Stove Repair in Cabbagetown — TSSA-Licensed Gas & Electric, Price Locked Before Arrival
Cabbagetown — the largest continuous area of preserved Victorian housing in North America — presents unique physical constraints for stove repair. The row houses from Parliament to the Don Valley feature original compact kitchens where the 30-inch gas range sits in a space measured in inches. GE, Whirlpool, and Kenmore freestanding models are chosen specifically for their standard 30-inch width — the maximum that fits between the counter run and opposing wall. Every Cabbagetown stove repair involves working in confined spaces with limited access to the rear gas connection and electrical supply.
Minimal clearance behind the gas range makes rear-access repairs (gas valve, electrical connection, control board) significantly more time-consuming than in open kitchens. Slim-profile tools are required. Gas stove repair in Cabbagetown requires TSSA-licensed technicians under Ontario law. Fixlify technicians carry the required TSSA gas fitter certification for all gas stove work. We never subcontract gas repairs to unlicensed personnel — every gas component we touch is serviced by a certified gas fitter who understands both manufacturer specifications and Ontario safety code requirements.
Common stove repairs in Cabbagetown: gas burner igniter replacement ($120–$200), gas valve assembly ($150–$300), control board replacement ($200–$400), electric element ($80–$180), glass cooktop panel ($200–$450), infinite switch ($80–$150). Our technicians carry common parts for GE, Whirlpool, Kenmore stoves on every dispatch to Cabbagetown.
Local tip for Cabbagetown: Ensure the gas shutoff valve behind the range is accessible and operational. In many Cabbagetown row houses the valve hasn't been turned in years and may be seized — freeing it during a repair visit costs $0 extra.
Gas vs. Electric Stove Repair in Cabbagetown
Cabbagetown homes contain both gas and electric stoves. Gas repair requires TSSA licensing, pressure testing, and gas valve expertise. Electric repair involves element testing, infinite switch diagnostics, and control board work. Dual-fuel ranges need both skill sets on a single visit. Fixlify technicians are certified for both gas and electrical appliance work.
