Clicking burners that never light. A coil element that stays cold. Glowing red on high with no way to simmer. Stovetop faults usually trace to an igniter, a spark module, an infinite switch, or a burnt terminal block. We service gas and electric ranges throughout Dorchester and the Ashmont area, and we clean up the wiring older installs leave behind. A burner that lights slow with a yellow flame needs attention now, not next month. Tell us which burner and what it does. Call us or start with the quote form.
Taking calls until 5:00 PM ET

From Dorchester we cover 02121, 02122 and 02125, plus Ashmont, Mattapan, Hyde Park and over into Brookline and West Roxbury.
Both, plus dual-fuel and induction. Gas work means igniters, valves, orifices and safety valves. Electric means elements, infinite switches and relay boards. Induction means coils and power modules. Tell us which you have when you call us.
Almost always a part, not the appliance. A drifting temperature sensor is the usual culprit, sometimes the control board or a cracked element. We test the sensor's resistance cold, so the diagnosis isn't guesswork.
Yes, and it's usually a small repair. On gas that points at one igniter or a blocked orifice. On electric it's often the element or its receptacle. Isolated failures are simpler than whole-range problems.
That's most of the homes we visit. Rowhouses and walk-ups don't leave much clearance. We protect the floor, walk the range out carefully, and check for a gas shutoff before anything moves.
Usually within a day or two, and often same week. Give us a window when someone over 18 can let us in. If you're in a triple-decker with shared entry or a landlord-held basement key, say so when you call us so we plan for access instead of losing the visit.
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.
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.
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.
Ask these of anyone you let into your home — us included. Call and we'll answer all five before you book anything.
Describe the fault, approve the written quote, get it fixed. Starting takes about a minute.
