Common Microwave Issues We Repair

If your microwave isn’t working properly, here are some common signs it needs professional service:
• Microwave won’t turn on – This could be caused by a blown fuse, bad door switch, or faulty control board.
• Not heating food – Often due to a failed magnetron, high-voltage diode, or capacitor.
• Turntable not spinning – A broken motor or damaged roller guide may be the issue.
• Sparking inside the microwave – This can indicate metal objects, a damaged waveguide, or food residue buildup.
• Unusual noises during operation – Humming, buzzing, or clicking may point to motor or fan problems.
• Display not working or buttons unresponsive – Often caused by faulty control panels or touchpad issues.
• Microwave runs but doesn’t stop – A stuck relay or control board failure can cause this.
• Door not closing properly – A misaligned or broken latch can make the microwave unsafe to operate.
• Burning smell or smoke – This may signal a dangerous internal failure and should be addressed immediately.

Over 100+ 5-Star Reviews

My fridge stopped working, so I called this company and was booked an appointment for the next day. Nick came out, quickly figured out the issue, and fixed it that day. My fridge has been working great since, and he saved me a bunch of money. 10/10 service. I highly recommend it for anyone with appliance issues.

Colleen Troy

Nick was great, a life saver. I needed someone to disconnect a dishwasher and gas range and then return to install new ones. The gas connection was a little tricky, but he figured it out. There was also an unusual situation with the water connection for the dishwasher that he managed as well. Nick is a really nice, knowledgeable, and conscientious guy with a good work ethic. Heâ s attentive and good at communicating. I couldnâ t be happier and recommend him highly.

Stephen B.

If I could give Nick 10 stars, I would! He was an absolute pleasure to interact with...friendly, super knowledgeable, and willing to tack on a diagnostic of my dryer after he was finished repairing my stove. I would not hesitate to contact him in the future and utilize his services for my next appliance repair need.

Teresa S.

Nick is great, squeezed me in the day after I called when I wasn't expecting him for a few more days! Was able to diagnose the issue quickly with my fridge and saved me from having to buy a new one! All for a super reasonable price. Will definitely be my go-to appliance repairman from now on!
