A range is two appliances sharing one cabinet, and when it goes down you usually lose both at once. We handle range repair across Los Angeles and Ventura County — freestanding, slide-in and professional 36 and 48 inch units, gas, electric and dual-fuel. Same-day where the calendar allows, and we agree the price before anything comes apart.
We have spent more than thirty years on professional-grade cooking equipment for Southern California kitchens. Brass burners, cast grates, doors heavy enough to need two hands. A pro range sits closer to that world than to a builder-grade appliance. So when a 48 inch dual-fuel stops behaving, we send the same technicians who rebuild Delta Heat and Coyote equipment.
Why Ranges Are Their Own Problem:
The thing that makes a range convenient is also what makes it awkward to diagnose. One power feed, one gas line, one control panel, often one shared board. All of it drives a cooktop and an oven that fail for completely different reasons. Sometimes a dead range is two unrelated faults that surfaced the same week. Sometimes it is one supply problem pretending to be five. Working out which is the first thing worth paying for.
Dual-fuel units add a second layer. The burners run on gas, the oven on electric, and the two halves fail independently. Losing all four burners while the oven still bakes points somewhere very different than losing the oven while the top works perfectly. On slide-ins and pro ranges there is also the physical side that gets skipped — a unit sitting out of level cooks unevenly no matter how healthy its parts are, and a missing anti-tip bracket is a genuine safety problem we will not leave behind.
What Our Range Repair Covers:
- Whole range dead — no power, no spark, no display
- Oven side working while burners do not, or the reverse
- Dual-fuel units with one half of the appliance out
- Shared control boards and touch panels throwing error codes
- Professional 36 and 48 inch units, including griddle and grill plates
- Oven cavity that cooks unevenly because the unit sits out of level
- Doors that will not seal, sagging hinges, damaged racks and rails
- Missing or incorrectly fitted anti-tip brackets
- Gas supply, regulator and manifold faults feeding the whole unit
- Slide-in units needing removal and safe refitting to service
Professional And Dual-Fuel Ranges:
The big professional ranges last decades, and their makers expect you to open them up along the way. That is the whole argument for repairing one. Panels come off, burners rebuild, doors adjust, and manufacturers still supply the parts — so a fifteen-year-old pro range is usually a far better appliance after a proper service than a new mid-range unit would be. We work on Wolf, Viking, Thermador, BlueStar, Bertazzoni, Ilve, Dacor, Miele and Lynx, and we pull and refit slide-ins without damaging your cabinetry or countertop. Thermador publishes specifications for its professional range line if you want to check what yours is rated to do.
Only the baking side playing up? The shorter route is oven repair. Burners only? Go to stove repair. Not sure which? Call and describe it. Sorting that out on the phone costs nothing.
How A Range Repair Visit Actually Goes:
The technician starts by establishing whether he is looking at one fault or two, because that decides everything after it. He reads power at the outlet and gas at the manifold, then tests the two halves independently — lighting every burner and running it up, bringing the oven to temperature with a probe in the cavity. On a slide-in he levels the unit and checks the anti-tip bracket actually engages, which more often than not it does not. Then you get the diagnosis and the number, and you decide.
Common parts ride on the van, so single-fault jobs usually close on the first visit. Shared control boards on professional units sometimes have to come from the manufacturer, and you will hear that timeframe plainly. Before he leaves, he runs both halves together — burners lit while the oven holds temperature, because that load is what exposes a marginal gas supply — and walks you through what failed. Our warranty covers parts and labour both.

Range Repair Questions, Answered:
Half my range works and half does not. Is that one fault or two?
Usually one, and usually upstream — a supply, a board or a connector feeding that half. It is worth a proper diagnosis before assuming you need two repairs, because the split itself is the strongest clue about where to look.
Can you service a slide-in without wrecking my countertop?
Yes. Pulling and refitting slide-ins is routine for us, and protecting the surrounding cabinetry and stone is part of the job rather than an afterthought.
Is a fifteen-year-old professional range worth repairing?
Almost always. Manufacturers design these to come apart, they still supply the parts, and a properly rebuilt pro range will outcook and outlast most new appliances at the same money. If yours is genuinely past it, we will say so.
Ready To Get Your Range Back?
Losing a range takes out your whole kitchen at once, not one appliance. We can service most of what fails, most of the parts are on the van, and the answer is usually a good deal cheaper than the replacement quote you have been dreading.
Call Us To Make An Appointment:
When you call, tell us the brand, the width, and which half of the appliance is misbehaving — burners, oven, or both. On a professional or dual-fuel unit the width and fuel type matter more than people expect, because the boards and burner assemblies differ between them, and knowing it up front is often what turns a two-visit job into a one-visit one.
We schedule same-day where the calendar allows, we work Monday through Friday, and we cover Los Angeles and Ventura County. You get a real arrival window and a quote you approve before the first panel comes off.
