We repair La Cornue appliances in every East Liberty, Squirrel Hill & the East End ZIP code (5 in all). The fault is found in your home and priced for your yes or no before any work.
The East End is where Pittsburgh's housing changes most from one street to the next. Lawrenceville and Bloomfield are rows of narrow brick houses built for mill and rail workers, now full of restaurants and new residents; Friendship, Highland Park and Point Breeze are big porches and three-story Victorians; Squirrel Hill mixes large houses with duplexes and apartments; and East Liberty has new apartment blocks going up beside century-old homes.
Two things worth knowing about La Cornue before we arrive: parts for a La Cornue normally come from the factory, so the wait for them is the main limit on a repair; and La Cornue builds heavy, with mechanical controls and burners meant to be serviced, which keeps its ranges repairable for decades.
Call or book online and we'll set up a time that works for you.
La Cornue: platform and parts
La Cornue designs and makes its own appliances, so the parts and service methods belong to La Cornue alone, and parts for La Cornue work around East Liberty, Squirrel Hill & the East End come through its own supply chain.
Send us the model number with your booking. Look for a sticker inside the door or lid, along the frame, behind the bottom kick plate or on the rear panel; with it we can look up that platform's known weak points and carry those parts instead of ordering after the first visit.
Servicing built-in La Cornue equipment
Most La Cornue equipment is built into cabinets or fastened down, so around East Liberty, Squirrel Hill & the East End the first thing we settle is how to get at it. We plan the removal before the day, book a longer slot, and protect the floor, the cabinet fronts and the counters before anything moves.
Pulling out a built-in La Cornue also means paying for cabinet or countertop work, so a fault that would send a freestanding unit to the curb is usually just a repair here.
Where La Cornue appliances sit in East Liberty, Squirrel Hill & the East End
Basement washers draining into old laundry tubs, dryers venting through rim joists and stone foundation walls, gas ranges and dryers on older piping, built-in and pro-style kitchens in renovated Squirrel Hill and Point Breeze houses, and reach-ins, ice machines and prep coolers in the restaurants along Butler Street, Penn Avenue and Liberty Avenue.
No matter the brand, a La Cornue appliance in East Liberty, Squirrel Hill & the East End is only as good as the drain, circuit, vent and water line it's hooked to, and here the washer and dryer are usually in the basement in nearly every house, from a cramped rowhouse cellar in Lawrenceville to a full basement in Squirrel Hill, and a closet in the newer apartments.
Dryer vents in older houses
Clothes that are warm but still damp after a full cycle almost always mean the dryer can't push its air out. In East Liberty, Squirrel Hill & the East End, the choke point is often a vent that runs across a basement ceiling and out through a stone or block foundation, a foil hose crushed behind the machine, or an outside flap stuck with lint or ice.
We check the airflow before touching the heating element or the thermal fuse. New parts fitted to a dryer that still can't breathe fail the same way.
Frozen lines and cold-weather leaks
Water damage from appliances usually starts at a hookup rather than inside the machine: a rubber washer hose that finally burst, a fridge line pinched when the refrigerator was shoved back, or a line that froze and split.
Braided stainless hoses, a shutoff valve you can reach without moving the appliance, and a drip pan under an upstairs washer are cheap and worth having. If water appears, turn off the supply and unplug the machine before anything else.
