Gas, electric, and induction cooktops each fail in their own distinct way, which is why an accurate diagnosis matters more here than on almost any other appliance. Here's what we see most often on service calls in East Brunswick, broken down by cooktop type:
Gas Burner Won't Light
A clogged burner port, a faulty spark igniter, or a defective spark module are the most common causes on gas cooktops.
Electric Element Won't Heat
A burned-out heating element, a faulty infinite switch, or a broken element receptacle are common causes on electric coil and glass-top units.
Induction Won't Detect Cookware
If compatible cookware still isn't detected after checking with a magnet, the induction coil or sensor may need service.

Cracked Glass Surface
A cracked glass-ceramic surface is a safety hazard, since moisture and spills can reach the electrical components underneath.
Cooktop Won't Turn On
A tripped breaker, a blown thermal fuse, or a control board failure are the usual reasons a cooktop has no power at all.
Buzzing or Clicking Sounds
A light hum on induction units is normal, but loud buzzing or a burner that keeps clicking without lighting should be checked out.

What Does Cooktop Repair Cost?
Gas cooktops tend to be the least expensive to repair, since they have fewer electronic parts — a burner cap, igniter, or valve replacement usually costs the least. Electric coil and switch repairs fall in the middle.
Glass-ceramic surface replacement and induction coil or control board repairs are typically the most expensive, since parts and labor are more specialized. If a repair starts approaching what a comparable new cooktop would cost, we'll tell you honestly rather than recommend a repair that isn't worth it. We diagnose the issue in person first and give you a flat-rate price before starting any work.

Quick answers to the questions we hear most about cooktop repair.
How fast can you get to my house?
Most calls placed earlier in the day can be scheduled for a same-day visit. If you smell gas or have a cracked glass surface, let us know it's an emergency so we can prioritize your appointment.
Is it safe to use a cooktop with a cracked glass surface?
No. A cracked glass-ceramic surface can expose electrical components to moisture and spills, so it's best to stop using that burner until it's repaired.
Why won't my induction cooktop detect my pan?
Induction cooktops need magnetic cookware. Test with a cast iron pan first — if that works, the issue is your cookware, not the cooktop.
Do you repair gas, electric, and induction cooktops?
Yes. Our technicians are trained on all three cooktop types from every major brand.
Is it worth repairing my cooktop or should I replace it?
If the repair cost is less than half the price of a new cooktop, repair is usually the better value. Induction units in particular are worth repairing while under about 8 years old.
