Microwaves quit in a few predictable ways. The magnetron gives out, so the plate spins but nothing heats. A door switch fails and the unit goes dead. Control boards take a hit after a summer lightning surge. Humid coastal air corrodes wiring and grounds. Turntable motors seize. Over-the-range units lose their vent fan or their light. When we come out, we open the cabinet, discharge the high-voltage capacitor, and test the components that actually matter instead of guessing. You hear what failed and whether repair makes sense for that unit. Countertop, built-in, or over-the-range, we work on all major brands as an independent shop. Call us and tell us what the microwave is doing.
Taking calls until 5:00 PM ET
Worth a look before you call — sometimes it saves you the visit.
Often yes, especially built-in and over-the-range units that match your cabinets. Countertop models with a failed magnetron are a closer call. We tell you what part failed and let you decide before we order anything.
The capacitor inside holds a dangerous charge even after unplugging. It has to be discharged with the right tool before anything is touched. That single fact is why microwave work belongs with a trained tech.
Yes. Florida storms push surges through house wiring, and the control board is usually the first casualty. The unit may go completely dark or show scrambled digits. Board replacement fixes many of these.
We do. Those add a vent fan, grease filters, and a cooktop light to the mix. Removing one takes two people and care with the mounting plate, so leave it hanging until we arrive.
All major residential brands. We are an independent family company, not tied to any manufacturer, so we handle whatever is mounted in your kitchen and source parts from standard suppliers.
Stop using it. That smell usually means arcing inside the cavity or a scorched wire connection. Both can spread. Unplug the unit and call us rather than running another cycle to test it.
Describe what you see, hear, or smell. Buzzing, leaking, burning, or dead silence. Model number helps if you can find the sticker. We ask a few questions and book a window that fits your day.
A technician comes to your kitchen or laundry room, tests the machine, and finds the actual failed part. You hear what went wrong in plain words, then decide whether repair or replacement makes better sense.
With your approval we complete the work, then run the appliance through a real cycle before packing up. Floors get wiped, packaging leaves with us, and you get care tips for our salt air and storms.
Ask these of anyone you let into your home — us included. Call and we'll answer all five before you book anything.
Describe the symptoms and we'll book the visit — takes about a minute.
