A burner that clicks and clicks without lighting is a common call, and often a simple one. Spilled food fouls the igniter, or the burner cap sits crooked. Sometimes the spark module fails and every burner clicks at once. Electric coils and glass tops bring their own faults: a dead element, a burnt receptacle, or an infinite switch stuck on high. Older San Mateo homes mix gas ranges with newer induction, and we work on both. Independent service, all major brands. Call us or send the quote form with your model number.

We cover 94401, 94402, 94403, and 94404, plus Burlingame, Foster City, Belmont, and San Carlos.
Modern gas ranges need electricity for ignition and controls. After an outage, the board can lock up. Unplug the range for five minutes, then plug it back in. If burners still won't spark or the oven stays dark, the board or igniter module needs testing.
A brief whiff right at ignition can happen. A smell that lingers, or one you notice when nothing is on, is not normal. Shut the gas valve, open windows, leave, and call your gas utility first. Then call us for the repair.
The glass itself is replaced, not patched. Cracks let moisture reach the elements and wiring underneath, which causes shorts and nuisance shutoffs. We check whether the elements and limiters survived, since those often need attention at the same time.
On electric ranges, a weakening bake element or one failed leg of power slows heating badly. On gas, a tired igniter draws current but never reaches the temperature that opens the gas valve. Both are testable in one visit.
Most calls are booked same week, and often sooner when we already have a van on the Peninsula. We give you an arrival window and text before we head over, so you are not stuck waiting all day. Call us with the brand and what the appliance is doing.
Call us or fill out the form. Describe what you hear, smell or see. Odd noise, standing water, no heat. Have the model number handy if you can reach it.
Pick a window that fits your day. We confirm the address and ask a few questions first, so the van carries parts that commonly fail on your machine.
Our technician tests the machine, explains what failed, and lays out the repair options. Many jobs finish the same visit. Special-order parts get scheduled before we leave.
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.
