Know the home, know the fault

Properties around this natural harbour range from primary residences to secondary homes and holiday accommodation, which account for a significant portion of the local economy. An electric range cooker is a substantial unit that handles heavy use, especially in holiday lets where different guests cook for large groups. These cookers rely entirely on electrical components, as we do not work on gas cookers or gas hobs. When a large cooking unit develops a fault, it usually isolates to a specific section. If the main or secondary oven stops heating while the indicator lights stay on, the fan element has likely failed. Grill and hob faults can stem from degraded heating zones or faulty energy regulators behind the control knobs. Thermostats control the internal temperature, and when these drift out of calibration, food burns or remains undercooked. Sometimes, an internal component degrades and creates a short circuit to earth, which causes the appliance to trip the household electrics as soon as a particular function is selected. Whether a repair is needed near the town centre or across the water in Polruan, we test the appliance directly in your home. Our visits cover checking main and secondary ovens that fail to heat, inspecting controls and cooling fans, and testing thermostats. We also trace electrical faults when a range cooker trips the circuit breakers, examining the internal wiring, selector switches and heating elements to locate the exact point of failure.
