Range/Stove Repair in Colorado Springs

A range puts the burners and the oven on one set of controls and one gas line or power cord, so a single failed part can make the whole appliance look dead. We repair every common layout — freestanding, slide-in and front-control — whether it burns gas, runs on electricity or combines both, in homes across Colorado Springs, in Monument and around Fort Carson.

On top

• A gas burner won’t light, or keeps clicking once it’s lit. Moisture or a spill on the burner, a cracked igniter, or the switch behind the knob that fires the igniter.
• A coil or radiant zone stays cold or stuck on high. The element, a burned terminal or the infinite switch.
• The glass top cracked. We replace it; until then, don’t use the cooktop.

Below

The oven half of a range breaks the same way a wall oven does — an element or a gas igniter, the oven sensor, the self-clean lock. Read more about those faults, and about telling an oven problem from an altitude problem, on the oven repair page. Two oven cavities? That’s double oven repair.

After a move

With Fort Carson, Peterson Space Force Base and the Air Force Academy nearby, plenty of ranges here change houses. Things to check when yours does:

• The cord. Older homes often have 3-prong range outlets, newer ones 4-prong. The cord must match the outlet and be wired to the terminal block correctly, including the ground strap.
• The gas connector. Put in a new flexible connector instead of reusing the old one, and have the connection leak-tested. A range coming from a home on propane needs to be converted to natural gas, and the other way round.
• The anti-tip bracket. It’s screwed to the floor or the wall of the old house and usually stays there. If the range rocks forward when you press on the open oven door, it isn’t anchored — a real danger with small children around. Our technician checks the bracket during the visit.

If you smell gas

Shut the burners off if you can do it right away, leave the light switches and the igniter alone, get everyone outside and call your gas utility — Colorado Springs Utilities inside the city — or 911. Every gas connection we work on is leak-tested before we leave.
