"Jacob and Cody have been amazing to work with. We originally hired them to repair our stairs and have since contracted with them to install our kitchen tile floor, install electric in our kitchen island and to repair some of our drywall. Their team is very professional, their estimates are accurate and they do quality work. We plan to hire them again when we remodel our bathrooms."

"Chris and Manny were great!! I was having a microwave replaced in a rental unit. I dropped a new microwave off with my tenant and Chris worked with him to schedule an installation date. The guys even took it upon themselves to bring me the old microwave when meeting me for payment after the install; saving me a 40 mile round-trip. Will definitely be contacting these guys again when an appliance need arises in the future!!! Thanks Chris and Manny!"

"I hired Jeff for a unique repair project on a kitchen exhaust fan outlet. He assessed the situation and offered suggestions on how to fix it. His idea was perfect and I'm very happy with the result. He was professional, knowledgeable, well organized, and listened to what I wanted to have done. Thank you, Jeff."

Small Appliance Repair questions, answered by experts

The standard for most microwave recipes and instructions is 1,000 watts. Other aspects of your microwave need to be considered like size, functionality, and where it will be installed, but 1,000 watts is considered the standard for home cooking. Lower-end models will be 700 watts or less, causing them to heat food more slowly. The maximum wattage for a microwave is usually 1,700 watts.

The average lifespan of a microwave is typically between 7 and 10 years, though this can vary. Some models may last as few as 5 years, while high-end or boutique brands can function for up to 15 years.

Several factors influence a microwave's longevity, including its make, model, and quality, as well as how frequently it is used and how well it is maintained.

To extend the life of your microwave, follow these maintenance and usage tips:

  • Clean regularly: Immediately wipe up spills and food debris. For stuck-on food, you can heat a bowl of water with a bit of lemon juice for a minute to create steam, which makes cleaning easier.

  • Maintain filters: For over-the-range microwaves, regularly clean the grease filter underneath to ensure it runs efficiently. Clean or replace other filters as needed.

  • Handle with care: Avoid slamming the door, as this can damage the door switches over time.

  • Use it safely: Never run the microwave when it's empty, and do not put metal objects or dishes with metallic trim inside, as this can damage the appliance and create a fire hazard.

  • Inspect the power cord: Periodically check the cord for any signs of damage.

If there’s already a suitable outlet near the range, you likely won’t need an electrician to install an over-the-range microwave. However, if there isn’t an existing outlet or the current one doesn’t meet the microwave’s power needs, you’ll probably need an electrician to install a new outlet. 

In most cases, it is more cost-effective to repair a microwave rather than replace it, especially if the appliance is relatively new and not nearing the end of its typical seven-year lifespan. The average cost to repair a microwave is around $175, whereas a replacement can average $500, including the new unit and installation. The cost of a new microwave varies significantly by type, from $50 to $500 for a countertop model to as much as $3,500 for a combination oven. If your microwave is less than five years old, a repair is likely the better financial choice. However, if it is approaching the end of its life—usually around seven to eight years old—replacing it might be more sensible in the long run.

Built-in models often integrate better aesthetically while being safer with overheating controls. Consultancy helps choose the correct type.
