I rent in Uptown. Can I book a stove repair myself?

You can, but check your lease first, since many Uptown leases make the landlord responsible for appliance repairs. If your property manager approves the visit, we can coordinate access with them and with you.

Why does one coil burner on my Uptown apartment stove only work when I jiggle it?

That usually means the burner's terminals or the receptacle it plugs into have burned or loosened. Running it that way can damage the wiring further, so stop using that burner. The technician replaces the receptacle and burner as needed after checking the switch.

Renters, Owners and Who Books the Repair

Many Uptown residents rent, and leases often put stove repairs in the hands of the landlord or property manager. If that applies to you, check before booking so the visit is approved and access is arranged. Condo owners and investors who own the appliance can schedule with us directly, and property managers can set up a visit to a vacant unit between tenants.

Common Stove Faults in Apartment Kitchens

Freestanding electric stoves in apartments see heavy use and frequent tenant turnover. Coil burners that spark or heat only when wiggled usually have a burned receptacle, while a smoothtop burner stuck on high points to a failed switch. An oven that heats unevenly often has a failing element. Every stove should also be secured with its anti-tip bracket, which sometimes goes missing after a move.

With the breaker off, you can check that coil burners are fully seated in their receptacles. Avoid lining the oven floor with foil, since it can damage the element and finish. Our technician tests the burners, switches and oven circuit, and quotes the price before the repair.

Before You Book: Stove Checks

Safe first steps for the most urgent stove problems, and when to leave it to a technician.

Gas Odor from StoveSafety: Leave the home without flipping any switches or lighting anything, and call the gas utility or 911 once you are outside.
Power Cord or Terminal Block IssueSafety: Don't open the terminal cover yourself; if you notice a burning smell or discoloration behind the stove, switch the breaker off and call us.
Burning Smell from Storage DrawerSafety: Turn the oven off, empty the drawer, and clean any debris once it's cool; if smoke continues, switch off the breaker.
Not Igniting: Confirm the cord is plugged in and the breaker is on; if you smell gas at any point, stop, leave the home and call the gas utility from outside.
