Know the home, know the fault

Properties built on the steep landscape rising from the River Kensey up towards the castle include older housing stock, such as Georgian houses. In a predominantly rural setting that supports the surrounding agricultural economy, kitchens in these older homes might have been updated to accommodate built-in or freestanding electric ovens. When an oven fails, preparing meals becomes difficult, especially in rural locations where households rely on home cooking. Electric ovens develop specific faults over time, regardless of the property age. A unit that will not heat, or only heats on certain functions, usually points to a failed element. Uneven cooking is another issue, which happens when the fan motor stops circulating hot air properly. Ovens can also trip the electrics when an internal component develops an earth fault. Mechanical parts wear out through daily use, leading to problems with door hinges, worn seals, or damaged door glass. Electrical components like faulty thermostats, control switches, and clocks can also prevent the appliance from reaching the correct temperature or turning on at all. We travel out to surrounding areas like Tregadillett to repair electric ovens in the home. During a visit, we look at ovens that will not heat or only work on some settings, investigate uneven cooking and fan oven faults, and trace the cause of appliances that trip the electrics. We also inspect door hinges, seals, and glass, alongside testing faulty thermostats, controls, and clocks. Please note we do not work on gas cookers, gas hobs, or any gas appliance.
