What the listings say about oven & range repair in Iowa

Counted from the 9 profiles above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.

Iowa holds 9 listed oven & range repair businesses, out of 672 nationwide. That ranks 41st of the 50 states with any, level with Hawaii and behind Florida on 27. Every business listed in Iowa covers it, so this page and the Iowa directory hold the same 9 businesses.

Their ratings average 4.6, level with the 4.6 average across all 672 listed nationwide, and 9 of the 9 sit at 4.5 or better. None holds a straight 5.0, and none sits below 4.0. Between them they carry 697 reviews, the largest single tally being 269 on Greens Appliance, Heating & Cooling in Grimes. Rating and review volume are what the businesses' own public profiles report — treat a high average on six reviews differently from the same average on six hundred.

By review volume the group is led by Greens Appliance, Heating & Cooling in Grimes (269 reviews, 4.7), Appliance Service Center in Des Moines (145 reviews, 4.6) and Dan the Appliance Man in Iowa City (98 reviews, 4.5). By rating it is Greens Appliance, Heating & Cooling at 4.7 on 269 reviews, Iowa Appliance Repair at 4.7 on 50 reviews and Appliance Service Center at 4.6 on 145 reviews. Those are two different questions and they rarely give the same answer — volume tells you a company has been doing this at scale, a high average on a handful of reviews tells you much less.

All 9 state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. On top of that, 7 show a Better Business Bureau accreditation, 1 states a factory-authorised or factory-trained credential and 1 publishes a parts-and-labor warranty term in the profiles. 1 of the 9 advertises 24/7 emergency callout, and 1 advertises same-day service. All of that is self-stated in the listing, not verified here: ask for the license number and a current certificate of insurance, and for anything that opens a sealed refrigerant system ask to see federal EPA Section 608 certification, which is required in all fifty states.

7 of the 9 publish a founding year: the longest-established has been trading since 1958, and the median across those that say is 26 years. Des Moines holds the most at 2 — 22% of the group — level with Grimes, across 7 Iowa cities with an index page. Between them they name 31 distinct towns, suburbs and neighborhoods in their stated service areas, so coverage reaches well past the cities listed here — give your address when you call rather than assuming.

What Iowa technicians find most often

The 5 most common oven & range faults, and whether each is homeowner work or a job for a licensed technician.

All 8 faults →

  • Oven will not reach temperature or will not heat at all

    Technician

    A failed bake element on an electric oven, or a weak igniter that no longer draws enough current to open the gas safety valve.

    Step-by-step: Oven Not Heating At All→

  • Food burns on one side and undercooks on the other

    Homeowner fix

    A drifted temperature sensor, a partially failed element, or a convection fan that has stopped. Calibration fixes drift; the rest needs parts.

    Step-by-step: Oven Not Heating Evenly→

  • Surface burner clicks but will not light

    Homeowner fix

    A clogged burner port or a wet spark electrode after a boil-over. Clean and dry it before assuming the spark module has failed.

    Step-by-step: Gas Burner Won't Light→

  • One electric surface element stays cold

    Technician

    The element itself, its receptacle block, or the infinite switch behind the knob. Swap in a known-good element to tell which.

    Step-by-step: Electric Burner Not Working→

  • Control panel dead, frozen, or throwing an F-code

    Technician

    The electronic oven control board, or a relay on it that has welded. Common after a self-clean cycle overheats the board.

Keep the next call from happening

Ask the technician to walk you through these while they are on site — every one of them prevents a fault in the list above.

  • Verify temperature with an oven thermometer and recalibrate

    Annually

    Prevents: Years of blamed recipes and an unnecessary service call.

  • Clean burner ports with a pin and dry electrodes fully

    Every 3 months

    Prevents: Continuous clicking and burners that will not light.

  • Wipe spills while the cavity is warm instead of running self-clean

    After heavy use

    Prevents: The self-clean heat cycle that kills control boards and door locks.

What oven & range repair costs in Iowa

National ranges for parts and labor together, before the $50–$120 diagnostic. Labor tracks local wages and drive time, so metro Iowa sits toward the top of each range and rural calls toward the bottom, while the part costs about the same anywhere. Nothing here is a quote.

Full cost breakdown →
Typical oven & range repair jobs with national cost ranges.
RepairParts + labor
Oven calibration and temperature checkOften the whole answer for uneven baking.$80–$150
Bake or broil element (electric)Part is $15–$40; two screws and a connector.$150–$300
Oven temperature sensorShould read about 1,080 ohms at room temperature.$150–$280
Surface burner igniter or spark moduleClean the ports first — many modules are replaced needlessly.$150–$300
Oven igniter (gas)Licensed work; a weak igniter that still glows is a real failure mode.$180–$350
Door lock assembly or hinge setHinges are replaced in pairs.$180–$350

13–15 years, and gas ranges frequently outlive that because their cooktop side is almost entirely mechanical. Electric ranges are limited by their control board rather than by anything you can see. When replacing beats repairing covers the 4 cases where the maths turns, in full.

Oven & Range repair in Iowa — common questions

How many oven & range repair pros are listed in Iowa?
9 businesses listed in Iowa name oven & range repair among the work they do — 100% of the 9 businesses this directory holds for the state, 41st of the 50 states with any, out of 672 listed nationwide — 1% of them. Des Moines accounts for 2 of them. The directory is a sample of the market, not a register of every company trading in Iowa.
Which oven & range repair companies are rated highest in Iowa?
Greens Appliance, Heating & Cooling in Grimes at 4.7 on 269 reviews, Iowa Appliance Repair in Des Moines at 4.7 on 50 reviews, Appliance Service Center in Des Moines at 4.6 on 145 reviews — that is the order the list on this page uses. Ratings and review counts come from the businesses' own public profiles and are not verified here.
How much does oven & range repair cost in Iowa?
Expect $150–$450 for a common oven & range repair, parts and labor together, on top of a $50–$120 diagnostic fee that most companies credit against the work if you go ahead. Those are national bands, not Iowa quotes: labor rates track local wages and drive time, so a dense metro sits at the top of each range and a rural call at the bottom, while the part itself costs about the same anywhere. Get written estimates from two or three of the 9 listed here before authorizing anything.
Which Iowa city has the most oven & range repair companies?
Des Moines, with 2 of the 9 — 22% of the group — followed by Grimes on 2. 7 Iowa cities in total have at least one.
Are oven & range repair technicians licensed in Iowa?
All 9 listed here state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. 7 also show a Better Business Bureau accreditation. Licensing for appliance repair is set state by state and sometimes by city or county, so the reliable check is the paperwork: ask which license the company works under, get the number, and confirm it with the issuing authority. Two requirements are national rather than local — sealed refrigerant work needs federal EPA Section 608 certification, and gas work needs a technician qualified for gas appliances.
Can I get same-day or emergency oven & range repair in Iowa?
1 of the 9 listed here advertises 24/7 emergency availability and carries a badge in the ranked list above. A further 1 advertises same-day service. Many of the others take same-day work for common faults without advertising it, so it is worth asking — especially early in the day, before the route is full.
Which oven & range brands do Iowa repair pros service?
The oven & range pros listed in Iowa name 12 distinct brands between them. The most widely covered are Frigidaire (9), GE (9), LG (9), Maytag (9), Samsung (9), Whirlpool (9). Pro-style ranges from Wolf, Viking, Thermador, Dacor and Miele use dedicated parts and service training, and many general technicians will not take them. Wall ovens are also model-specific to install. Name the brand and the format when you call.
How long have Iowa oven & range repair companies been in business?
7 of the 9 publish one. The longest-established has been trading since 1958, and the median across those that say is 26 years. 1 publishes a parts-and-labor warranty term in the listing. Use it as one signal among several: what matters more is whether the technician has opened your platform before, and whether the warranty term is written on the invoice.
Should I repair or replace my oven & range?
Apply the 50% rule. A new oven & range averages $1,000 in the US and lasts about 14 years, so a repair quote over roughly $500 on a unit past 9 years old is usually money better spent on a replacement. Below that line, with life left on the clock, repair almost always wins. Ask for parts and labor as separate figures — it is normally the part, not the hours, that pushes a quote past the threshold.
What should I have ready before calling a oven & range technician in Iowa?
Gas or electric, and whether it is a slide-in, freestanding, or a separate wall oven and cooktop. Model number from the frame behind the door or inside the storage drawer. The exact F-code or error shown. Having those three answers ready is what turns a diagnose-then-return-visit into a single trip. Worth knowing before you call: 1 of the 9 listed in Iowa also offer appliance installation and 1 offer dryer vent cleaning, which can be worth bundling into the same visit.
