Cooker Repair Services
Every cooker fault we fix — gas, electric & dual-fuel
10 services, from minor ignition faults to full oven overhauls, each carried out on-site wherever possible.
Bestcare Appliance Repair provides expert cooker repair in Nairobi for households and commercial kitchens. Our technicians diagnose the issue on-site and repair it on the spot wherever possible.
SERVICE 01
Gas Cooker Repair
Gas cookers are the backbone of most Nairobi kitchens, and the appliances most likely to develop safety issues if left unattended. We inspect burner heads, clear blocked jets, test for leaks with proper detection equipment and correct uneven or weak flames. Every job ends with a full leak check.
Covers: burner faults, gas leaks, ignition failure, uneven flames
SERVICE 02
Electric Cooker Repair
We test heating elements for continuity, check the control board for burnt components and inspect wiring for damage. Typical fixes include a hotplate that won't heat, a cooker that trips the circuit breaker, or a display that won't respond.
Covers: heating element faults, control board issues, power failure
SERVICE 03
Oven Repair
An oven that bakes unevenly or won't heat usually points to a faulty element, a broken thermostat or a damaged door seal. We run a full diagnostic, replace the affected part, and also fix oven fan faults, a common cause of uneven baking in convection ovens.
Covers: uneven baking, no heat, faulty thermostat, door seal issues
SERVICE 04
Cooker Ignition & Spark Repair
A cooker that clicks endlessly without lighting usually has a worn igniter, a faulty spark module or grime around the ignition point. We clean, test and replace ignition components, restoring reliable one-click lighting.
Covers: clicking without lighting, dead igniters, spark module faults
SERVICE 05
Cooktop & Hob Repair
From cracked glass-ceramic tops to faulty knobs and unresponsive induction coils, we repair or replace damaged surfaces, fix loose or broken knobs and diagnose induction coil faults with specialised testing tools, with no need for a full cooker replacement.
Covers: cracked glass tops, faulty knobs, induction coil faults
SERVICE 06
Thermostat Replacement
A faulty thermostat is one of the most common reasons food comes out undercooked or burnt despite correct settings. We test accuracy against actual oven temperature and replace units that read incorrectly or have failed.
Covers: inaccurate temperature, overheating, undercooking
SERVICE 07
Gas Line & Regulator Check
We inspect regulators, hoses and connection points for wear, corrosion or leaks and replace anything that falls below safety standards. Especially important for cylinder gas, where regulator faults often cause weak or inconsistent flames.
Covers: leak detection, regulator replacement, hose inspection
SERVICE 08
Built-In Cooker Installation & Repair
Built-in cookers need precise fitting and wiring. We handle new installations and repairs on existing units, correcting alignment, wiring and ventilation problems that surface after installation by other contractors.
Covers: fitting, alignment, wiring, post-installation faults
SERVICE 09
Cooker Timer & Control Panel Repair
When buttons stop responding, displays go blank or timers malfunction, we diagnose whether it's the control board, the ribbon connector or the panel itself, and repair or replace accordingly.
Covers: unresponsive buttons, display faults, timer errors
SERVICE 10
Preventive Maintenance Service
Our maintenance visits include burner and element cleaning, gas leak checks, thermostat calibration and a general inspection to catch small issues before they become costly repairs.
Covers: cleaning, calibration and inspection to avoid breakdowns
Why It Matters
Cooker problems that can't wait
Cooker faults rarely fix themselves. Prompt professional repair keeps your kitchen safe, protects your food and prevents small issues becoming expensive ones.
A real safety risk
A hissing hob or a gas smell means a leak somewhere. Gas faults left unattended are the ones most likely to turn dangerous.
Wasted food and fuel
A faulty thermostat or uneven flame leaves food undercooked or burnt, and wastes gas and electricity in the process.
A kitchen that stops
For homes it means no meals at the usual time; for restaurants and hotels it means lost service and unhappy customers.
Costlier repairs later
A small fault left alone can become a control board job. Replacing a board can cost KES 8,000 – 20,000 against 4,000 – 10,000 to repair.

Symptoms We Fix
Recognise the problem? We have fixed it before
These are the cooker faults our technicians see most often, and what usually causes them.
Clicks but won't light
Usually a worn igniter, a faulty spark module or grime built up at the ignition point. We clean, test and replace what's needed.
Oven heats unevenly or not at all
Often a faulty heating element, a broken thermostat, a failed oven fan or a door seal letting heat escape.
Hisses or smells of gas
Turn off the gas supply immediately and avoid any ignition source. Do not use the cooker until a technician has inspected and fixed the leak.
Food burnt or undercooked on the right setting
A thermostat reading incorrectly is the most common cause. We test it against actual oven temperature and replace it if it has failed.
Hotplate won't heat or trips the breaker
Typically a failed heating element, damaged wiring or a faulty control board. We test each component to find the fault.
Buttons, display or timer unresponsive
Often a faulty control board, a damaged ribbon connector or moisture damage. Diagnosed on-site, then repaired or replaced.

Frequently asked questions
Straight answers to what customers ask before booking a cooker repair: response times, safety, parts, costs and guarantees.
How fast can a technician reach me after I call?
Most requests within Nairobi County are attended to on the same day, often within a few hours of the call, depending on location and technician availability.
Do you repair both gas and electric cookers?
Yes, our technicians handle gas, electric and dual-fuel cookers, including built-in and freestanding models.
Is it safe to keep using a cooker that smells of gas?
No. Turn off the gas supply immediately and avoid using any ignition source until a technician has inspected and fixed the leak.
Do you carry spare parts with you, or do I need to source them?
Technicians carry common spare parts for popular brands. For less common or imported models, parts may need to be sourced, which can add a day or two to the repair.
How much does a typical cooker repair cost?
Simple repairs like burner or ignition fixes often fall between KES 1,500 and 3,500, while more involved repairs such as control board or heating element replacement can range higher, as shown in the pricing table above.
Can you fix a built-in oven without removing it from the kitchen unit?
In most cases, yes. Repairs are done in place unless the fault requires full removal for safe access.
Do you offer any guarantee on repairs?
Yes, repairs and replaced parts are covered by a service guarantee, with the exact terms confirmed at the time of service.
My cooker's control panel buttons aren't responding, what's wrong?
This is often caused by a faulty control board, a damaged ribbon connector, or moisture damage. A technician will diagnose the exact cause on-site.
Do you service commercial kitchens as well as homes?
Yes, we service both residential and commercial kitchens, including restaurants, hotels, and institutional kitchens across Nairobi County.
How often should I schedule preventive maintenance for my cooker?
For households, once or twice a year is generally sufficient. Commercial kitchens with heavier daily use benefit from more frequent servicing, typically every three to four months.
