I am a Journeyman Union Carpenter by trade but after 15 years left it to pursue other things. I have had rental properties and done hundreds of property rehabs and remodels over the years. I have a working knowledge of plumbing and electrical and I take pride in my work. I also rehab and refinish antique wood furniture and build custom furniture out of old wood and recycled materials. No job is too small and I enjoy meeting all the people that this kind of work leads me too.

Small Appliance Repair questions, answered by experts

Most microwaves last for around eight years; lower-end units may last as few as five, while higher-end microwaves could continue to work for ten or more years. A few factors will affect the lifespan of your small appliance:

  • How many people in your home use the appliance

  • How often you use the microwave

  • Brand and quality

  • Whether or not you maintain it properly

  • Style of microwave

  • Professional or DIY installation

Whether or not it’s safe to use a buzzing microwave depends on what’s causing the noise. If a loose fastener or a dirty cooling fan is the underlying issue, it’s safe to use your microwave, although you may do damage to the fan motor if you don’t clean the blades first. If the issue is stemming from something else, you could do further damage to your appliance and potentially even start a house fire if you don’t repair it before continued use. If the microwave is buzzing when not in use, shut the power and call an emergency electrician, as this could lead to a fire.

It’s usually safe to use a microwave if the plate isn’t spinning. You may experience unevenly heated food and cold spots, but you’re unlikely to run into major problems like total appliance failure or a fire. You can try diagnosing the issue yourself, but you should contact a small appliance repair company if you can’t figure out what’s causing the problem.

The magnetron is one of the most common components to fail first in a microwave. When the magnetron fails, the microwave can no longer heat food. Other frequently failing parts include the door switch, which prevents the microwave from operating if the door is not securely closed, the light bulb, and control panel buttons that may stop responding over time.

Microwave repairs cost an average of $175, and most repairs fall between $100 and $200. Minor repairs, like replacing a broken diode or glass plate, can cost as little as $50, while major repairs like a door replacement can total between $400 and $500. In some cases, it’s more affordable to replace the entire microwave than it is to carry out repairs, especially if it’s nearing the end of its life.
