What do microwave repair and installation services include?

Hire our microwave specialists for expert installation and repair of your microwave ovens. They can go to your location at your preferred time and utilise their expertise to provide the exact service you need. We have plenty of Taskers who can install almost any make model, and also carry out diagnostics and repairs, so you won't have to spend more for an expensive replacement. Here are some specific services that you can book from us:

Microwave Installation

Microwave ovens are commonly fitted over the range, tucked into upper or lower shelves, or hidden in a cabinet. If you need expert assistance to ensure efficient installation, taskers are more than happy to drop by and lend a helping hand. The exact process depends on the type of microwave you have and where you want to mount it. But the basics include finding studs and marking them accordingly, drilling holes to open up space for cords and venting, fitting support brackets, and mounting the appliance in place.

In case you also need help setting up your gas stove or oven, as well as establishing a gas line, we also have qualified gas fitters who can do that for you.

Microwave oven repair

Just like any other appliance, microwaves can also encounter unexpected damages and glitches that could compromise their functionality. Our microwave technicians can help troubleshoot the issues and repair them as needed. Some of the most common hiccups include broken doors and turntables, arcing sparks inside the oven, and defective capacitors that prevent the food from heating up.

Microwave control panel repair

If you are struggling with a broken, non-responsive control panel, you can hire our microwave technicians to address the problem as soon as possible. Some of the most typical causes include worn out membrane switches, damaged control boards, water or moisture penetration, or insect attacks. 

This issue is resolved by simply removing and detaching the control panel from your appliance, accessing the membrane switch, and finally replacing them. You'll have your microwave back up and running in no time!

Microwave paint peeling repair

Years after use, you might start noticing the paint peeling from inside your microwave. All you have to do is find a skilled repairer who can help you clean and repaint it. Taskers can help you remove the peeling paint, clean off the grime or grease, and sand them down if needed. 

Once done, they can start repainting it using safe, non-toxic formulas suitable for microwaves. If you're unsure of what paint to use, you can always ask your Tasker for advice and suggestions. Also, remember to let the paint dry and cure at least a day or two before using your appliance again.

Build a framed enclosure (like a picture-frame) around the microwave above oven. Front-facing frame: 590 mm wide × 470 mm high. Microwave slot: 470 mm × 272 mm with a 20 mm finger-gap on right side. Construct from 18 mm white melamine MDF, with clean white edge-banding. Depth of the enclosure is the existing ~800 mm. Leave ventilation gaps — especially on right side and top/back. Include both front and side-elevation sketches with labeled dimensions. Measurements are not exact. I imagine this can be made of scrap MDF hence the price

Remove a microwave from the wall

$20

Wentworth Point NSW, Australia

25th Mar 2025

Hi there, I need to remove the existing microwave from the wall. It might need some tools to remove the screw from the installation shelf. I have attached the photo. Once done, install the new microwave into the wall.

Great execution despite the tricky situation for the old installation of the previous microbe, and fixed my stove as a bonus, also taking out the garbage.
