Same-day and next-day service across all of Abilene. Licensed and insured.
An oven that will not heat can wreck a holiday meal or a normal weeknight dinner. Maybe it will not reach temperature, bakes unevenly, or the door stays locked after a cleaning cycle. Our oven repair Abilene team gets your oven baking right again fast, usually the same day or the next, with an upfront price before any work starts.
We fix every kind of oven, from freestanding gas and electric ranges to built-in wall units and double ovens. Gas and electric ovens fail in different ways, so we diagnose each on its own path. We repair Whirlpool, GE, Frigidaire, Maytag, Samsung, LG, KitchenAid, Kenmore, Amana, and Bosch, including built-in and higher-end models that need brand-specific parts.
Property managers and businesses can ask about priority scheduling.
It depends on whether you have gas or electric. On a gas oven, a weak igniter is the top cause of no heat. The igniter glows to reach the temperature that opens the gas valve, and as it ages it glows dimly and never triggers the gas, so the oven clicks but will not light. On an electric oven, a burned-out bake element is the usual fix, since elements crack or blister after five to ten years of use. Both are common repairs and neither means you need a whole new oven.
If food keeps coming out raw or burnt at the right setting, the sensor is usually the reason, and that is an easy fix.
This is the oven complaint we hear most, and the cause surprises people. When cookies brown on one side, cakes rise lopsided, or a casserole is done in back but pale in front, the oven still "works," so it is easy to blame the recipe. Most of the time the real issue is the temperature sensor.
That thin metal probe at the back of the oven tells the control board when to turn the heat on and off. When it drifts or gets coated in grease, the oven runs cooler or hotter than the display shows. A quick test is to set the oven to 350 degrees, put an oven thermometer inside, and check it after 30 minutes. If the real reading is off by more than 25 degrees, the sensor needs replacing or recalibrating.
Most repairs land between $150 and $400, with a national average near $250 according to Sears Home Services. Element and igniter jobs sit lower, while a control board runs the highest. We charge a flat diagnostic fee, commonly $75 to $100, and it goes toward your repair when you book with us.

Ranges reflect 2026 national data from HomeGuide, Angi, and Sears Home Services. Your final quote depends on the brand, the part, and whether the oven is gas or electric.
Most of the time, yes. A good rule of thumb is the 50% rule: if the repair costs more than half the price of a comparable new oven, replace it. Ovens last about 15 years on average, and even 15 to 20 with good care.
A $200 igniter or a $250 element on a 10-year-old oven saves you the $700 to $1,600 a new range would cost. The one clear exception is a failed control board on an oven past 15 years, where other electronic parts may follow within a year or two. When we look at yours, we give you an honest answer, even when that means telling you to replace it.
Leave any gas line, igniter, or wiring work to a trained tech. If you smell gas, turn off the gas supply, leave the house, and call your gas company first.
Most jobs run $150 to $400, with a national average near $250. A flat diagnostic fee of $75 to $100 applies and goes toward the repair when you book.
An appliance repair tech handles igniters, elements, sensors, and control boards. We cover all of Abilene with same-day and next-day service.
Common causes are a tripped breaker, a blown igniter, a burned-out element, a bad thermal fuse, or a failed control board. A quick diagnosis points to the exact part.
Usually, yes. At seven years an oven is under half its expected life, so most repairs are well worth it unless the fix is a costly control board.
About 15 years, and up to 20 with regular care. Gas ovens often last a little longer than electric.
Repair is cheaper when the cost stays under half the price of a new oven, especially on units under about ten years old.
