A burner that clicks and never lights. Flames that lift yellow instead of blue. An electric coil that stays cold while the others glow. Smells of gas near the range mean shut the valve and step outside first. After that, symptoms help us sort igniters, switches, and wiring. We repair ranges and cooktops for Theodore homes. Describe what happens when you turn the knob — call us.
Taking calls until 5:00 PM CT

We take calls across Theodore in 36582 and 36590, plus 36541, 36509, 36523, 36544, 36568 and 36604, and out to Tillmans Corner, Bayou La Batre, Grand Bay and Mobile.
We measure current draw while the igniter glows. A weak igniter glows but never pulls enough amps to open the valve, so no gas arrives. That reading separates the two parts instead of guessing and replacing both.
Usually, yes. Many ranges allow a calibration offset through the control panel. If the drift is larger or wanders, we test the oven sensor's resistance cold and hot, since a drifting sensor feeds bad numbers to the board.
All three. Gas work involves igniters, valves, and burner assemblies. Electric means elements and infinite switches. Induction leans on coils, inverter boards, and cooling fans. We diagnose each one differently, since the failure families barely overlap.
Depends on the symptom. A dead electric coil is inconvenient, not dangerous. Clicking igniters, a gas smell, or a burner that lights late means unburned gas is collecting. Shut it off and call us instead of working around it.
Yes. A single washer or oven visit is fine. Tell us the symptom on the phone so we bring likely parts on the truck.
Tell us what you hear, smell, or see. Grinding? Puddle? Blinking code? Small details narrow the list of likely causes before we ever pull the machine away from the wall.
A technician runs through a checklist: power, controls, sensors, motors, seals, drainage. We test instead of guessing, then walk you through the actual fault and your repair options.
Some faults are worth fixing today. Others mean the appliance is near the end. We tell you which is which, then complete the repair once you say go.
Ask these of anyone you let into your home — us included. Call and we'll answer all five before you book anything.
