Microwave Repair for Built-In & Countertop Units

We repair both built-in and countertop microwaves for all major brands, including Samsung, LG, GE, Whirlpool and more, with safety-checked repairs every time.

If the microwave is part of a combination range hood, see our range hood repair page for ventilation issues.

What We Fix

Common Microwave Problems We Repair

Microwave Not Heating

A failed magnetron, diode, or capacitor are the most common causes of a microwave that runs but does not heat.

Sparking or Arcing Inside

This needs immediate attention and often points to a damaged waveguide cover or metal debris inside.

Turntable Won't Turn

A worn turntable motor or a misaligned roller guide usually stops the plate from spinning.

Keypad or Display Not Working

A failing control board or a worn membrane keypad can make buttons unresponsive.

Microwave Runs but Timer Won't Count Down

Often a control board issue that still allows power but not proper timing.

Door Won't Latch Properly

A damaged door latch is a safety issue, since the microwave will not run with the door unlatched.

Safety Note

Sparking Inside Means Stop Using It

If you see sparks or arcing inside your microwave, unplug it and stop using it until a technician inspects it.

Most other microwave issues are safe to schedule normally, and repairs are often cheaper than replacing a built-in unit.

Common Questions

Microwave Repair FAQ

Why does my microwave run but not heat food?

A failed magnetron, diode, or capacitor are the most common causes. A technician can test each component safely.

Is it dangerous if my microwave sparks inside?

Yes, stop using it right away. Sparking can indicate a damaged waveguide cover or metal debris, and continuing to use it can cause further damage.

Is it worth repairing a built-in microwave?

Often yes, since built-in units can be expensive to replace. Most repairs cost a fraction of a new unit.

How much does microwave repair cost?

Pricing depends on which part your microwave needs replaced. A small diagnostic fee applies, typically applied to the final bill, with an upfront quote before work begins.

Do you repair both countertop and built-in microwaves?

Yes, we repair both countertop and built-in microwave models for all major brands.
