Dmitry visited today and helped fixing GE oven. He was quick to diagnose issue and fixed it at reasonable price.
I haven't met a man as professional and honest as Alex in a long time. He really does the best in the interest of the customer.
Igor from Boost Appliance Service repaired my subzero refrigerator. He needed to order parts but in general the repair turned over was fast and my fridge is working perfectly right now. The best service in Morristown. Highly recommend!
I was very impressed with their great availability. They scheduled me in quickly and Ramiz was very knowledgeable and detail oriented. The error code we had was not appearing but he still spent 45 minutes making sure everything was checked. I appreciated his attention to detail and not just leaving when the error code wasn't there. We will definitely be returning customers!
A+++ Service. Boost Appliance Service is great. I called on Monday and Mr. Igor came the next day to repair the defrost sensor and drain line of my fridge, he also did thorough maintenance checks on my laundry dryer and laundry washer machine. 3 appliances all in one day. Highly recommended. Answered all my questions and showed me how to maintain my appliances. Thank you.
Eddie did an EXCELLENT job diagnosing, repairing and cleaning my washer and dryer. Completely disassembled it, made it run smoother than ever and made the inside shine like new.

Last updated August 2026
Two ovens, one broken — that's the call we hear most out of Franklin Borough: the top cavity bakes a casserole fine while the bottom one sits at room temperature, or vice versa. Sometimes it's not that dramatic, just a 25-degree gap between what the dial says and what a thermometer inside actually reads, which ruins a Thanksgiving turkey faster than anything else in the kitchen. Franklin's a small borough — a few thousand people clustered around the Franklin Mineral Museum and the old mine dumps off Buckwheat Road — but double ovens show up here just as often as in bigger towns, especially in the newer builds near Franklin Pond where families upgraded to Samsung or KitchenAid double-wall units when they renovated. GE and Whirlpool models from the 90s are still common too, tucked into cabinetry that was never really sized for them. Whatever brand, whatever the symptom, we're usually on-site within a couple hours of your call.
Housing in Franklin Borough splits pretty cleanly into two eras. Worker cottages went up in the 1920s and 30s during the zinc mining boom near Main Street and the museum, wired for a fraction of the electrical load a modern double oven needs. Then you've got ranch and split-level homes from the 60s and 70s scattered off Buckwheat Road and toward the Ogdensburg line, most in the 07416 zip, with a handful of calls trickling in from 07460 just over the border. The older cottages frequently still run 30-amp fuse panels where a double oven wants a dedicated 240-volt, 50-amp circuit — that mismatch causes nuisance tripping and control board damage over time. Sussex County's Uniform Construction Code kicks in if we're touching wiring or the circuit itself, not for a straight part swap. We pull the borough electrical permit ourselves when that's the case, so homeowners aren't stuck navigating it solo.
Common Built-In Oven Issues in Franklin Borough
Top Oven Heats, Bottom Oven Doesn't (Or the Reverse)
This is the number one call in Franklin — one cavity works, the other blows cold air no matter how high you set it. Nine times out of ten it's a burned-out bake element or a broil element with a visible blister or split, common on GE and Whirlpool double ovens that have logged over a decade of Sunday dinners. Sometimes it's not the element at all but the safety thermostat that's failed open, cutting power before the coil ever glows. We test with a multimeter on-site, and if it's the element, we're carrying replacements for most GE and Whirlpool models in the truck — repair usually runs $200-$280 and wraps up same visit.
Temperature Mismatch Between the Two Cavities
Set both dials to 350 and one oven runs 15 degrees hot while the other runs 20 degrees cold — that's a calibration or sensor problem, not something you can fix by eyeballing the knob. Digital models like Samsung and LG double ovens rely on a temperature sensor probe reporting to the control board; when that probe drifts out of spec, the board overcompensates. Older Kenmore and Whirlpool units with analog thermostats fail differently, usually from a worn thermostat capillary tube. We recalibrate digital boards on-site in about 20 minutes, but a failed sensor probe needs replacing — that's roughly $130-$190 including the part.
Control Board Dead or Acting Erratic
A control board that resets itself mid-cook, won't hold a program, or shows a blank display after a power blip is a real headache, and it happens more in Franklin's older cottages than newer construction because of voltage fluctuation on aging service panels. Bosch and KitchenAid boards especially are sensitive to power surges. If diagnostics point to wiring rather than the board itself, we pull the required Sussex County electrical permit before opening up the circuit — that's a borough requirement anytime we're rerouting or upgrading a dedicated 240V line, not just swapping a part. Board replacement alone typically runs $350-$500 and takes one visit once the part's confirmed in stock.
Oven Door Won't Stay Shut or Sags on the Hinge
Heavy double ovens put a lot of strain on hinge springs, and after years of daily use the door starts drooping or won't latch flush anymore. On GE and Frigidaire double-wall units, the spring-loaded hinge itself usually gives out before the door frame does. Replacing just the hinge assembly runs $150-$220 per door; if the door hinge receiver on the oven frame is also worn, expect closer to $300 for both sides. It's worth fixing rather than living with a gapped door — a bad seal there wastes energy and throws off your temperature readings in that cavity for months before anyone notices.
When to Repair vs. Replace an Aging Double Oven
Most double wall ovens last 12-15 years before repairs start stacking up faster than they're worth. If your unit's a Bosch or KitchenAid under 10 years old with one failed part — say a control board or door gasket — repair is almost always the smarter call, and we back parts and labor with a warranty. Older Kenmore or budget Frigidaire units past 15 years, especially ones already on a second control board, are where we start recommending replacement instead. Annual maintenance — checking the door gasket seal, cleaning the convection fan, testing the temperature sensor — adds years to any of these units and costs far less than an emergency call.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you get to Franklin Borough for Double Oven Repair?▼
We're usually on-site within two to three hours of your call, coming up Route 23 or through Hamburg depending on where you are in the borough. Parking's easy on most Franklin streets — nothing like the tight logistics we deal with in denser towns. Same-day appointments are open most weekdays, and we keep evening slots available for anyone who can't take off work. Call (551) 282-9561 and we'll get a technician moving.
What does double oven repair cost in Franklin Borough?▼
Most repairs land between $150 and $450 depending on what's failed — a heating element or thermostat swap sits at the low end, while a control board replacement or dual-part repair pushes toward the higher end. Labor and part availability drive the final number, and premium brands like Bosch or KitchenAid sometimes carry pricier boards than GE or Whirlpool. We give a firm quote before starting any work, and estimates are free — no surprise charges tacked on after.
Do I need a permit to have my double oven's wiring repaired in Franklin Borough?▼
Not for a straight part replacement — swapping an element, sensor, or control board doesn't require any paperwork. If the job involves altering the dedicated 240V circuit or panel work, though, Sussex County's Uniform Construction Code requires an electrical permit, and we file that with the borough before touching anything. Most permit-required jobs get approved within a few business days, and we handle the application so you're not stuck at the counter.
My double oven's display shows an error code instead of heating up — can you fix that?▼
Yes — codes like F2 on GE and Whirlpool units usually point to a shorted temperature sensor, while Samsung's SE code often means a stuck control board relay. We run the same diagnostic sequence a factory tech would use to pull the exact fault before replacing anything. Most of these are resolved same visit once we've confirmed which sensor or board component tripped the code. It's rarely the whole board — usually just one component feeding it bad data.
What's the warranty on a double oven repair, and how long should parts last afterward?▼
Parts and labor are covered for 12 months after the repair. Franklin's mix of humidity swings and older home wiring can shorten a component's life compared to newer construction, so we flag any secondary issues — like a weak circuit — that might shorten a new part's lifespan. A properly repaired heating element or control board should run another 8-10 years without issue. We'll tell you honestly if a unit's close enough to end-of-life that repair isn't worth it.
Do you cover towns near Franklin Borough, and how do I schedule?▼
We regularly cover Hamburg, Ogdensburg, Hardyston, Sparta, and Vernon in addition to Franklin Borough itself. Scheduling windows run seven days a week, with same-day slots typically available if you call before early afternoon. Emergency calls for a completely dead oven get priority routing.
