In Ruiru
LG microwave repair, where you are.
Ruiru has family homes, growing estates and a busy trading centre. Power is less steady in parts, so boards, start relays and power supplies are among the most common repairs.
We repair appliances across Ruiru, Kamakis, Membley, Tatu City and Kimbo. Tell us the estate name when you call and we give you the earliest time.
LG microwaves in Nairobi homes are mostly Neochef models with a flat inverter or a standard magnetron. They heat food with microwaves made by a magnetron, powered by a high-voltage section that must never be opened by anyone untrained.
The commonest faults are a dead magnetron or a failed high-voltage diode or capacitor, a door switch that no longer closes, and a turntable motor. Sparks inside are a warning: stop using the microwave and call us.

Questions
Before you book.
Anything else? Send it on WhatsApp and a technician answers.
Do you repair LG microwaves in Ruiru?
Yes. A technician comes to your home or business in Ruiru, Kiambu and repairs the LG microwave where it stands, in most cases in one visit.
How soon can you reach Ruiru?
Often the same day for Ruiru and nearby Kahawa Sukari. Call or WhatsApp early in the day and we give you the earliest time.
Is it safe to repair a microwave?
Only by a trained technician. The high-voltage capacitor can hold a charge even when unplugged. We discharge and test it safely.
Why is my microwave sparking?
Usually a damaged waveguide cover or food stuck inside. Stop using it and call us.
Is a microwave worth repairing?
Often yes, when the fault is a diode, a switch or a motor. A failed magnetron on a cheap microwave may not be worth the cost, and we tell you.
How much does a repair cost?
There is a visit fee for diagnosis and transport, which depends on where you are and is confirmed before we come. Once the technician finds the fault you get the full price for parts and labour, and nothing is done until you say yes.
Can you come today?
Often, yes. We are open 24/7 and offer same-day visits whenever a technician is free near you. We confirm the time on WhatsApp or by phone.
Do you use genuine parts?
Yes. We fit genuine parts or parts made for your exact model, and carry the common ones with us, so many repairs are finished on the first visit.
