Electric Hob Repair – Quick, Affordable Service in Rugby

Got a cracked surface or a burner that won’t light? An electric hob can be a real headache, but you don’t have to live with it. Our Rugby team knows every make and model, so we can spot the problem and sort it out in a single visit.

First thing we do is a quick visual check. A broken glass top, a loose heating element, or a faulty control board are the most common culprits. Spotting a crack early can save you from a full‑top replacement, which is usually pricier. If the glass is only lightly scratched, a simple polish might be enough to restore it.

Typical Fixes and What They Cost

Most electric hobs need one of three things: a new heating element, a glass top replacement, or a control panel repair. An element swap usually runs between £80‑£120, while a glass top can cost £150‑£250 depending on size and brand. Control board work is a bit more variable, but you’ll know the exact price before we start.

We also check the wiring behind the hob. Loose connections cause intermittent heating and can be a safety risk. Tightening a loose screw or replacing a short piece of cable takes minutes and costs almost nothing – but it prevents bigger problems later.

When to Call a Pro vs. DIY

If the hob is still under warranty, let the manufacturer know first. Otherwise, most DIY attempts end up costing more because of missing tools or a wrong part. Trying to replace a glass top without the right suction cup system can crack the new piece, turning a simple fix into a costly disaster.

That’s why we recommend calling a pro as soon as you notice any of these signs: uneven heating, error codes on the display, strange smells, or a cracked surface. Our technicians arrive fully equipped – they bring the exact replacement part, specialist tools, and a clear estimate before any work begins.

We also offer a maintenance check for homeowners who want peace of mind. A quick 15‑minute inspection can spot wear on the knobs, build‑up of grime on the heating zones, and ensure the hob is safe for daily use.

So, next time your electric hob misbehaves, pick up the phone and call Rugby Appliance Repair Services. We’ll get your kitchen back to cooking hot meals in no time, without breaking the bank.
