Professional Oven & Microwave Repair Edmonton | Same-Day Service
City Appliance provides same-day repair for gas, electric, and microwave ovens across Edmonton. Our certified technicians diagnose common failures such as ovens not heating, sparking microwaves, and broken door seals using OEM parts and specialized diagnostic tools. We service all major brands, including Samsung, LG, and Whirlpool, with localized support in Mill Woods, Windermere, and Sherwood Park.
Specialized Microwave Oven Repair Service
Microwave repair is often a high-precision alternative to expensive replacement, especially for built-in or over-the-range (OTR) units. We focus on the internal components that govern radiation safety and heating efficiency.
Built-in & Over-the-Range (OTR) Microwave Repair
Mounting and venting issues are common in Edmonton kitchens. We handle the specialized hardware needed for OTR units, including heavy-duty mounting brackets, vent filters, and grease screens. Whether your unit is integrated into cabinetry or sits above a gas range, we ensure the exhaust and electrical housing meet local Alberta building codes.
Technical Micro Oven Repair and Component Service
We diagnose failures at the component level to avoid unnecessary part swapping. This includes testing the Magnetron for vacuum integrity and checking high-voltage capacitors and diodes for electrical leaks.
- Critical Fixes: We replace burnt waveguide covers to stop arcing (sparking) and install new stirrer motors or turntable couplers when rotation fails.
- Interlock Safety: Every service includes a test of the door interlock switches and membrane keypads to ensure the unit only operates when fully sealed.
Critical Diagnostics: Solving "Oven Not Heating" and Other Failures
We prioritize the specific symptoms that disrupt your cooking. Our diagnostic process identifies the root cause within the first 20 minutes of arrival.
Why Your Oven Won't Turn On or Heat Up
A dead oven typically stems from a failure in the power supply or safety circuit. We check for blown thermal fuses, tripped high-limit switches, and faulty electronic control boards (PCBs). By testing the ohmic resistance of your sensors, we determine if the issue is a simple wiring fix or a full board restoration.
Oven Door Repairs Edmonton: Seals, Hinges, and Glass
Heat loss through a poorly sealed door increases energy costs and ruins bake quality. We provide onsite replacement for gasket seals, spring hinges, and inner door glass. We also fix door latches and strike plates to ensure the self-cleaning cycle engages safely.
Oven Thermostat Repair and Calibration Issues
If your oven temperature fluctuates, your temperature sensor probe is likely faulty. We perform precision calibration using thermal probes to sync your dial with the actual internal cavity temperature, ensuring your thermostat bulb or digital sensor accurately triggers the heating cycle.
Commercial Oven Repair for Edmonton Businesses
A malfunctioning oven in a high-volume Edmonton kitchen is a direct threat to your bottom line. We provide emergency commercial oven repair to minimize downtime for restaurants and industrial facilities. Our service focuses on the heavy-duty components designed for 12 to 18-hour daily cycles, ensuring your equipment meets Alberta Building Codes and NFPA 96 fire safety standards. From replacing solid-state relays and heavy-duty thermostats to installing industrial door gaskets that stop heat bleed, we restore thermal efficiency across all platforms.
We specialize in the complex ignition sequences of gas ranges including thermopiles, safety gas valves, and spark modules and provide specialized descaling and repair for combi-steam generators. Whether you operate a Viking, Hobart, Vulcan, or Blodgett, our technical support ensures your line remains operational and energy-compliant.

Frequently Asked Questions
We answer the most common questions Edmonton homeowners ask when their cooking appliances fail. Our goal is to provide clear, honest advice so you can make the best decision for your home.
1. How quickly can I get an oven repair in Edmonton?
We offer same-day service for most calls placed before 12:00 PM. Our trucks are mobile warehouses, carrying the most common parts for brands like Samsung, LG, and Whirlpool to ensure immediate, one-visit fixes.
2. Is it cost-effective to perform a microwave oven repair?
For built-in or over-the-range (OTR) microwaves, repair is almost always cheaper than the cost of a new unit plus the labor of unmounting and reinstalling. If your unit is less than 10 years old, a simple part replacement usually saves you hundreds.
3. Are your technicians certified for Alberta gas standards?
Yes. Our team is fully insured and trained to meet all local safety codes for gas and electric appliance restoration. We ensure every gas connection is leak-tested and compliant with Edmonton safety regulations.
4. What is the most common reason an oven stops heating?
In electric ovens, it is usually a burnt-out bake element or a blown thermal fuse. For gas ovens, a faulty igniter is the #1 culprit. Both are standard repairs that we can typically complete on the spot.
5. Why is my microwave sparking inside?
Sparking (or arcing) is often caused by a burnt waveguide cover or food buildup on the interior walls. It looks scary, but it’s often a simple, low-cost fix that prevents damage to the expensive magnetron.
6. Do you offer a warranty on your repair services?
Absolutely. We provide a full warranty on both parts and labor. We stand behind our work because we use high-quality OEM parts designed to last in busy Edmonton kitchens.
7. How do I know if I should repair or replace my oven?
We follow the "50% Rule": if the repair cost is more than half the price of a new, similar model, we may recommend replacement. However, for high-end or built-in units, repair is almost always the smarter financial move.
8. Can you fix oven doors that won't close properly?
Yes. We specialize in replacing worn-out hinges and door gaskets. A properly sealed door is essential for maintaining even temperatures and keeping your energy bills low during Alberta's cold winters.
