Lorton notes
Lorton ranges, burner by burner
An LG range from Hybla Valley, in the requests below, had a front burner that wouldn't ignite. Gas was flowing but there was no clicking at all. On most ranges every electrode sparks when any knob is turned, so a quick test narrows it down. If turning that burner's own knob makes nothing click anywhere, its igniter switch is the likely fault; if other knobs make every electrode spark except that one, its wire or electrode is. When no knob makes anything click, the spark module or its power supply is more likely.
Don't hold a burner open trying to get it to catch. Turn it off and let the gas clear for a few minutes before you try again.
If you smell gas with the burners off, or the smell doesn't fade, leave the house and call Washington Gas or 911 once you're outside.
Smooth-top electric ranges in newer Lorton kitchens have their own pattern. If a zone glows with its knob off, a switch or relay has stuck closed; cut the power at the breaker and leave it off until the part is replaced. A zone that stays dark is less urgent and usually needs its element or switch.

Frequently asked questions
Stove Repair in Lorton, VA FAQ
Can someone come fix my stove today in Lorton?
We're based in Alexandria, about 12 miles from Lorton. Same-day and next-day appointments are available when the technician route has open windows; call or book online for the earliest option. Appointments cost the same on weekdays, evenings and weekends - our hours run 8 AM to 10 PM Monday through Saturday and 10 AM to 10 PM on Sunday, all at one standard rate.
Many stove repairs are completed in a single visit once the technician has diagnosed the fault and confirmed the parts on hand. If a specific part has to be ordered, we schedule a short return visit to finish the job.
How much does it cost to fix a stove in Lorton?
Appliance Surgeon charges $75 for the diagnostic visit, or $115 for a double unit (such as a double wall oven, washer-dryer combo or stacked laundry), and the fee is credited toward the repair if you approve the quote. Labor starts at $200 and stays there on about 9 in 10 repairs; more complex jobs can reach $450. Parts are extra and listed in the quote. Igniters, spark switches and burner elements are usually quick, economical fixes; gas valves and smooth-top control panels cost more. Diagnosis names the part, the quote comes before the repair, and a burner stuck on high is always treated as urgent. Typical price ranges by appliance are in our appliance repair cost guide.
What stove problems do you fix in Lorton?
Common calls include burner not lighting, weak flame, electric burner not heating, clicking igniter, control knob problems and uneven heat. The exact cause is confirmed during diagnosis.
One burner won't click but the others do. What's wrong?
Try another knob and watch the dead burner. On most ranges every electrode sparks together, so if it clicks from another knob, the switch behind its own knob has failed; if it stays quiet with every knob, its wire or electrode is the problem. Make sure the cap is seated and the electrode is dry before calling.
Can I keep using the stove with one burner out?
Usually, as long as the faulty burner stays off and there's no gas smell. Don't try to light it by holding the knob open. An electric zone that's stuck on is different: cut the power at the breaker until it's repaired.
Should I try to fix the stove myself first?
You can safely check that the burner caps sit correctly, the igniter area is clean and dry, and the breaker is on. Anything involving gas valves or internal wiring should wait for a technician - and a burner stuck on high should be treated as urgent, not tinkered with.
