Know the home, know the fault

Operating from our home base on the southern coast between the rivers Plym and Tamar, we repair electric ovens across a varied housing landscape. The post-war years saw dense overcrowded areas replaced by widespread low density suburban housing, alongside thousands of prefabricated properties built rapidly during the nineteen fifties. In shared student accommodation or busy family homes, an electric oven sees heavy daily use, which accelerates wear on moving parts and heating components. When an electric oven fails to heat or only heats on certain functions, the issue usually lies with a blown element or a faulty thermostat. Uneven cooking and fan oven faults occur when the fan motor struggles to circulate hot air, leaving food burnt on one side and raw on the other. Heavy use takes a toll on door hinges, seals and glass, allowing heat to escape and forcing the appliance to work harder to maintain temperature. Faulty controls and clocks can also prevent the oven from turning on at all. Another issue is when the oven trips the electrics, which happens when an internal component develops an earth fault. We only work on electric and induction cooking appliances, so we do not repair gas cookers or gas hobs. During a visit, we look at the specific symptoms your electric oven is showing. We check the elements if the oven will not heat, inspect the fan motor for uneven cooking issues, and test the internal wiring if the appliance trips the power. We also examine door hinges and seals for heat loss, alongside testing faulty thermostats, controls and clocks to find out why the appliance is not operating.
