Common Oven Problems We Fix
Gas vs Electric Oven Repairs
Electric Oven Repairs
Electric ovens use bake and broil elements to generate heat. The bake element sits at the bottom of the oven cavity, and the broil element sits at the top. Both can burn out — the failure is usually visible as a crack, hole, or burnt spot in the element coil. When an element fails, the oven either doesn't heat at all or only heats from one direction, leading to uneven cooking.
The oven temperature sensor is another common failure point. This thin probe inside the oven cavity measures temperature and sends feedback to the control board. When it drifts or fails, the oven can run 25 to 50 degrees off its set temperature — often for months before anyone notices, because the food results change gradually. Sensor replacement is a straightforward same-day repair.
Gas Oven Repairs
Gas ovens use an igniter to light the burner. The igniter glows bright orange to heat a sensor that opens the gas valve. When the igniter weakens, it still glows — but not hot enough to open the valve. The oven clicks on, the igniter glows for 90 seconds, and nothing lights. This is the most common gas oven failure we see in Edmonton.
Gas surface burners on a range use a spark igniter to light the flame. When a burner won't light, the cause is usually a dirty or cracked igniter, a blocked burner cap, or a faulty spark module. We test each component to find the specific failure.
Gas Safety
If you smell gas near your oven or range, do not attempt to light it and do not turn on any electrical switches. Leave the home and call your gas provider from outside. Once the gas supply is confirmed safe, call us to assess the appliance. We are certified to work on gas appliances and can identify valve leaks, flexible connector issues, and gas control failures.
Wall Oven Repair in Edmonton
Built-in wall ovens from brands like Wolf, Thermador, Miele, Dacor, KitchenAid, and Bosch require the same repair expertise as freestanding ranges, with an additional complexity: they're built into the cabinetry, which means some repairs require more disassembly. We service all wall oven configurations including single, double, and steam wall ovens.
Convection Oven Repairs
Convection ovens add a fan and additional heating element to circulate hot air. When the convection fan motor fails, the oven still heats but loses the even-temperature advantage convection provides. Baked goods may brown on one side. The fan motor is a common repair on Wolf M-Series, Bosch 800 Series, and Miele ovens.
Temperature Calibration
An oven that consistently runs hot or cold is more common than most people realize. If your baked goods are always overcooked on the same setting, or your roasts take significantly longer than recipes suggest, calibration may be off. A properly calibrated oven should reach within 10°F of its set temperature and maintain it steadily. We test oven temperature accuracy as part of every oven service call and can recalibrate or replace the temperature sensor as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
My oven is running 50 degrees too hot — is that fixable?
Yes, and it's a common problem. The temperature sensor is usually the cause. Replacement is a straightforward same-day repair. You can confirm the issue by placing an accurate oven thermometer inside while the oven preheats and comparing the reading to the set temperature.
Can you repair an oven's self-clean feature?
Yes. Self-clean failures are usually related to the door latch mechanism, the thermal fuse, or the control board. The door latch locks during self-clean to prevent opening at high temperatures — when it fails, the cycle won't start or won't complete.
My gas burner keeps clicking even after it's lit — what's wrong?
This is almost always caused by moisture in the igniter. Food spills, steam, or a recent cleaning can leave moisture in the igniter well that causes continuous clicking. Allow the burner area to dry out completely. If clicking persists, the spark module or igniter may need replacement.
Do you work on high-end ranges like Wolf and Thermador?
Yes. We service professional-grade cooking appliances from Wolf, Thermador, BlueStar, Dacor, and Jenn-Air. These brands require specific knowledge and parts that we're prepared to work with.
How long does oven repair take?
Most oven repairs are completed in 45 to 90 minutes. Element replacements and sensor swaps are quick. Control board replacements take longer. If parts need to be ordered, we complete the repair on a return visit as soon as they arrive.

My gas burner keeps clicking after it is lit — what causes that?
Continuous clicking after the burner is lit is almost always caused by moisture from a spill or recent cleaning. Allow the burner area to dry completely overnight with the cap removed. If clicking persists when completely dry the spark module needs replacement.

Yes. We service professional-grade cooking appliances from Wolf, Thermador, BlueStar, Dacor, and Jenn-Air. These brands require specific knowledge and parts that our technicians are prepared to work with.
Is it safe to use my oven if only the broil element works?
You can use the broil function but not bake. Running the oven with a failed bake element for extended periods can stress the control board. We recommend getting the element replaced promptly — it is one of the faster repairs we complete.
