One burner on our Fort Mill gas stove has a yellow flame. Should I keep using it?

A lazy yellow flame often means the burner cap is not seated, the ports are partly blocked or the air mix is off. Turn it off, let it cool, then clean and reseat the cap. If the flame stays yellow or leaves soot on pans, stop using that burner and book a visit.

Can you repair an older stove that came with a resale home in Tega Cay?

Yes. Older stoves are often simpler to fix, with switches and igniters that are straightforward to replace. We check parts availability for the model and tell you honestly whether the repair is worth it compared with a new unit.

Burner problems on everyday stoves

Plenty of Fort Mill households call the freestanding cooking appliance a stove, and the complaints that bring us out are usually on top: a gas burner that clicks but will not catch, a flame that burns yellow or lifts off the ports, or an electric element that heats only on high. Each traces to a small number of parts, and many are fixable on the same visit when the part is on hand.

For gas, pull the grate and cap, clear the ports with a straight pin and let everything dry fully, since boil-overs are a frequent reason a burner will not light. For a coil-top electric, turn the stove off, let the coil cool and reseat it firmly in its receptacle. A scorched or loose receptacle needs replacing, and that is better done by a technician than patched.

Gas safety and the visit itself

If a gas smell does not clear after a burner is turned off, leave the home and call the gas utility or 911 from outside. We do not work on gas supply lines, but we do test igniters, spark modules, valves, infinite switches and wiring inside the stove. The technician explains the fault, prices the repair before starting and backs it with our 90-day parts and 30-day labor warranty.

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.
