TL;DR: oven and stove repair cost in the GTA, 2026
- Most oven and stove repairs cost $150 to $420 all-in. Parts and labour are in the price, and so is our written 90-day warranty.
- A control board is the dearest common repair, at up to $500. It is also the one where buying new deserves a real look.
- Is it worth repairing? For one failed element, igniter, sensor or hinge, almost always. Think twice once the quote nears half the price of the range you would buy instead.
- Gas work is done by TSSA-certified technicians. A gas igniter prices like an electric element, the gas safety valve runs higher at $250 to $420, and neither is a DIY job.
- We charge $89 to come out and find the fault. Say yes to the repair and that $89 comes off the bill.
- To book, phone us: 647-834-4646. Same-day visits reach the GTA, York Region and Simcoe County.
Oven repair cost in the GTA runs $150 to $420 all-in for most faults, with parts, labour and our 90-day warranty included. Stove repair cost sits in the same table, because a stove is the oven and the cooktop in one appliance. The top of the scale is a control board, at up to $500.
The question that leads the search results, in forum threads where people post their quote beside a new-range price, is whether to fix it at all. We answer that first, then price every common repair.
Is it worth repairing an oven, or should you buy new?
Usually, repair. When a single common part has failed on a range that is otherwise in good shape, the fix usually lands in the lower rows of the table, where six of the eight rows stop at $320 or less. The case for buying new gets strong in two places: a major part such as the control board or the gas safety valve on a range that has already needed work, or a quote that comes close to half the price of a comparable new range.
Treat the half-price test as a rough guide, and feed it real prices from your own shopping. Price the range you would really buy and halve it. Well under that line, repair; near or over it, buy new, and we will tell you so.
Some things push us toward replacing even when the quote looks fine:
- Rust or structural damage in the oven cavity or the cabinet.
- A range that keeps calling us back, one repair after another.
- Opening it up and finding another part close to failing, so the first fix would only buy a few months.
The opposite case is easy: a single part we already carry on the van, a range with a clean history, and a price near the bottom of the table below.
Oven and stove repair cost by part (GTA prices, 2026)
Each figure is the full bill for that repair, parts and labour together, backed by our written 90-day warranty. The $89 service call gets credited against it if you go ahead.
| Repair | Typical all-in cost | Repair or replace? |
|---|---|---|
| Surface burner element or spark module | $150 to $300 | Repair: the usual fix for a dead burner |
| Door hinge, spring or seal | $150 to $280 | Repair: quick and worth it |
| Bake or broil element (electric) | $160 to $280 | Repair: one of the most worthwhile fixes |
| Wiring, relays or infinite switch | $160 to $320 | Repair: behind many one-burner-dead calls |
| Oven thermostat or temperature sensor | $170 to $300 | Repair: fixes hot, cold or uneven baking |
| Gas oven igniter (TSSA-certified work) | $180 to $320 | Repair: often the cause of a cold gas oven |
| Gas safety valve (TSSA-certified work) | $250 to $420 | Repair, with age and the half-price test deciding on some models |
| Control board or clock-timer | $300 to $500 | Repair on mid-range and premium ranges; the half-price test decides on budget models |
Look at the price column and you will notice something. Six of the eight rows stop at $320 or less. Only the gas safety valve and the control board go past it, and those two are where we actually have the repair-or-buy-new talk at the kitchen table.
What goes into an oven repair cost
We price an oven repair cost from three things: the service call, the part, and how long it takes us to get at the part. The call is $89 flat, and we credit it to the repair if you go ahead. After that, it is the part and the hours that decide whether you land at the bottom of a range or the top.
The hours surprise people. A bake element or a door hinge is right there when you open the oven. A gas valve, a control board or some sensors are not. We have to take panels off, sometimes slide the whole range out from the wall, and that time is on the bill just like the part.
So when someone asks us for an exact price over the phone, we can’t give one. One range might need a cheap part for a symptom where the next range needs a dear one, and parts change from brand to brand and model to model. What pins it down is the model and serial label. On a lot of ranges you will find it on the frame when you open the oven door, or behind the storage drawer. Read it to us when you call. It does not replace looking at the range, but it tells us if the part is likely already on the van.
Either way, you see a written quote before we start any work. Yes or no is your call, with the real number in hand.
Gas vs electric stove repair cost
Short answer: close to the same. A gas igniter is $180 to $320. An electric bake or broil element is $160 to $280. Where the two really differ is in what breaks, and in who is allowed to fix it.
Electric ovens and stoves
Electric ovens have two heating elements, bake along the bottom and broil up top, and the cooktop runs on coil or radiant elements. No heat on an electric oven? We check the element first, then the temperature sensor, then the control board. The element and the sensor are cheap fixes. The board is the priciest line in the table.
Gas ovens and stoves
Gas ovens light with an igniter, and the gas comes through a safety valve; the burners on top light from a spark module. Here is the catch with igniters. On many gas ovens the valve waits until the igniter is hot enough, so a tired igniter can glow orange and the oven still never lights. That is why a cold gas oven so often ends with a new igniter, at $180 to $320. The safety valve is the pricier gas part, at $250 to $420.
Gas range repair cost has one extra piece that electric does not. Gas appliance work in Ontario falls under the TSSA, and our gas oven and stove repairs are done by TSSA-certified technicians. So please leave anything to do with gas heat, ignition or the valve to us. For the rest of the gas appliances, our gas appliance repair cost guide has the numbers.
Smell gas? Leave first, then call. Get everyone out of the home, do not flip light switches or light anything, and call your gas utility’s emergency line or 911 from outside. The repair comes after the gas is dealt with, not before.
What your symptom probably costs
You know the symptom, not the part. Here is how the usual ones map to the table.
Oven won’t heat
On an electric oven, it is usually the bake element ($160 to $280), the temperature sensor ($170 to $300) or, less often, the control board ($300 to $500). On a gas oven, the igniter is the first suspect, at $180 to $320. Our guide to an oven not heating up walks through the checks worth doing before you call.
Runs hot, runs cold or bakes unevenly: oven thermostat replacement cost
An oven that misses its set temperature often has a failing thermostat or temperature sensor, and replacing it costs $170 to $300 all-in. A worn door seal can cause the same complaint by letting heat escape, and a seal is cheaper still, at $150 to $280 for door hinge, spring or seal work.
Burner won’t light, or one burner is dead
A gas burner that clicks but will not light is usually the spark module, or a burner cap that is dirty or sitting crooked. An electric burner that stays cold, or one stuck on high, usually points to the element, the infinite switch or the wiring behind it. Those repairs run $150 to $300 for a burner element or spark module and $160 to $320 for wiring, relays or a switch.
Door won’t close properly
A door that sags, drops open or leaves a gap is usually a hinge or a spring. At $150 to $280 it is cheap, and worth doing: heat escaping past the door affects baking.
Dead display or clock
A blank display, a dead clock or a keypad that stops responding usually leads to the control board or clock-timer, at $300 to $500. If the whole oven is dead, our guide to an oven not turning on covers the simpler causes to rule out first.
Oven control board replacement cost
An oven control board replacement costs $300 to $500 all-in, the highest price in the table. It is also the repair where the half-price test earns its keep.
On a mid-range or premium range, we usually recommend the board repair. On a budget model, run the half-price test with your own numbers before saying yes. A board on a range that has behaved itself is a sound repair; on one that has already needed two other repairs, usually not.
A cracked glass cooktop is a different job
If the problem is the glass itself, the table above does not cover it. Replacing a cracked radiant glass top costs $300 to $600 for the glass and labour, and induction tops are quoted after diagnosis. See our glass stovetop replacement cost guide.
When buying new wins, and what happens next
Sometimes the honest answer is a new range, and you will hear it from us. A costly repair on a range that is wearing out all over just delays the bill.
We install ranges too, gas and electric, and gas hook-ups are done by TSSA-certified technicians. How long that takes, and what it involves, is in our guide on how long it takes to install a new oven or stove. For install pricing, see our appliance installation services page.
What happens on an oven or stove repair visit
An oven that quits on a Sunday afternoon, or a burner that dies the week before a family dinner, is why the phones stay on 24/7. Booking is one call to 647-834-4646; there is no form to fill in. Tell us the brand, what the oven or cooktop is doing, and whether it runs on gas. You get a 2-hour window for the visit, and a text when the technician is heading your way. Our Bradford and Barrie locations cover the GTA, York Region and Simcoe County, same-day.
The technician at your door is factory-trained, licensed and insured. Expect the oven to be tested and, where needed, the range eased away from the wall before you are handed a written quote; nothing gets replaced until you agree to it. Elements, igniters, valves, switches and sensors ride on our vans, which is why most oven and stove repairs finish in that first visit. The repair is then covered for 90 days, parts and labour, in writing.
Ranges we see often include Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Bosch, Maytag, GE and Frigidaire, along with Thermador and Viking. For Thermador ranges, see Thermador appliance repair. For the full service, see oven and stove repair, and for gas ranges and cooktops, gas appliance repair.
We will not quote you an exact price over the phone: a cold oven might need a $160 element, or it might need a $500 control board. But the $89 service call puts the real number in writing before any work starts, and it is credited to the repair when you go ahead.

Is it worth repairing an oven?
