FAQS
Cooktop Repair Questions
Can you repair my cooktop if it's still under warranty?
Yes. We can repair cooktops still under manufacturer’s warranty. For the repair to be covered under warranty, contact the manufacturer directly and request a work order confirming warranty coverage and authorisation. Once we receive the valid work order, we’ll proceed with the warranty repair.
If you prefer to proceed without a manufacturer’s work order, we’re happy to repair your cooktop on a chargeable basis. Either way, our repairs won’t void your manufacturer’s warranty when carried out to manufacturer repair standards.
How much does a cooktop repair typically cost?
Cooktop repair costs vary depending on the specific issue. Burner element replacements and igniter repairs typically run lower, while control panel replacements or induction system repairs can be more substantial. The best way to get an accurate quote is to call us on 1300-434-380 for a free phone consultation. We’ll discuss your issue and provide ballpark costs before scheduling your appointment.
Can you fix my cooktop today?
We aim to complete most cooktop repairs same-day when parts are in stock, especially for common issues like igniter replacement or element repair. Call us immediately on 1300-434-380 and we’ll assess whether same-day repair is possible for your specific issue. For urgent situations, we prioritise next-day appointments.
Is my cooktop safe to use with a broken burner?
Safety depends on the specific issue. If a gas burner won’t light, it’s generally safe to use other burners, though we recommend getting it fixed promptly. If there are signs of gas leaks or electrical issues, do not use the cooktop and call us immediately for urgent service. Our technicians will assess safety during inspection.
Why does my cooktop need a professional? Can't I fix it myself?
Gas cooktops involve flammable fuel lines and safety valves—attempting DIY repairs risks gas leaks, burns, and explosions. Electric and induction cooktops involve high-voltage electrical systems with serious shock hazards. Professional repair ensures your safety, maintains warranty coverage, and restores proper operation. Our technicians are trained on all cooktop types and carry genuine parts.
How long does a typical cooktop repair take?
Most cooktop repairs take 1-2 hours if parts are in stock. Simple repairs like igniter replacement or element swap may be faster. Complex repairs involving control panels or gas lines can take longer. We’ll provide a time estimate during your assessment.
Can you install a new cooktop if mine can't be repaired?
Yes. If replacement is the best option, we supply, install, and remove your old cooktop, so you get a seamless, hassle-free experience. We can discuss cooktop options and pricing during your service call.
