Gas Oven Repair – Get Your Oven Cooking Again
Nothing stops you faster than a gas oven that won’t heat. Whether you’re prepping a family dinner or just need a quick bake, a faulty oven throws your plans off. The good news? Most gas oven issues are simple enough to fix without ripping the kitchen apart, and our South Shields team knows exactly how to do it.
Common Gas Oven Problems
First, let’s talk about the typical culprits. The most frequent complaints are:
- No spark or flame: The igniter may be dirty or burnt out, or the gas supply valve could be closed.
- Uneven heating: A faulty thermostat or a broken temperature sensor often causes hot spots.
- Oven won’t turn on: Check the power cord, the circuit breaker, and the oven’s safety lock.
- Flame goes out during cooking: A clogged burner or a weak gas pressure can cause this.
Most of these problems can be diagnosed with a quick visual check and a multimeter test. If you’re comfortable turning off the gas and electricity, you can even clean the burner ports yourself – a soft brush works wonders.
But if the igniter is cracked or the thermostat is dead, it’s safest to call a pro. Replacing these parts usually takes under an hour, and we carry the right components for all major UK brands.
