"I am so happy with the services provided by TruePro Home Services! I have a very old oven that I truly believed would need to be replaced. But, Yury came on time, diagnosed the issues, and had the parts with him to do the repair the same day. My oven is now in perfect working order. Highly recommend!"

"Our LG Front Loading washer wasn't draining. I contacted Simon the next day. He had the part on his truck and came by within 30 minutes, and had it up and running super fast! Thank you Simon for your punctuality, honesty and great value. See you next time!"

"Wonderful and top notched care! They were able to meet my same day expectation to get a washer and dryer hooked up in a new house. He was attentive, thoughtful and explained it all as well. I would highly recommend their service!"

$130 – $600

Average repair cost

Oven repairs in Ventura County range from $130 to $600. Gas ovens cost 10-20% more to fix than electric models because of the added complexity of gas valve, igniter, and burner tube repairs. Thousand Oaks and Conejo Valley homes frequently have premium brands like Wolf, Viking, and Thermador with dual-fuel configurations that push repair costs higher. Standard brands like GE, Whirlpool, and Frigidaire are more common in Simi Valley and Camarillo and cost less to service. Ventura County labor rates run $90-$130 per hour. Unlike water-connected appliances, ovens are not affected by the area's hard water, so lifespan depends mainly on usage and maintenance.

Repair Cost Breakdown

Repair	Cost Range	Notes
Igniter replacement (gas)	$150-$300	The most common gas oven repair. The oven takes forever to preheat or will not light at all. Igniter costs $30-$80.
Bake or broil element replacement (electric)	$130-$280	The element has visible damage or the oven heats unevenly. Elements cost $25-$80. A simple swap that takes 30-60 minutes.
Gas safety valve replacement	$175-$350	The valve controls gas flow to the burner. If it fails, the oven will not heat even with a working igniter. Valve costs $50-$150.
Temperature sensor replacement	$120-$250	The oven runs too hot or too cold. The sensor (also called a thermistor) costs $20-$50 and calibrates oven temperature.
Control board replacement	$250-$550	The oven displays error codes, buttons do not respond, or the unit shuts off mid-cook. Boards cost $150-$400. Wolf and Viking boards are the most expensive.
Door hinge or spring replacement	$130-$275	The oven door will not close properly or hangs at an angle. Hinges cost $30-$80 per pair. A loose door lets heat escape and increases cook times.
Convection fan motor replacement	$175-$350	The convection fan stops spinning, causing uneven cooking. Motor costs $60-$150. Premium brands use larger, more expensive motors.
Door glass replacement	$150-$350	Cracked or shattered inner door glass. The panel costs $80-$200 depending on the model. Double and triple-pane doors on premium ovens cost more.

Factors That Affect Cost

Gas vs. electric

Gas oven repairs run 10-20% higher than electric. Igniters, gas valves, and burner tubes require specialized tools and a post-repair gas leak test. Electric ovens have simpler heating elements that are cheaper and faster to swap.

Premium vs. standard brands

Wolf, Viking, and Thermador ovens common in Thousand Oaks carry proprietary parts that cost 30-50% more. A Wolf control board can run $300-$400 just for the part. Standard brand boards cost $100-$200.

Single vs. double oven

Double wall ovens take longer to service because the technician must work in a tighter space and potentially move the unit. Expect 30-60 minutes of additional labor.

Self-cleaning mechanism damage

Running the self-clean cycle at extreme temperatures often damages door locks, thermal fuses, and control boards. Many oven repairs are triggered by a self-clean cycle gone wrong.

Access and installation type

Wall ovens built into cabinetry require careful extraction. Freestanding ovens are easier to access. The installation type affects labor time by 30 minutes to an hour.

Repair vs. Replace

Ovens last 12-20 years with proper care. Gas ovens tend to last longer because burner components are more durable than electric elements.

✅ Repair when…

•The oven is under 10 years old
•A single component has failed (igniter, element, sensor)
•The repair costs under $400
•The oven cavity and door are in good condition

❌ Replace when…

•The control board has failed on a unit over 15 years old
•Gas valve and igniter have both failed simultaneously
•The oven cavity has cracks or severe rust
•Repair cost exceeds 40% of a new comparable oven

The 50% Rule

Ovens are expensive to replace, especially wall ovens and premium brands. Repairs are usually worth it unless the unit has multiple simultaneous failures or significant structural damage.

Oven Repair Cost — FAQ

Between $150 and $300. The igniter itself costs $30-$80, and labor runs $90-$130 per hour. Most igniter replacements take 45-75 minutes. This is the most common gas oven repair and usually solves the problem of an oven that takes too long to preheat or will not light.

Three common causes: a failing bake element (electric), a weak igniter that does not fully open the gas valve, or a broken convection fan motor. A faulty temperature sensor can also cause uneven heating. TruePro's $59 diagnostic identifies the exact issue, and that fee gets credited toward the repair.

Yes. Wolf and Viking use proprietary parts that cost 30-50% more than standard brands. A Wolf control board runs $300-$400 for the part alone. These brands also require technicians trained on their specific systems. Total repair costs on premium ovens typically run $250-$600.

It can. The self-clean cycle heats the oven to 800-900 degrees Fahrenheit. That extreme heat can blow the thermal fuse, warp the door lock mechanism, or damage the control board. Many oven repair calls come right after a self-clean cycle. Manually cleaning your oven is safer for the appliance.

Yes. TruePro services freestanding, wall-mounted, and built-in ovens from all major brands. Built-in and wall oven repairs may require careful extraction from cabinetry, which adds some labor time. The $59 diagnostic fee and 90-day warranty apply to all oven types.
