Our Oven / Stove Diagnostic Process
Cooking appliance diagnostics begin with verifying proper power or gas supply and confirming the appliance is operating within manufacturer specifications. This includes evaluating electrical circuits, gas pressure and ignition systems, and safety components.
​
Next, we test heating elements, igniters, thermostats, sensors, and control boards to determine whether the issue is mechanical, electrical, or related to control logic. Accurate testing is essential, as symptoms such as temperature inconsistency or ignition failure can be caused by multiple underlying factors.
We also inspect safety-related components, including thermal limits and flame-sensing devices, to ensure the appliance is operating safely.
​
Once the issue has been identified, we provide repair options ranging from the minimum required to address the immediate failure to preventative maintenance recommendations, based on our experience with your specific make and model.
​
Many cooking appliance repairs can be completed in a single visit due to thorough appointment triage and our inventory of commonly used cooking appliance parts.
When to Repair vs Replace
Cooking appliance repairs are often practical for heating and control issues, while multiple major failures, structural damage, or limited parts availability may make replacement the more reliable option.
Cooking appliance repairs often make sense when failures involve heating elements, igniters, sensors, controls, or other serviceable components. These issues can typically be repaired reliably when the appliance has otherwise performed well.
​
Replacement may be the better option when:
​
-
Multiple major failures are present at the same time
-
Internal cabinet or structural damage is present
-
Repair costs approach a significant portion of replacement cost
-
Required replacement parts are no longer available or readily obtainable
In these situations, replacing the appliance may be more practical than pursuing repairs that cannot be completed reliably.
