FAQS
Microwave Repair Questions
Can you repair my microwave if it's still under warranty?
Yes. We can repair microwaves still under manufacturer’s warranty. For the repair to be covered under warranty, contact the manufacturer directly and request a work order confirming warranty coverage and authorisation. Once we receive the valid work order, we’ll proceed with the warranty repair.
If you prefer to proceed without a manufacturer’s work order, we’re happy to repair your microwave on a chargeable basis. Either way, our repairs won’t void your manufacturer’s warranty when carried out to manufacturer repair standards.
How much does a microwave repair typically cost?
Microwave repair costs vary depending on the specific issue. Turntable motor replacement or door seal repair may be relatively low-cost. Magnetron or transformer replacement can be more substantial. The best way to get an accurate quote is to call us on 1300-434-380 for a free phone consultation. We’ll discuss your issue and provide ballpark costs before scheduling your appointment.
Can you fix my microwave today?
Is it worth repairing an older microwave, or should I replace it?
This depends on repair costs versus replacement value and age of the appliance. Turntable or button repairs on a newer microwave are usually worth fixing. A magnetron failure on a 10-year-old microwave might make replacement more economical. Our technicians can assess your situation and provide an honest recommendation during inspection.
Why does my microwave need a professional? Can't I fix it myself?
Microwave repairs involve high-voltage electrical components and microwave radiation hazards. DIY attempts risk electrical shock, radiation exposure, burns, and voided warranties. The internal components operate at lethal voltage levels even when unplugged. Professional repair ensures safety, proper diagnosis, and lasting fixes. Our technicians are trained on all microwave types and carry genuine parts.
How long does a typical microwave repair take?
Most microwave repairs take 1-2 hours if parts are in stock. Simple repairs like door latch replacement or turntable motor swap may be faster. Complex repairs involving magnetron or control board replacement can take longer. We’ll provide a time estimate during your assessment.
Is it safe to use my microwave if it's sparking?
No. If you see sparking inside your microwave, stop using it immediately. Sparking indicates an electrical fault or damaged components and poses fire and electrical hazards. Call us on 1300-434-380 for urgent service. Do not attempt to repair it yourself.
Can you install a new microwave if mine can't be repaired?
Yes. If replacement is the best option, we supply, install, and remove your old microwave, so you get a seamless, hassle-free experience. We can discuss microwave options and pricing during your service call.
