Wall ovens and range ovens that won't heat, bake unevenly or run hot or cold against the dial. Gas igniters and electric bake elements are the usual suspects, and both are quick repairs.
Common faults
A weak igniter glows but doesn't draw enough current to open the gas valve. It's the most common gas oven repair.
A burnt-out bake or broil element, often visibly blistered. We confirm with a meter.
A failing temperature sensor or a control that needs calibrating. We check with our own thermometer.
A worn fan motor or a failed relay on the control board.
How we diagnose
We measure the oven's real temperature against the setting, test igniter current and element resistance, and read any fault codes. Then you get a written price.
Igniters, elements, sensors and fans are always worth repairing. A control board on an older oven is the one case where we compare cost against a new unit with you.
