Range, oven and cooktop installs we handle in Geneva
A new range has to do more than fit the gap. In Geneva we check the gas or electrical supply first, connect the unit per the maker's instructions, put in the anti-tip bracket, level it and test every burner or element before calling it done.
Range that tips forward when the oven door opens
Missing anti-tip brackets are common on older installs. We fasten one to the floor or wall and check it holds before we leave.
Double wall oven on an undersized circuit
A double oven can draw far more than a single unit. An electrician checks the panel and runs a circuit sized to the nameplate before we install it.
Downdraft or venting questions
Some cooktops and ranges need a hood above them, and gas cooking makes good ventilation more important. We look at what's there and recommend the right setup.
Switching from gas to induction
Moving to induction means power, not plumbing. We have the panel capacity checked, the circuit added and the old gas supply safely capped.
Slide-in range that won't sit flush
When a slide-in range leaves a gap at the back or rides high above the counter, it needs adjusting on its legs and sometimes a small change to the counter edge.
Wall oven doesn't fit the old cabinet
Wall oven cutouts differ between makers and model years. We compare the new cutout spec with your cabinet and enlarge or fill the opening as needed.
Switching from electric to gas
Going from an electric range to gas means running a new gas line to the kitchen, which needs a permit and a licensed installer. We plan it and get it inspected.

Oven, Range & Cooktop Installation questions from Geneva homeowners
Do I need a permit to install a gas range in Geneva?
Swapping a range onto an existing gas outlet often doesn't need one, but running a new gas line does. We confirm the Geneva rules before starting.
Can you replace a cooktop with a different size?
Usually. Cutout size is what matters, and we check it before you buy.
Will you haul away my old stove?
We do. Removal of the old unit can be included in the same visit.
Do you install ranges and ovens I bought elsewhere?
We do. Send the model number and we bring the right connector and parts.
Can a gas range be converted to propane?
If the model supports it, a qualified installer converts it with the manufacturer's kit.
What is the Geneva building department phone number?
Permits go through Building & Zoning Division (Building Division), 109 James St., phone 630-262-0280. When your scope needs one, we prepare the application and schedule the inspections.
Do I need a Geneva-registered contractor for range or oven installation?
None: the City does not have contractor registration (contractor name, address, phone and license numbers if required go on the application). We take care of that before work starts.
What happens to the old appliance in Geneva?
Hauler LRS (customer service 844-633-3577); yard waste and bulk items require waste stickers. If you'd rather not deal with it, we haul old units and debris away.
Do I need a permit for range or oven installation in Geneva?
It depends on the scope. Geneva's rule in short: A building permit is required before any construction or alteration; separate Kitchen Remodel permit form exists. We handle the permit when one is needed with Building & Zoning Division (Building Division), 109 James St..
