" I hired Norman Ave Studio to refinish a few pieces of older furniture that had seen better days — a dining table, a credenza, and a set of chairs. The transformation was incredible. David brought everything back to life without losing any of the character. The finish is rich, smooth, and durable, and the attention to detail really shows. He was responsive, punctual, and respectful of our home. What I appreciated most was how clearly he explained the process, helped us understand our options, and stuck to the timeline. If you’re looking for someone who actually cares about the end result, this is who you call. Highly recommended."

Most glass stove tops serve faithfully for 10 to 20 years with proper maintenance. Longevity depends largely on usage patterns, cleaning practices, and the quality of the original materials. Regular, gentle cleaning and avoiding heavy impacts can extend your stove top's life considerably. Watch for warning signs like inconsistent heating or visible stress marks that might indicate replacement is becoming necessary.
In many cases, you can replace only the glass surface without changing the entire stove. This approach works well when the underlying heating elements and electrical components remain functional. However, some manufacturers design their units with integrated components that require complete assembly replacement. Consulting your owner's manual or speaking with a qualified technician helps determine the best approach for your specific model.
Even small cracks in a glass stove top present significant safety concerns. What appears as minor damage can quickly worsen with heat exposure, potentially leading to complete failure during cooking. Cracks also create pathways for spills to reach electrical components, posing shock and fire hazards. For your safety, avoid using a cracked stove top and arrange for inspection or replacement promptly.
A professional technician completes a glass stove top replacement within approximately two hours. This timeframe includes removing the damaged surface, installing the new glass, and testing all connections. The project may extend longer if complications arise or if your stove has unusual features. When ordering replacement parts, factor in additional days for delivery before scheduling installation.
Glass stove tops most commonly break from physical impacts like dropping heavy cookware or utensils. Thermal shock—the stress caused by rapid temperature changes—also contributes to breakage, especially when hot surfaces come into contact with cold items. Prevent damage by handling cookware carefully, allowing surfaces to cool before cleaning, and using appropriate pots and pans designed for glass cooking surfaces.
