Do you have a technician who actually covers San Carlos, or am I waiting on a drive from Contra Costa?

We have a technician based on the Peninsula, in San Mateo County, who covers San Carlos and the surrounding cities directly. That does not mean same-day every time, since it depends on his schedule, but the response is local, not a cross-bay trip.

ILVE parts ship from Italy. What does that mean for my repair timeline?

Some ILVE parts are imported and carry a wait along with a higher cost. We diagnose the exact failure on the first visit so we order the correct part once, rather than guessing and ordering twice. Common igniter switches we try to keep on hand.

What does an ILVE repair cost in San Carlos?

Diagnostic is $99, credited toward the repair. Every repair gets a written quote before we order any part, since igniter switches, FFD components, and imported selector switches price differently depending on what the unit needs. Gas work is done under CSLB #1136642.

ILVE in San Carlos

ILVE in San Carlos kitchens.

San Carlos splits down the middle. The hillside remodels above Alameda de las Pulgas and around Devonshire run brass-trim ILVE Nostalgie or Majestic dual-fuel ranges next to a Sub-Zero column, while the flats down toward Old County Road and the industrial east side mostly keep standard domestic ranges. Laurel Street's restaurant row sits in between, a good landmark, but the calls I get come from home kitchens, not the restaurants.

On these installs I see burner igniter-switch failures and oven flame-failure device faults most, usually once a range passes the eight to ten year mark. ZIP 94070. We keep a technician based on the Peninsula, in San Mateo County, so San Carlos gets a local response instead of a drive across the bay from a Contra Costa shop.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Burner igniter switch and ignition spark module. One burner clicks and lights, another just clicks. Sometimes every burner clicks at once when you turn a single knob. We test each igniter switch and the spark module separately before we swap anything.
Oven flame-failure device and thermocouple. The oven catches, then the flame drops out a few seconds after you let go of the knob. That is the FFD or thermocouple losing its signal. Replacement part, sometimes on an import lead time.
Multi-function oven selector switch. Bake works but broil does not, or the dial feels loose and functions cut out at random. The selector switch wears from daily use and is a common failure point on these ranges.
Dual-fuel electric oven element and door hinge. No bake heat on the electric side, or the door sags and the gasket leaks heat. Element or hinge and gasket replacement, diagnosed and confirmed before we order.
