The answer depends on three things: the age of the cooker, the nature of the fault, and the cost of a replacement.
Cooker Age Guide
- Under 7 years: Almost always worth repairing
- 7–12 years: Repair if the cost is under 40% of replacement value
- Over 12 years: Consider parts availability; if parts are still made, repair can still make sense
Parts Availability
This is the key constraint on older cookers. If the manufacturer no longer makes parts, repair becomes difficult and expensive. An engineer can check parts availability before quoting.
Energy Efficiency
Older cookers are generally less energy efficient. If your cooker is over 10 years old and has multiple faults, a new A-rated model will save on running costs.
