Do you actually come out to East Palo Alto for this brand?

Yes. My technician is based in San Mateo County, so East Palo Alto gets the same response as any other Peninsula city. I won't promise same-day, but I get the diagnostic on the calendar quickly.

Is a La Cornue repair worth it if the part has to come from France?

Almost always. These ranges are hand-built and hold their value, so the part cost and the wait are usually worth it against replacing the whole range. I tell you the real lead time before you decide.

What do you charge just to look at it?

The diagnostic is $99, credited toward the repair. We provide a written repair estimate after the on-site diagnosis and before any work starts, and I'm out seven days a week.

La Cornue in East Palo Alto

La Cornue in East Palo Alto kitchens.

I'll be honest about East Palo Alto: most of the city is dense rental housing and working family homes, and a hand-built French range isn't something I see often here. When a call does come in, it's usually from one of the newer custom builds near the bay side or a remodel that borders Menlo Park, where the owner brought the same appliance package they'd have chosen in a Palo Alto kitchen.

If you do have a Chateau or CornuFe in East Palo Alto, you fall under the same San Mateo County technician coverage as anywhere else on the Peninsula, so the call isn't treated as an outlier. These ranges are hand-assembled in France, and anything past basic ignition consumables usually has to be special-ordered from there. I diagnose the actual fault before quoting any part, so you're not paying to guess.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Ignition and gas valve fault. No spark or a flame that won't hold on the Chateau cooktop. I test the ignitor, the spark module, and the gas valve in that order to isolate the real cause.
Oven thermostat drift. Baking that runs hot or cold against the dial setting. I test the thermostat against actual cavity temperature before I swap it.
Door hinge and gasket wear. A sagging oven door and a gasket that no longer seals let heat escape during bakes. I replace the hinge or the gasket, whichever one is actually failing, not both as a default.
