Outside of deep cleaning your oven and keeping your stovetop sparkling, you should not attempt DIY oven repairs, especially if you have a gas oven.  Even the most straightforward repair can be dangerous if not done correctly, and that’s not a risk worth taking. It’s always best to hire an oven repair specialist to assess the repair needed for your oven and appropriately (and safely) take care of it for you. 

With proper cleaning and maintenance, most ovens last 15 to 20 years. When it comes to longevity, ovens are one of the more enduring appliances. That's because ovens don't have as many moving parts as other popular large appliances, like dishwashers and washing machines, so they don't wear out as quickly.

Choosing the right appliance installation company involves finding an installer with a positive reputation among past customers, works with your specific appliances, and won’t void your manufacturer’s warranty. We recommend you ask the following questions to any installer you’re considering hiring:

• Are you fully insured?

• Can you handle the gas line or water line connection I need?

• Are you certified by my appliance manufacturer for installation?

• Do you have any customer references I can call?

• How many years have you been in business?

• Do you offer discounts if I need multiple appliances installed?

The cost to have a microwave vent installed starts around $150, but may exceed $300 if you have to cut through cabinets or install a new line to your ductwork. This is another reason tackling the project DIY can totally be worth it from a financial standpoint if you're willing to do the labor yourself.
