When to repair, when to replace. If your oven is under seven years old and the quote is under 40% of a new equivalent, repair is almost always the right call. Above that, or if the same part has failed twice in eighteen months, it is worth pricing a replacement. We tell you honestly — if a repair will not last, we say so.
Brand matters for parts. European brands (Bosch, Siemens, Miele, AEG) usually have parts in Dubai within 48 hours. Some higher-end Miele and Gaggenau parts may need to be imported, which adds 5 to 10 working days. We keep common heating elements, door seals and thermostats for the top eight brands in stock, so most jobs finish on the first visit.
Commercial vs residential pricing. A restaurant convection oven or a hotel combi oven works with different tolerances and safety standards than a home oven. Commercial jobs are priced by scope after a site survey rather than a fixed hourly rate. We prioritise food-service sites because we understand what a cold oven costs a kitchen during service.
