Dont get overchaged for an oven repair in New York City

Sunday, January 29th, 2012

We received a call from a lady that was looking for price to change an ignitor in an oven, we don’t like to give prices over the phone for many reasons. Replacing an ignitor solves about 90 percent of oven problems, it is a simple procedure for a trained tech, it is somewhat risky since you are dealing with gas and if not done properly can cause a gas leak and/or gas explosion. We charge an average of $200 dollars for one oven ignitor replacement in NYC, most ovens have 2 ignitors one for bake and one for broil, Viking ovens might have up to 4 ignitors. Getting back to the call, i told the lady we charge $80 for the visit plus parts and labor, she insisted in total to change an ignitor so i told her we charge an average of 200 for the repair in the nyc area. She was shocked,  she told me a company she had just hired did not charge for the visit but once they got there it was going to cost $200 for the part and $200 for the labor for a total of $400 that is double what we charge for but it was too late the damage was done.
