Gas and electric stove, range, and cooktop repair in San Francisco
A burner that won’t light, an element that stays cold, or a range oven that loses heat puts dinner on hold. We repair freestanding and slide-in ranges, cooktops and dual-fuel ranges in San Francisco homes, condos and rentals, plus the Peninsula.
Our base is 140 San Pedro Rd, Daly City, CA 94014, but we only do house calls. Call (415) 585-5900 or text us, or email service@bayappliancerepair.com. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Licensed under California BEAR #46247.
What are the most common stove and cooktop problems?
- Gas burners that click without lighting or light unevenly
- Electric coil or smooth-top elements that will not heat
- Weak simmer, stuck knobs, or failed infinite switches
- Igniters that glow but never open the gas valve on a range oven
- Error codes on electronic control ranges after a power blip
- Glass cooktop damage assessment paired with element or control repair when safe
Kitchens in the Mission, Sunset, Richmond, Noe Valley and SoMa are often short on space and ventilation. When you book, tell us gas or electric, how tight the cabinets are and where the gas shutoff is, so the tech brings the right parts.
How a typical repair visit works
We note the brand and model, test ignition, elements, sensors and controls at your place, and go over repair or replace before ordering expensive parts. Qualifying repairs come with a 90-day parts and labor warranty. Same-day service available, Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Older San Francisco buildings can have stuck shutoff valves behind the range, odd cooktop cutouts and very little room around slide-ins. Mention any of that when you call so the visit doesn’t stall.

Cooktop and range service across San Francisco, the Peninsula, East Bay, and South Bay
Burners that won’t light, cooktops that spark with no flame and elements that stay cold are calls we take all over the San Francisco Bay Area, from Mission and Sunset kitchens to Daly City condos, the Peninsula, the East Bay and the South Bay.
What happens on a stove or cooktop repair visit?
We check whether it’s gas, electric or induction, test the ignition or element circuit, and look at the burner caps and electrodes on sealed gas burners. You hear the options before we order parts. Gas valves and orifices are for a technician only. Electric cooktops run on high-amp circuits, so don’t open the panel yourself. Appointments run Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm.
Prep: wipe spills so we can see electrodes and caps, note which burners fail, and tell us gas vs electric or induction. Do not drill into gas lines, enlarge orifices, or bypass igniter safety.

Repair vs replace and trust signals
Many cooktops and ranges are worth fixing if the glass or top is intact and the frame is sound. Replace it if the glass is cracked across burners, the gas manifold is damaged, or the controls keep failing. We operate under California BEAR #46247, Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, out of Daly City. No hidden fees.
Gas, electric, and induction cooktops in San Francisco Bay Area kitchens
On sealed gas burners, spills bridge the spark electrode and you get the classic clicks-but-won’t-light call. Our gas stove guide covers it. Electric coil and radiant tops in Daly City and East Bay rentals lose elements and limiters. A cracked glass top usually means a new cooktop, not a small part. Induction zones that cut out under a pan need different checks than gas. On a freestanding range, tell us if the burners or the oven matter more so we bring the right parts. Thermador, Viking, Monogram and Wolf get the same diagnosis, with parts for that brand.

Common questions
Can an electrician fix a stove?
An electrician can fix the outlet, wiring or breaker that powers an electric stove, but usually not the stove itself. Failed surface elements, infinite switches, igniters, sensors and control boards are appliance repairs. If the stove is completely dead, check the breaker first. If power reaches the outlet, an appliance technician should diagnose the stove.
Do plumbers fix gas stoves?
A licensed plumber or gas fitter handles the gas supply line and shut-off valve, but problems inside the stove, such as an igniter that clicks without lighting, weak burners or a faulty oven valve, are appliance repairs, which we handle for gas and electric stoves. Smell gas? Leave and call your gas utility or 911 from outside.
What are the two most common problems that may occur in an electric stove?
Two of the most common electric stove problems are a surface element that won't heat and an element that stays on high. The usual causes are a burned-out element, a loose or burned terminal, or a failed infinite switch (the control behind the knob). Turn off the breaker before inspecting or unplugging any element.
How much does stove or cooktop repair cost?
The service call is $219, and it's free if you go with the repair. After the diagnosis you get the exact price before any work starts, with no hidden fees. Our $25 coupons and the senior discount apply to the repair only, not the service call.
Can you do same-day stove repair?
Same-day service is often available. We work Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, and we're closed on weekends. Arrival windows are 8–12 or 12–5, we can shorten the window on request, and the technician calls or texts when on the way.
Do you repair gas, electric and induction cooktops?
Yes. We diagnose and repair gas, electric and induction cooktops, plus freestanding and slide-in ranges. Qualifying repairs come with 90 days on parts and labor.
