FAQ
Questions about microwave oven repair
How long does microwave oven repair usually take?
Most of these jobs take 30 to 90 minutes on site. If the part we need is not on the van, you hear that the same day, with a real parts date, before you approve anything.
What does microwave oven repair cost?
Price depends on the fault. The diagnostic fee is $65.00, and you get a written price before any work begins.
Runs but does not heat — what usually causes that?
It is one of the most common symptoms we see on this service, and it has several possible causes. That is exactly why on-site diagnosis comes first: we measure before we replace. You never pay for a part that did not fix the problem.
Is microwave oven repair worth doing, or should I replace the unit?
If the repair approaches half the cost of an equivalent new unit and the appliance already has age on it, we will say so plainly — including when that means we do not get the job. On this repair specifically, the age of the unit and the cost of the main part are what decide it. A unit showing "sparking or arcing inside" alongside other faults is usually the one to replace.
