Overview
One Click Dubai repairs cookers and ovens at home across Dubai, with same-day visits and bookings taken at any hour. Cooker repair covers gas cookers, electric cookers, cooking ranges, built-in ovens and range cookers of every brand, and every fault: not heating, not lighting, wrong temperature, a broken door, a dead display or a tripping breaker.
Our technicians work on both the electrical side and the gas side, for cylinder gas and piped gas. We keep about 90% of the parts we need in stock, and most repairs are finished in the kitchen in one visit.
This page starts with what to do if you smell gas, then explains the checks to make before booking, how gas and electric ovens fail, what each part costs in Dubai, and how cookers and ovens are installed.
Cooker and oven repair in Dubai: what we fix and what it costs
Cooker and oven repair in Dubai from One Click Dubai starts with an AED 100 diagnostic visit, plus VAT, which finds the fault. You then get the repair price and decide. Market prices run from AED 80 to AED 150 for simple repairs such as an ignition electrode or a knob, AED 150 to AED 450 for an element, thermostat or fan, and AED 400 to AED 900 for a control board.
If the appliance is inside the maker's warranty, contact the maker first.
If you smell gas: what to do first
If you smell gas near a cooker, stop and make the kitchen safe before thinking about repair. Close the gas, air the room, and keep every flame and switch off until the smell has gone.
Close the valve on the cylinder, or the isolation valve on the wall or under the worktop for piped gas. Turn all the cooker knobs to off.
Let the gas clear. Cylinder gas is heavier than air and collects at floor level and in low cupboards.
No flames, no lighters, no smoking. Do not switch lights, the extractor or any appliance on or off, and do not unplug anything.
Get everyone out and call from outside. Dubai Civil Defence is on 997. In a building with piped gas, tell the building security or management as well.
Until a technician has found the leak and tested the connection.
A faint smell for a second or two as a burner lights is normal. A smell with everything turned off is not. We check hoses, regulators, valves and joints with leak-detection fluid, and never with a flame.
Five checks before you book
Five checks settle many oven not working calls without a visit: the power supply, the clock, the function knob, the gas supply and the door. They take a few minutes.
An electric oven usually has its own breaker in the distribution board and a wall switch near the cooker, often with a red light. Check both. A gas cooker still needs power for its spark and its light.
Many ovens will not heat until the clock is set after a power cut, or while the timer is in automatic mode. A flashing display or a letter A means it is waiting. Set the time, or press the manual button, shown by a hand or pot symbol on many models.
Both knobs must be set. A function that lights only the lamp or runs only the fan gives no heat.
Is the cylinder empty? Is the valve open? Do the hob burners light? If nothing on a gas cooker lights, the fault is the supply and not the oven.
A key symbol means the controls are locked. Demo mode lights the display and heats nothing. The manual gives the buttons to cancel each.
If the breaker trips when the oven is switched on, leave it off. A failed heating element leaking current to earth is the usual cause, and resetting the breaker repeatedly does not help.
Oven and cooker problems we repair, by symptom
Most oven and cooker faults show up as one of twelve symptoms. The table gives the usual causes for electric and gas appliances side by side, since the same symptom has different causes in each.
Electric oven not heating
An electric oven not heating has usually lost a heating element. A fan oven has a circular element round the fan at the back, and a conventional oven has one in the base and one in the roof, which is also the grill. When one burns out, that function stops, and the other functions carry on.
What you can see
An element is a straightforward repair when the part is in stock. The thermostat and the cut-out are tested at the same time, because an element sometimes fails as a result of one of them sticking. An oven with a burnt terminal block at the back, where the mains cable joins, needs the block and often the cable end replaced.
Gas oven not heating or not lighting
A gas oven not heating either is not lighting or is lighting and going out. Lighting needs three things: gas at the burner, a spark, and a flame-failure device that senses the flame and holds the gas valve open. Each fails in its own recognisable way.
Holding the knob
On most gas ovens you push the knob in, light the burner, and keep the knob pressed for five to ten seconds while the thermocouple heats. Letting go too soon makes the flame go out, and that is how the safety device is meant to work. If it goes out after a full fifteen seconds, the thermocouple or valve is faulty.
Do not relight repeatedly without airing the oven. Open the door and wait a minute between attempts, so unburnt gas clears.
Oven temperature wrong: burning, undercooking and uneven baking
An oven that burns or undercooks food has a temperature fault, an airflow fault or a door that is leaking heat. You can measure which with an oven thermometer, a small dial or probe that sits on the shelf and costs very little.
How to check
On the middle shelf, in the centre.
Let the oven heat for at least twenty minutes after it says it is ready.
Every oven swings above and below its setting as the heat cycles. Take three or four readings over fifteen minutes and average them.
An average within about 10 to 15°C of the setting is normal. A steady error of 25°C or more is a fault.
Foil on the oven floor, and trays that fill the whole shelf, block the air and cause uneven baking in a healthy oven.
Oven door, hinge, glass and seal repair
Oven door repair covers four parts: the hinges that carry the door, the glass panels, the seal round the opening, and the handle. A door that does not close fully leaks heat, lengthens cooking and overheats the control knobs above it.
Oven door glass is toughened and cut to the model, so we order it by model number. Do not use an oven with a cracked inner or outer panel: toughened glass can shatter completely without warning.
Top oven or grill works, but the bottom oven does not
On a double oven or a cooker with two cavities, each oven has its own elements or burner, its own thermostat and its own selector. When the bottom oven is not working but the top is, the fault is in the bottom oven's own parts, most often its element or its igniter, and the rest of the cooker is fine.
Oven and cooker parts we repair and replace
Ten parts account for most oven and cooker repairs in Dubai. The prices are 2026 market ranges published by companies in the city, before VAT, and show what the market charges. They are not our fixed price list.
Parts for built-in ovens from Bosch, Siemens, Neff, Gaggenau, Miele and Smeg usually sit at the upper end.
Gas cooker repair
Gas cooker repair covers the hob burners, the oven and grill burners, the ignition, the control valves, and the connection to the gas: the hose and the regulator. We work on cookers that run on cylinder gas and on piped gas from a building's central system.
What a healthy flame looks like
Blue, steady and even all the way round the burner, with perhaps a small yellow tip. Yellow or orange flames that leave soot on pans mean the burner is dirty, the air mix is wrong, or the jets do not match the gas.
Converting between cylinder gas and piped gas
Cylinder gas (LPG) and piped natural gas need different jets, because they burn at different pressures. A cooker moved from one to the other, without conversion, either roars with tall yellow flames or barely lights. We change the jets on every burner, adjust the low-flame setting, fit the correct regulator and test each burner.
For faults on the hob alone, see gas stove repair.
By type: built-in oven, freestanding cooker, range cooker, double and steam ovens
The type of appliance decides how it is reached and which parts it has. A freestanding cooker is pulled forward. A built-in oven is unscrewed from its housing and slid out onto a support, with the power off.
Cooker and oven repair cost in Dubai
Cooker and oven repair cost in Dubai is typically AED 80 to AED 450 for the common faults and AED 400 to AED 900 for a control board. Our diagnostic visit is AED 100 plus VAT. The ranges are 2026 market prices published by companies in the city.
Door glass, hinges, gas valves and thermocouples are priced by model, so we quote those once we have the model number.
Repair or replace?
Repair an oven or cooker when the repair costs less than about half the price of a comparable new one. Ovens are simple machines and last well, so most faults are worth fixing. Replace when the cavity or the burners have rusted through, or when a board is no longer made.
A built-in oven is sized to its cabinet. Before replacing one, measure the housing, since a new model may not fit the old cut-out.
Oven and cooker installation
We install electric ovens, gas cookers and dual-fuel range cookers. An electric oven needs the right electrical supply and ventilation in its housing. A gas cooker needs a sound hose and regulator, a leak test and an anti-tilt fixing.
Electric oven installation
The oven's rating plate gives its power in kilowatts. Smaller ovens may run from a plug. Most built-in ovens and all electric cookers need their own circuit from the distribution board, with a breaker and cable sized to the rating and an isolating switch near the appliance.
The cut-out must match the maker's dimensions, with the ventilation gaps the manual shows at the back and the base.
The cable is connected at the oven's terminal block and clamped, with a proper earth.
The oven is screwed to the housing through the side trims, and each function is run.
Gas cooker installation
The cooker is levelled on its feet, so pans sit flat and the oven shelves are true.
A freestanding cooker is chained or bracketed to the wall, so it cannot tip if weight is put on the open door.
A new hose of the correct type and length, with clips, and the regulator that matches the gas.
Every joint is tested with leak-detection fluid, with the gas on.
Each burner is lit and checked on high and low. The flame-failure devices are tested by blowing a flame out and confirming the gas shuts.
If the kitchen has no cooker circuit or no gas point, tell us when you book. A new circuit can be run by our technicians, so you do not need a separate electrician to fit the oven. A new piped-gas point has to be provided by the building's gas company.
Commercial oven repair
We repair commercial ovens for restaurants, bakeries, cafes and catering kitchens: convection ovens, combination ovens, deck and pizza ovens, and commercial ranges. A stopped oven stops the menu, so these calls are given priority.
For extraction faults above the cooking line, see commercial kitchen exhaust hood repair.
Hobs, stoves and cooktops
A fault on the hob alone, with the oven working, has its own pages: gas stove repair, electric stove repair, induction hob repair and glass cooktop replacement. The stove and hob repair page covers them together.
Oven and cooker brands we repair
We repair every oven and cooker brand sold in the UAE, including Bosch, Siemens, Neff, Gaggenau, Miele, Smeg, Ariston, Indesit, Whirlpool, Electrolux, AEG, Zanussi, Beko, Teka, Samsung, LG, Glem Gas, La Germania, Bompani and Super General.

Frequently asked questions
How long does an oven repair take?
Most repairs take about an hour. A built-in oven takes a little longer, because it has to come out of its housing.
Why did my oven stop working after a power cut?
The clock needs setting. Many ovens will not heat until it is. Set the time and choose manual mode.
Is it safe to use the oven if the door glass is cracked?
No. Toughened glass can shatter suddenly once it is cracked. Leave the oven off until the panel is replaced.
Why does my oven smell of burning?
Spilt food on the floor or the element is the usual cause. A new oven also smells for its first few uses. A smell of hot plastic or wiring means switch off and book a visit.
Why does the fan keep running after I switch the oven off?
That is the cooling fan protecting the controls and cabinet. It stops when the oven has cooled.
Can I replace an oven element myself?
It is mains wiring inside a metal case. It should be done with the supply isolated and tested, by someone qualified.
My gas oven lights, then goes out. Is it dangerous?
The safety device is doing its job by shutting the gas. It needs a new thermocouple or valve. Air the oven between attempts.
How often should a gas hose be changed?
Check the date printed on the hose and replace it by then, or sooner if it is cracked, stiff or kinked.
Do you repair cookers bought outside the UAE?
Usually, yes. Parts may need ordering, and a gas cooker may need its jets checked for the local gas.
Do you repair the hob on the same visit?
Yes. Tell us about both faults when you book.
