Where stoves sit in Cook County: older housing stock, specified kitchens, mixed housing. [All of Chicago](https://stoverepair.center/locations/chicagoland/) ### Older housing stock Buyers of an older house often inherit the stove that came with it and ask one thing first: is it worth keeping? A visit answers by lighting every burner, heating the oven and looking at the gas connector before any money goes to a new stove. ### Specified kitchens A slide-in stove between custom cabinets overlaps the counter at its edges, so it is drawn out with care and pushed back with the gaps kept tight, and a stove that rocks or sits proud of the counter afterward is leveled on its feet. ### Mixed housing Mixed neighborhoods set rentals beside owner-occupied houses, so a stove repair may be booked by a landlord for a tenant one day and by an owner who has cooked on the same stove for decades the next. ## Where we go in Cook County. 20 cities and neighborhoods across Cook County, part of Chicago, 10 of them with a page on what that place does to a stove.
