Top Cooktop Installation related questions

It’s best to put up a task and get a quote from a Tasker to know the average cost of cooktop installation. Please be aware that the prices may vary depending on your Tasker’s credentials, job complexity, and size and number of appliances being installed. Be sure to discuss this with them before accepting their offer.

It’s best to discuss cooktop and oven installation requirements before booking a Tasker. Also, depending on where you live, you will need to hire a licenced technician that can safely handle gas, electric, or induction cooktop installation jobs. Speak to your Tasker and confirm if they have the necessary licences and insurance.

It usually takes between one to two hours on average to install a cooktop in your kitchen. It takes about an hour for your Tasker to check the lines for any leaks. Plus, it takes another hour to install the actual cooktop. It may take longer if your job requires changing the gas or electric lines or redoing the kitchen. 

It would be best to consult with your Tasker if this is a service they offer. This is usually included on top of many cooktop installation services. But this may vary from one Tasker to another, especially if they do not have the means to transport or recycle your old cooktop. 

What do cooktop installation services include?

Airtasker’s cooktop installation services include different cooktops, from electric and induction cooktops to gas cooktops and even gas regulators. No need to prepare extra tools since Taskers can bring everything they need for the job. Details and specifics may vary between one Tasker to another, but here’s what’s generally included when you book an electric or gas cooktop installation service near you:

Checking the installation area

If safety is your prime concern, let a Tasker put your mind at ease. Nearby professionals can conduct a safety check to ensure that the clearances above your cooktop and the area around it adhere to local safety standards. These safety checks are crucial when renovating or building a kitchen.

Inspecting your new cooktop

Taskers make it a point to check the item to see any visible defects before installing. This simple step could save you more money in the long run. This ensures you’re not installing a dodgy appliance that may cause you problems in the future, both physically and financially. 

Installation your cooktop

At Airtasker, we connect you to professionals with the right expertise to ensure the job is done right. When installing an induction cooktop, your Tasker will attach your appliance to any existing connections and ensure that these meet the required standards. If you’re the type that prefers cooking with gas instead, be sure to hire a Tasker who knows their way around gas appliances. They’ll show you how to install a gas regulator in cooktops, so you won’t need to worry about safety while trying to do the job yourself.

Testing your new kitchen appliance

We’re pretty sure you’ll be thrilled once the job’s done. You may even want to start cooking a few dishes to get a feel of your new cooktop. But before you put on your chef’s hat, allow your technician to do some tests to make sure it’s working and fully operational. 

Once they confirm this, depending on your location, you’ll be given a certificate as proof that it’s been installed by a licensed professional and that it meets all the required safety standards. Make sure to keep it because you may need it to claim your manufacturer’s warranty.

Chirnside Park, Victoria

Replace induction cooktop with another one. I am not sure but I think the old one is connected to a 25A. The new one might need a 32A circuit. The switchboard already includes a dedicated switch for Cooktop. Photo attached. You can check what amph is required for the new one to make sure. No need to cut the cabinet as both have same cut size. Certificate of the installation is required from a certified electrician. Location is Holloway road, Croydon North Please send me reasonable offers.

He is an expert in his job. Highly recommended.
