Repair or Replace?

In most cases, repairing your microwave is the more affordable option. As a rule of thumb: if the repair quote is under Ksh 3,000 and the microwave is less than 8 years old, repair is almost always better value than replacing it. If it's over 10 years old, or the quote approaches the cost of a magnetron replacement (Ksh 4,000–5,000), it's worth asking your technician whether replacement makes more sense — we'll give you an honest recommendation either way, even if that means advising you not to repair.

Microwave Repair FAQs

Common questions about microwave repair in Nairobi.

How much does microwave repair cost in Nairobi?

Microwave repair in Nairobi costs between Ksh 1,500 and Ksh 5,000. Fuse replacement costs Ksh 1,500–2,500. Magnetron replacement ranges from Ksh 3,000–5,000 depending on the brand and model.

Why is my microwave running but not heating food?

A microwave that runs but doesn't heat is almost always caused by a failed magnetron — the component that generates microwave energy. It could also be a blown high-voltage fuse or a faulty diode. RepairTech Kenya technicians diagnose and repair this fault same-day in Nairobi.

Why is my microwave sparking inside?

Sparking inside a microwave is usually caused by a damaged waveguide cover, metallic residue, or a failing stirrer. This is a safety issue — stop using the microwave and call RepairTech Kenya on 0181 811 999 for an urgent repair in Nairobi.

Is it worth repairing a microwave in Nairobi?

Yes, in most cases. Most microwave repairs in Nairobi cost between Ksh 1,500 and Ksh 4,000 — far cheaper than buying a new one. Exceptions include severe magnetron failure in a very old or entry-level unit where replacement may be more economical.
