Range, oven and cooktop installs we handle in Tinley Park
Swapping a stove sounds quick, and often it is. When it isn't, the reason is usually an old flex connector, a circuit too small for a new wall oven, or a cooktop cutout that doesn't match. We take care of those details in Tinley Park kitchens so the appliance works safely from day one.
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.
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.
Pro-style range that needs more gas and space
A 36- or 48-inch range is heavier and hungrier than a standard one. We look at the floor, the gas supply and the hood before install day.
Slide-in range that won't sit flush
Slide-in ranges have to fit the counter edge and the cabinet sides closely. We check the opening, trim the anti-tip setup and level the unit until the side trim sits tight.
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.
Switching from gas to induction
Many owners want to leave gas behind. The first question is whether your electrical service can carry an induction range; we find out before you buy.
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.

Oven, Range & Cooktop Installation questions from Tinley Park homeowners
Does a wall oven need its own circuit?
A dedicated circuit is standard. The required size is on the oven's nameplate and installation guide.
What is an anti-tip bracket and do I need one?
It's a small metal bracket behind the rear leg. Every freestanding and slide-in range should have one engaged.
Does a gas range need to be professionally installed?
We recommend it. A gas range needs a new connector, tight joints, a leak check, an anti-tip bracket and a burner test.
How much does range or oven installation cost?
It depends on the appliance type, gas or electric, any cabinet or counter changes and whether a gas line or circuit is needed. We give a written, itemized estimate after looking at your setup.
Can I switch to induction in an older Tinley Park home?
Often yes, but it depends on your electrical service. An electrician checks the panel capacity and runs a 240-volt circuit sized for the cooktop or range.
Do I need a Tinley Park-registered contractor for range or oven installation?
Village contractor license required for all contractors; $100/year general, $50/year subcontractor. We take care of that before work starts.

Permits go through Building Department (Community Development), phone 708-444-5100. When your scope needs one, we prepare the application and schedule the inspections.
What does Tinley Park ask for on electrical work?
Changing electric service must be done by a licensed electrical contractor. New circuits and wiring are done by licensed electricians.
