What Katy homes change about a La Cornue repair
Local housing, power events, water conditions, and installation styles all affect how we approach La Cornue diagnostics here.
Three counties and many communities
Rice farming started Katy, at the corner where Harris, Fort Bend and Waller counties meet, and concrete rice dryers from 1944 are still there. Later decades added Cinco Ranch, Grand Lakes and Firethorne around the old town.
Because Greater Katy spans three counties and many districts, a street name alone may not place the house, so we ask for the community as well. Give us the street and community, and tell us the fuel.
Harvey, Buffalo Bayou and the reservoir pool
Inside city limits, Harvey's August 2017 overflow from upper Buffalo Bayou and Cane Island Branch reached about 110 homes and 25 businesses. Farther east, the Barker Reservoir pool took in many more houses.
A range that stood in that water can hide corroded valves and wiring that only fail later. Tell us if water reached the kitchen, and keep the range off until we inspect it.
Large open kitchens under large hoods
Katy-area builds with big open kitchens frequently include a 36-inch gas cooktop beside built-in wall ovens. Second-floor laundry rooms are common.
A large gas cooking surface in an open plan can pull more air than the house gives back, so hood strength and makeup air matter. Tell us the hood make and whether it has a makeup-air damper, and we check it with the range.
Katy covers parts of three counties, and each community has its own gate and rules. Large open kitchens are common, with the range under a big hood. Send the street, the community name, the fuel type and a photo of the model label.
A strong hood without enough makeup air can pull flames sideways and make a burner look unsteady. We read the flame at each burner, check ventilation and measure the oven against its dial, because a mechanical La Cornue shows no code. Call your gas supplier at once if you smell gas, and an electrician if a breaker trips.

My flame bends toward the hood. Is that normal?
A strong hood can do it, especially without makeup air. We check airflow and burner ports.
My vaulted oven runs hot. What do you do?
We measure the oven with a thermometer against the dial, since there is no display. We quote the repair in writing before work.
Which community should I name when booking?
The subdivision or district, such as Cinco Ranch, Grand Lakes or Firethorne, with your street. That places the visit in the right county.
