process

Step 1

Initial symptom check

We start by reviewing what the cooktop is doing, including which burners are affected and whether the unit is gas or electric.

Step 2

Safety and access inspection

The cooktop is inspected for signs of heat damage, broken elements, ignition problems, loose connections, or surface damage.

Step 3

Component diagnosis

We test likely failure points such as burners, igniters, controls, switches, and wiring to isolate the cause.

Step 4

Repair and function test

When repair is practical, the affected component is serviced or replaced and the cooktop is tested for proper operation.

Common Cooktop Problems We See

Built-in cooktops can develop burner failures, ignition trouble, uneven heat, damaged glass surfaces, or control issues. In many cases, the problem is isolated to a single part rather than the entire appliance.

Gas and Electric Cooktop Repair

Gas cooktops often need help with igniters, burners, or moisture-related clicking. Electric and smooth-top units more commonly show element failure, switch problems, or inconsistent heating.

When to Schedule Service

Call for service when burners stop heating, the igniter will not stop clicking, controls stop responding, or the glass surface is cracked or damaged. Prompt diagnosis can help prevent further issues.

Maintenance tips

Keep burner areas clean and dry to help prevent ignition issues.
Do not continue using a cooktop with a cracked glass surface until it is inspected.
Use cookware that matches the burner size to reduce stress on the cooktop surface.
If a burner behaves differently after a spill, turn the unit off and allow it to dry before testing again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you repair both gas and electric cooktops?

Yes. Cooktop repair can involve gas ignition components, electric burners, surface elements, controls, and related wiring depending on the unit type.

Can a cracked glass cooktop be repaired?

In many cases, a cracked glass top is a safety concern and may require replacement rather than a simple repair. The condition should be inspected before continued use.

Why does my gas cooktop keep clicking?

Continuous clicking is often related to moisture, a dirty burner area, a faulty igniter, or an ignition control issue. Diagnosis is needed to identify the cause.

Do you service built-in residential cooktops only?

This service page is focused on residential built-in cooktops, including common burner, ignition, glass top, and power regulation problems.
