A microwave typically lasts about ten years. So if you’re considering a repair, you should also consider the age and cost of the unit. If it’s an older model and the value is less than $175, it’s probably best to replace it rather than reapir it. Most countertop models aren’t worth the price of a repair.
Microwave repairs are more cost effective if you have a high end or built-in model. These units can cost several hundred dollars, plus installation. If you’d like to schedule a repair, give us a call:
An older or defective microwave might fail instantly, but it may give you some warning signs that the end is near. Here are a few things to look out for as your appliance ages:
- Food isn’t cooking within suggested times.

- Burning smells when cooking.
- Buzzing and electrical sounds when in use.
- You have to push the buttons more than once.

An Easy Way to Clean Your Microwave
It’s amazing how dirty a microwave can get. Most spills and splatters can be wiped up with a damp sponge, or a mixture of warm water and a mild dish soap. If your interior needs a deeper cleaning, here’s a little trick that works surprisingly well.
Put half a cup of water in a bowl. Squeeze a lemon into the water. Leave the lemon in the water. Microwave for 3-4 minutes. Allow the water to come to a boil. Let stand for 5 minutes. This should make it very easy to wipe away the grime with a towel. You can repeat this process if the first round didn’t quite do the trick.
