Repair Pensacola, FL

850 ApplianceCare provides in home stove and range repair across Pensacola and nearby areas.

Same day options are sometimes available when scheduling and parts allow.
We repair stoves and ranges (oven + cooktop combos). For standalone cooktops, see our cooktop repair page.
Note: We do not repair refrigerators or dishwashers. We focus on stoves/ranges, ovens, cooktops, washers, dryers, and standalone freezers.
When your stove or range
stops cooperating in Pensacola
Look, we get it. A single burner that quits can wreck your weeknight routine. You start rotating pans like a game. Breakfast turns into takeout. And if it is a gas range, the worry is not just dinner. It is safety.
In our experience, most stove and range problems start small. A burner takes longer to ignite. A knob feels loose. A smooth top zone heats unevenly. Then one day it refuses to work at all. That is usually when people call, and honestly, we would rather you call earlier.
Pensacola adds its own twist. Humid air, salty coastal breezes in places like Gulf Breeze and Perdido Key, and storm season power flickers can all show up as ignition issues, corrosion on contacts, and random control glitches.
Stove vs range and what we repair
A stove is the cooktop surface where you use burners. A range is the full unit with a cooktop on top and an oven below. People use the terms interchangeably, so we do not overthink it on the phone. We just ask what you have and what it is doing.
We work on common household gas and electric ranges, including freestanding and slide in models. We also service many glass top electric surfaces.

Common stove and range problems
we fix every week
Gas burner will not light
“You hear clicking, but no flame appears. Or the burner lights only when you use a lighter.”
Most of the time, the issue is the igniter, the burner cap alignment, or clogged burner ports after a boil over.
What we do:
We check the igniter spark position, clean and realign the burner head, verify gas flow, and confirm the burner lights quickly and consistently.
Gas stove keeps clicking
Constant clicking usually means the igniter is sensing moisture or debris. After cleaning, water can sit near the igniter and keep it firing. A misaligned cap can do the same thing.
Try this first:
Dry the burner area fully and reseat the cap. If it still clicks, it is time for a proper check.
Weak flame or yellow flame
A healthy gas flame is mostly blue. A weak or yellow flame can point to blocked ports or poor air/gas mix.
What we do: We inspect and clean ports, check burner head fit, and confirm stable flame. If we see signs of unsafe combustion, we recommend stopping use.
Electric burner not heating
For coil stoves, a dead burner can be the element, the receptacle, or the switch. For glass top ranges, it may be a radiant element, limiter, or control.
What we do: We test continuity, verify voltage, and pinpoint whether the element or the control side failed.
Burner stuck on high
A burner that will not turn down can scorch food and overheat cookware.
This often points to a failing infinite switch, a sensor issue on some glass top designs, or a control problem. We test the switch and related wiring to confirm correct response.
Control panel or display issues
If the display is dead, buttons do not respond, or you see recurring error codes, the issue can be power supply, a thermal safety device, wiring, or the control board. Storm related outages can trigger these problems.
What we do:
We verify power at the outlet and inside the unit, check for loose connectors, and test components that protect the control system.
Range trips the breaker
If your electric range trips the breaker when you use multiple burners, do not ignore it. It can be an internal short, damaged wiring, or a home circuit issue. We inspect the range for obvious shorts and recommend next steps.
“Sometimes an electrician needs to check the circuit too.”
Gas odor or delayed ignition
If you smell gas, stop and ventilate the area. Do not keep trying to light the burner. Delayed ignition can let gas build briefly before it lights.
What we do: We prioritize safety checks, confirm proper ignition timing, and look for causes like weak ignition or blocked ports.
Oven inside the range failing?
Many range calls include an oven complaint too. If bake or broil will not heat, or baking turns uneven, the cause may be an element, igniter, sensor, or control.

affecting stoves and ranges
Humidity, steam, and spills
Between cooking steam and humid air, moisture gets everywhere. It can foul igniters and leave residue under burner caps. Letting parts dry before use is key.
Salt air near the coast
Near the water, salt air accelerates corrosion on small contacts. This shows up as intermittent ignition or strange clicking that comes and goes.
Storm season power events
Power flickers can confuse modern controls. You might see a locked display or an error code that won’t clear after power returns.
Our stove and range repair process
We use a consistent process because guessing wastes your money. It also wastes a trip.
Listen to the symptom
We ask what you see, smell, and hear. Detailed descriptions help us prepare the right parts.
Confirm fuel and power
We verify electric supply or gas supply basics first to rule out external supply issues.
Test failure points
We use meters and visual checks, not hunches. We test switches, elements, and igniters.
Explain what failed
You get a clear explanation and a firm price before any work begins on your appliance.
Repair and retest
We confirm ignition, heat output, and control response before we leave your home.
Share prevention tips
We point out what to watch for next to keep your range running reliably for years.
Tools we use for accurate diagnosis
- Digital multimeter
- Non-contact voltage tester
- Infrared thermometer
- Gas leak detector
- Specialized hand tools
“Accurate measurement prevents unnecessary part swapping.”
Safe checks you can try
- • Gas: Reseat and dry burner caps after cleaning.
- • Gas: Clean burner caps and ports gently.
- • Electric: Swap a dead coil with a working one to test the element.
- • Electric: Check the breaker (Dual breakers can half-trip).
- • All: Check for “Control Lock” mode on the display.
When to stop and call
- Gas smell or repeated delayed ignition
- Sparks, burning odor, or overheating signs
- Breaker trips repeatedly when running
- Yellow flames that do not improve after cleaning
Repair or replace, a quick guide
Most stove and range repairs make sense when the appliance has plenty of life left and the failure is limited to a part like an igniter, switch, or element.
- • Age and overall condition matter more than brand hype
- • If the repair cost approaches a big fraction of replacement, compare options
- • Safety issues like gas odor or breaker trips deserve immediate attention
- • Parts availability can affect timing on modern control boards
If you smell gas or see sparking
Stop using the range. Ventilate the area. If you smell gas strongly, leave the home and contact your gas provider or emergency services.

Stove and range repair FAQs
for Pensacola
Do you repair gas and electric ranges?
Yes, we work on many residential gas and electric stoves and ranges. Tell us the fuel type and symptom when you call.
Why is my gas stove clicking but not lighting?
Usually the burner cap is misaligned, ports are clogged, or the igniter is wet or worn. If it keeps clicking, stop and call.
Why does one electric burner not heat while others work?
Most of the time, that burner has a failed element, switch, or connection. We can test and replace only what is needed.
Why does my burner stay too hot even on low?
That often points to a failing infinite switch or a control issue. It is worth fixing to prevent safety concerns.
My glass top is cracked. Can it be repaired?
A cracked glass top usually needs replacement, not a patch. We can help you understand options once we confirm the model.
How much does stove and range repair cost in Pensacola?
Cost depends on the problem and parts needed. After diagnosis, we quote the full repair price before starting so you can decide with confidence.
Do you offer same-day stove or range repair in Pensacola?
Sometimes, yes. If you call early and we have availability, same-day may be possible. If not, next-day appointments are common.
Why is one burner not heating or lighting?
On electric ranges, a dead burner is often a failed element, switch, or connection. On gas ranges, it can be a clogged burner, ignition issue, or gas flow problem. Diagnosis confirms the cause.
Why does my gas burner keep clicking after it lights?
Continuous clicking usually points to moisture after cleaning, a dirty electrode, a misaligned burner cap, or a weak ignition component. If drying and cleaning do not help, it should be checked.
Why won’t my oven heat but the burners work?
This often points to an oven heating component problem such as a bake element, igniter, temperature sensor, or control issue. We test the heating system to pinpoint the fault.
Why is my range tripping the breaker? Should I reset it?
No. Repeated trips can signal a short, damaged wiring, or a failing component. Stop using the range and schedule service to avoid electrical risk.
My range shows an error code. Can you fix it?
Yes. Error codes often point to a sensor, control board, keypad, or door lock system issue. Share the exact code when you call if possible.
Do you repair electric and gas ranges?
Yes. We repair both electric and gas ranges. Tell us which type you have when you call so we can plan the right testing and parts.
Do you repair glass-top ranges?
Yes. We service many glass-top ranges. If the glass is cracked, it usually requires replacement rather than a repair, depending on the model and part availability.
Do you repair refrigerators or dishwashers?
No. We focus on stoves and ranges, ovens, cooktops, washers, dryers, and standalone freezers in Pensacola.
