Electric Oven & Range Repair Service

Whether you have a built-in oven or a freestanding stove, our team handles every aspect of oven stove repair to restore full heat and functionality to your appliance.

  • Faulty Element Replacement: Quick replacement of Bake Elements, Grill Elements, or Fan Elements for all brands, restoring consistent heat.

  • Oven Thermostat Calibration: Ensuring your oven heats to the temperature displayed, eliminating undercooked or burnt meals.

  • Selector Switch & Wiring Diagnostics: Repairing the core control mechanisms and complicated wiring harnesses that manage the oven’s different functions.

  • Oven Fan Motor Repair: Fixing or replacing noisy, seized, or slow fan motors to ensure proper heat circulation and even cooking.

Safety is our first concern. Never ignore the smell of gas. Our certified Umhlanga gas appliance experts offer rapid response for:

  • Gas Leak Detection and Repair: Immediate, safety-certified service to identify and seal leaks in the piping, valves, or fittings.

  • Ignition System Failure Fixes: Repairing or replacing faulty pilot lights, igniter switches, and electronic spark modules so your burner lights instantly.

  • Irregular Flame Adjustment: Correcting uneven or weak flames, ensuring optimal heat for perfect cooking results.

  • Gas Control Valve Repair: Replacing sticky or broken control valves that prevent gas flow or limit temperature adjustment.

 

 

For all surface cooking issues, we have the specialized expertise to restore full hob functionality.

  • Ceramic and Induction Glass Top Repair: Addressing cracks, broken glass, or functionality issues on high-tech ceramic and induction surfaces.

  • Coil Element Repair and Replacement: Fixing classic coil-type burners that are cracked, not heating, or heating unevenly.

  • Infinite Switch Replacement: Repairing the dials that control the heat level for each plate, restoring precise temperature control.

  1. Clean Spills Immediately (Expert Tip): Grease and food residue are highly acidic and, over time, can burn into the oven’s heating elements or catalytic liners, causing premature failure.

  2. Inspect the Door Seal (The Energy Saver): The rubber gasket around your oven door keeps heat in. Check it regularly for tears or brittleness. A faulty seal dramatically increases baking time and electricity consumption.

  3. Check the Vents: Ensure the exhaust vents (usually located near the back or top) are clear of aluminum foil or heavy pots. Blocked vents can cause your oven to overheat and damage internal electronics.

  4. Self-Clean Cycle Warning: If your oven has a self-clean function, only use it when necessary. This cycle uses extreme heat that can stress electrical components; if your oven is old, call us for an inspection before running a self-clean.
