Oven not heating? Local repair in Croydon
A cold oven in a working kitchen is urgent, so this is the job we schedule fastest in Croydon. The cause is nearly always a failed element, a thermostat that no longer switches, or a selector switch with a dead output.

Where we work · Croydon
Covering Croydon, South Croydon, Purley, Thornton Heath, Norbury, Selhurst and Selsdon, usually with a next-day slot.
What we test
- Fan and grill elements tested individually for continuity and current
- Thermostat and thermal cut-out checked against the dial setting
- Selector switch and control board tested for a live output at each function
- Element terminal block inspected for heat damage and arcing
- Oven run up to temperature and checked with a thermometer
Two things worth checking first
- 1
Set the oven to manual
An auto or delayed-start setting left on will stop the element being energised. Clear the timer and try again before booking.
- 2
Try the grill
If the grill heats and the oven does not, only that circuit has failed, which is useful to know and usually a straightforward element.
- 3
Stop resetting a tripping oven
If the oven takes the fuse board out when it heats, an element is leaking to earth. Repeated resets risk the board and the wiring.
Questions we get asked
Can you come tomorrow in Croydon?
Usually yes. Croydon is our home patch and no-heat oven calls get priority, with same-day and emergency slots available.
Do you carry oven elements?
Common fan and grill elements for Bosch, Neff, Hotpoint, Beko, AEG and Indesit are on the van; others are sourced quickly.
Is it cheaper to replace the oven?
Usually not. An element or thermostat is a modest part on an otherwise sound oven. We will say if the fault is serious enough to change that advice.
