Cooktop Repair — quick answers
Do you work on gas and electric both?
Yes. Gas sealed burners, coil elements, radiant glass tops, and induction. We're an independent shop and service all major brands. Tell us the brand and roughly how old the unit is when you call us, and we'll come prepared.
Why does my igniter keep clicking after the burner lights?
Usually moisture or spilled food bridging the spark electrode, so the module keeps firing. Drying the burner area often stops it. If clicking continues dry, the switch or spark module is failing and needs replacing.
How long do parts take to arrive?
That depends on the part and the boat. Common elements, switches, and igniters often move quickly. Control boards and glass tops for less common models can take longer to reach the islands. We give you a realistic window before ordering anything.
Can a cracked glass cooktop be repaired?
Cracks in ceramic glass can't be patched safely. The panel gets replaced as a unit. Stop using that surface right away — moisture reaching the elements underneath creates a shock hazard. Call us and we'll check whether the panel is still available.
Is salt air really hard on a cooktop?
It is. Coastal homes see corrosion on burner terminals, element receptacles, and control connections faster than inland homes. Green or white crust on a plug means resistance and heat. Cleaning and replacing corroded connectors is routine work for us.
Should I turn off the gas before you arrive?
Only if you smell gas. Then shut the supply valve, open windows, skip the light switches, and call the gas company first. Otherwise leave things as they are so we can see the fault happen for ourselves.
