Quick check — and when it's not DIY
There's one thing worth checking before you book anyone: check whether an ignition click or spark is audible at all when it should be heating. If it's still acting up after that, no spark or flame usually means the igniter or gas valve itself has failed, and gas-carrying parts are restricted to licensed work in most jurisdictions.
