Thermador built its name on professional-style ranges and induction cooktops, and that is still where most of our service calls start — igniters, induction elements and oven control boards on the brand’s higher-output ranges and wall ovens. The company’s refrigeration and dishwashers, common in the same kitchens, round out the rest of our work.
Because Thermador ranges are often the centerpiece of a kitchen, we prioritize getting a working quote out fast, and we carry or can quickly source the igniters and control boards that cover most of the common failures.
Thermador is one of the premium cooking brands in Houston’s luxury kitchen segment, and its Star Burner ranges, steam ovens and Freedom refrigeration columns appear regularly in the Memorial and River Oaks homes we service. The brand’s cooking appliances are the most common call — igniters, convection fans and the electronic controls that manage the Star Burner’s continuous grate system.
My Thermador range burner will not ignite – what is the fix?
Thermador Star Burner ignition issues typically come down to a worn igniter, a contaminated burner cap or moisture in the ignition module. The continuous grate system makes it easier for liquids to reach the igniter, so it is a frequent call after a cooking spill. We clean and test before replacing parts — a clean igniter often sparks reliably again without a new component.
Do you service Thermador refrigeration as well as ranges?
Yes. Thermador Freedom column refrigerators and the older side-by-side units are both in our service mix. The Freedom columns have specific cabinet integration requirements that affect how we approach the diagnosis — we account for the surrounding cabinetry before pulling the unit.
Thermador appliances represent a significant investment, and we treat the diagnostic and repair accordingly — OEM parts sourced through the manufacturer’s network, a written flat-price quote before we start, and a warranty on parts and labor when we leave.
