Stove Repair in Islington Village — TSSA-Licensed Gas & Electric, Price Locked Before Arrival
Islington Village in central Etobicoke along Dundas West near Islington Avenue is a stable suburban neighbourhood where established homeowners have maintained their 1950s-1980s detached homes through decades. Gas ranges are frequently 15 to 25 years old, and the Fixlify repair profile for Islington Village centres on aging gas components: thermostat calibration drift that causes uneven oven temperatures, pilot light assembly failure in pre-electronic-ignition models, and gas valve degradation from decades of thermal cycling through heating and cooling seasons.
Some homes still have standing pilot light systems. Thermocouple replacement every 8-12 years is necessary as the tip oxidizes and loses pilot flame sensing capability. Gas stove repair in Islington Village 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 Islington Village: 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).

Local tip for Islington Village: Have standing pilot light thermocouples tested every 5 years. A weak thermocouple allows the pilot to extinguish without triggering safety shutoff — an immediate safety concern. Replacement costs $80-$140.
