Our repair approach
Clear diagnosis before repair
We begin with the symptoms you have noticed, check the components and controls connected with the fault, then explain what needs attention. A proper diagnosis helps avoid replacing parts unnecessarily.
How repair pricing works →Professional repair service
We diagnose the cause and repair the fault properly
Ovens and electric stoves contain separate heating, switching and temperature-control circuits. One element can fail while another still heats, and an oven can power up normally while the heating circuit remains open.
Tell us which function has failed: bake, grill, fan, hob plate, selector, thermostat, display or full power. If the appliance trips the supply, we test the electrical fault separately from a slow-heating problem.
Gas burners require different ignition, flame and safety checks from electric elements and switches.
What we check
We test the systems that can cause the fault
We use the symptoms to guide our checks, then confirm the cause before recommending parts or repair work.
Heating circuit
Elements, wiring, terminals and switching are checked where heat is absent or intermittent.
Temperature control
Thermostats, sensors and electronic controls are considered when the oven overheats, underheats or cycles abnormally.
Selector and regulators
Function selectors and hob energy regulators can fail mechanically or electrically while other parts of the cooker continue to operate.
Power and insulation
Tripping faults may require checks for damaged elements, insulation breakdown, wiring problems or moisture-related faults.
Safety note
If the cooker is tripping the supply, sparking unexpectedly, producing a burning smell or showing damaged wiring, isolate it safely and avoid repeated testing.
How we diagnose the problem
We isolate the power, heating and control fault
Tell us whether the oven, grill, fan, hob plate, selector or display has failed and we will test the systems responsible.
Confirm the failed function
Bake, grill, plate, hob, ignition and control faults follow different circuits.
Test the heating circuit
Elements and their wiring or switching are checked where loss of heat is the symptom.
Check temperature and control
Thermostats, sensors, selectors and electronic controls are considered when heat is uncontrolled or absent.
Functional check
After the repair, the relevant heating or control function is checked for operation.
Our repair work
Repairs carried out by our technicians
We work directly on appliance components, electrical systems, cooling systems and controls, then test the repaired function before the job is complete.
Repairs we carry out
What we can repair once the fault is confirmed
Once we identify the cause, we explain the repair, the parts involved where applicable and what the appliance needs to operate correctly again.
Elements and heating parts
Bake, grill and hob heating faults are repaired according to the confirmed failed circuit.
Switches and controls
Selectors, regulators, thermostats and control components are checked according to the exact function that has stopped working.
Wiring and terminals
Heat-damaged terminals, loose connections and damaged wiring can cause intermittent or complete failure.
Mixed gas/electric cookers
Tell us which side is faulty so we can prepare for either gas-appliance or electrical repair work.

Gas and electric cooking appliances receive different safety checks
We repair both electric cooking appliances and gas hobs, with the diagnosis and repair matched to the appliance type.
Electric heating faults
Elements, regulators, thermostats, switches and wiring are part of the electric cooking-appliance repair approach.
Gas burner faults
Ignition, burner condition, flame quality and gas-side components require a different diagnostic approach.
Mixed appliances
Some freestanding cookers combine gas and electric systems. Tell us which function is failing when you book.
Common questions
Oven or Stove Repair FAQs
Answers to the questions customers commonly ask before a repair.
Why does my oven light up but not heat?
The display or light can work even when a heating element, thermostat, selector, relay or heating circuit has failed.
Why does the oven trip the electricity?
A damaged element, insulation fault, wiring problem or another electrical defect can cause tripping. Stop repeated testing until it has been checked.
Can you repair a stove when only one plate is faulty?
Yes. A single plate or its regulator, switch, wiring or connection can fail independently of the other cooking zones.
Do gas hobs use the same repair process?
No. Gas ignition, burner and flame faults are handled separately from electric heating faults.
