Time on Site

 

Most straightforward bushing replacements take 1–3 hours on site including removal and testing; delays occur if the oven is built-in with difficult access, screws are seized, specialist parts must be ordered or additional faults are found

 

Questions to Ask Your Tradie

 

• Do you supply the replacement bushings and is there a parts warranty

• Are you an appliance engineer with experience on my oven brand/model

• How do you charge for diagnosis versus repair and is call-out deducted from the job

• If you find further damage (motor, bearings) how will you estimate extra cost and timescale

• Will you test electrical safety and provide a written note or invoice for the work

• Do you need oven model number or manufacturer manual before visiting

 

How to Avoid Surprises

 

• have the oven model number and a clear photo of the fault to hand

• clear space around the oven and remove dishes or items from nearby worktops

• confirm parking/access for the engineer and whether the oven needs to be pulled forward

• ask the tradie to confirm whether they will bring common bushings or need to order parts

• keep pets away and ensure a power supply is available for testing
