We repair the microwaves that are part of the kitchen: over-the-range units, built-in wall microwaves, microwave drawers and speed ovens. In the Uptown, Lake Merritt and Jack London condos most kitchens have an over-the-range microwave that doubles as the range hood, so when it dies you lose the vent fan and light too.

Rockridge and Montclair remodels often have a Sharp or Monogram microwave drawer in the island, or a combination wall oven with a microwave on top. Those are worth fixing. A small countertop microwave usually is not, and we will tell you so.

We come out to Uptown, Lake Merritt, Jack London, Rockridge, Montclair, Grand Lake and the rest of Oakland.

Common microwave problems we fix in Oakland

Runs but doesn't heat

A failed magnetron, high-voltage diode or capacitor, or a door switch. These are high-voltage parts, so do not open the cabinet yourself.

Microwave drawer won't open or close

A drawer motor, gear or rail problem, common on island drawers that get bumped.

Vent fan or light out on an over-the-range unit

Fan motor, light socket or the control. We can often fix the fan even if the cooking side is fine.

Sparks inside

Worn waveguide cover or chipped cavity paint. Stop using it until it is checked.

Before you call

Check the breaker and try a different setting. If the touchpad does nothing, turn off the breaker for a minute and turn it back on. If it sparks or smells burnt, stop using it.

Microwave repair questions

How much does microwave repair in Oakland cost?

Microwave repairs start from $250 for built-in, drawer and over-the-range models. The $219 service call is free if you go ahead with the repair.

Is it worth fixing a built-in microwave?

Usually yes. A built-in or drawer microwave costs a lot to replace and match to the cabinet, so a repair often makes sense.

Do you fix countertop microwaves?

Generally no. A countertop microwave usually costs less to replace than to repair.

Can I replace the magnetron myself?

Please do not. Microwaves store high voltage even when unplugged. Let a trained tech handle it.
