Oven repair in South End and Dilworth

A Dilworth kitchen remodel sometimes moves the oven into a wall cabinet, occasionally as a double oven, wired on a circuit added years after the house was built. When a wall oven heats unevenly or shuts off partway through baking, the cause may be a failing element, a temperature sensor or a cooling fan. Sometimes the circuit feeding it plays a part, so the technician checks the supply as well as the oven.

In South End's newer townhomes and apartments, the oven is more often part of a freestanding or slide-in range with touch controls. Those controls can lock up after a power flicker, and turning the breaker off for a few minutes is a safe first step.

With gas ovens in either neighborhood, a long delay before the burner lights usually means a weak igniter. If you smell gas, get everyone out and call the gas utility or 911. We give you the diagnosis and price before replacing anything.
