Know the home, know the fault

Kingsbridge is a combination of two older settlements, with a town centre retaining many eighteenth and nineteenth-century buildings. The area sits at the northern end of an estuary extending south to the sea, making it a popular tourist destination. Holiday lets and older properties often have fitted kitchens where built-in electric ovens see heavy use during the summer months. Families with children attending the large secondary college nearby also rely heavily on their cooking appliances for daily meals, putting steady wear on hinges, seals, and heating elements. When an electric oven stops working as it should, the problem is usually isolated to a few specific components. A fan oven that blows cold air typically has a failed circular heating element, while uneven cooking might point to a faulty thermostat struggling to read the internal temperature. Ovens that trip the electrics upon heating up often have a breakdown in the element insulation. Door hinges can weaken over time, preventing the glass from sealing tightly against the frame and letting heat escape. This forces the appliance to work harder to maintain temperature and can eventually damage the control knobs or surrounding units. During a visit, we look at ovens that will not heat or only work on certain functions, along with uneven cooking and fan oven faults. We also check units that trip the power, faulty controls, clocks, and worn door seals or hinges. Whether a property is near The Shambles or further out towards Chillington, we repair electric cooking appliances in the home, though we do not work on gas cookers, gas hobs or any gas appliance.
