Preheat takes forever, then the cookies burn on one side. Or the oven never reaches temperature, the broiler stays dark, and the display flashes a code you've never seen. We test bake and broil elements, igniters, gas valves, sensors and control boards, and we verify actual cavity temperature instead of trusting the dial. Dinner plans in San Jose shouldn't hinge on guesswork. We're an independent shop working on all major brands, gas and electric. Describe the smell if there is one. Call us or complete the quote form and we'll bring the likely parts along.
Taking calls until 5:00 PM PT

We cover San Jose ZIPs like 95110, 95111, 95112, and 95113, plus nearby Santa Clara and Sunnyvale.
Elements weaken before they fail outright, and sensors drift as they age. A crushed door gasket also lets heat leak from one corner. We measure sensor resistance cold, then watch the temperature swing through a full cycle to find which one shifted.
No. That is the most common mistaken assumption in gas ovens. The igniter must draw enough current to trip the safety valve open. It can glow bright and still fall short. We test amperage rather than judging by color.
If you smell gas, stop and shut the supply valve. If a burning smell or sparking is present, turn off the breaker. Uneven heating alone is not dangerous, though results will stay unpredictable until we correct it.
Sometimes. A wall oven often needs to be unmounted from the cabinet to reach the rear panel, and that takes care with the surrounding trim. We plan for it and protect your cabinetry and flooring while the unit is out.
Call us and we'll give you the next open window we have for your part of the city. Downtown and central ZIPs are often same-week. Bring us the brand and model number if you can find the tag, since that helps us load likely parts before we drive out.
Call us or fill out the form. Describe what you hear, smell or see. Odd noise, standing water, no heat. Have the model number handy if you can reach it.
Pick a window that fits your day. We confirm the address and ask a few questions first, so the van carries parts that commonly fail on your machine.
Our technician tests the machine, explains what failed, and lays out the repair options. Many jobs finish the same visit. Special-order parts get scheduled before we leave.
Ask these of anyone you let into your home — us included. Call and we'll answer all five before you book anything.
Describe the fault, approve the written quote, get it fixed. Starting takes about a minute.
