Why Regular Aga Servicing is Essential
Routine Aga servicing maintains efficiency, safety, and extends the lifespan of your cooker. Here are some key reasons why routine Aga service is so important:
Optimal Performance: Poor maintenance can cause uneven cooking and higher energy bills. Regular tune-ups ensure your Aga operates efficiently and at the right temperatures.
Longevity: Addressing small issues early prevents breakdowns, extending your Aga’s life so it can serve your family for decades.
Safety: Routine inspections uncover potential hazards like gas leaks, faulty burners, or blocked flueways, preventing dangerous fumes such as carbon monoxide. Regular expert servicing ensures safe operation.
Cooking Quality: Consistent, gentle heat makes Aga cooking exceptional. Regular maintenance preserves reliable performance, avoiding sudden temperature fluctuations or unexpected surprises.
Considering a full refresh? Sometimes regular servicing may uncover deeper signs of wear or cosmetic deterioration. In such cases, our comprehensive Aga refurbishment service is the ideal solution, offering complete restoration with expert re-enamelling and replacement of vital parts, ensuring your cooker looks and functions like new.
How Often Should You Service Your Aga Cooker?
The frequency of Aga servicing depends on the fuel type and model of your cooker. Following manufacturer guidelines (and our decades of experience), we recommend the general service intervals below for traditional Aga models:
Oil-Fired Aga: Service every 6 months. Oil-fired Agas need more frequent care, over time, oil can cause deposits and soot buildup in burners and flueways, so a biannual service keeps the burner clean and running efficiently.
Gas-Fired Aga: Service once a year. Gas Agas burn cleaner than oil, so an annual service is usually sufficient to check the burners, safety devices, and ensure there are no gas supply issues.
Electric Aga: Service roughly every 12-18 months. Electric models are low-maintenance (with no fuel combustion), but they still benefit from periodic checks of heating elements, thermostats, and electrical connections to ensure everything remains in top shape.
Our experienced team can advise on the ideal schedule for your specific Aga model.

Signs Your Aga Cooker May Need Repair or Service
Even with regular servicing, problems can crop up that need prompt attention. Catching these warning signs early can help prevent expensive repairs later:
Unusual Noises: Popping, hissing, ticking, or rumbling noises often point to burner, fuel, or combustion issues. Don’t ignore new sounds.
Inconsistent or Low Temperatures: Struggling to reach or hold heat, or uneven hotplates/ovens, could signal thermostat, burner, or cleaning issues.
Visible Soot or Smoke: Soot deposits, smoke, or yellow flames mean your Aga needs servicing right away, usually due to poor combustion or blocked flues.
Unpleasant Odours: Smells of oil, gas, or burning are always a red flag. Turn off your Aga and contact us immediately for a safety check.
Poor Cooking Results: If your beloved Aga isn’t cooking as it should, underdone roasts, slow baking, or inconsistent results, your Aga likely needs adjustment or parts replaced.
If you spot any of these issues, arrange a professional inspection promptly. Fast action keeps your Aga safe, efficient, and reliable. If your Aga is beyond repair or facing repeated problems, we also offer a range of reconditioned Aga cookers for sale – each restored to the highest standard for dependable, like-new performance.

We are very pleased with the replacement top for our AGA, the whole process was really easy and professional. They did exactly what they said they would do, on time and with a superb result.
Excellent.
Excellent.

Thank you very much Carol. The new top made the Aga look great! 
Very friendly, very helpful, and lots of advice. The whole process from visiting the showroom, to the installation of our Electrikit Advanced 2-oven Aga in Northern Counties Cream (our choice - though with so many enamel colours to choose from, well.....!}, went extremely smoothly - and ended with a quick run through of operation, and time for questions and answers.
After decades of using all the different types of Aga, and Rayburn, this new one is a whole different kettle of fish and takes a bit of getting used to. But it is definitely the Aga for today, offering lots of flexibility, yet still the delights of cooking in a proper cast-iron oven. To save fuel, one doesn't have to switch the whole caboodle off for the summer, as one might have done in the past - or, if you go away on holiday, it is no different from switching off your immersion heater.
To increase flexibility of use, one can programme the Aga, just as you might your house central-heating/water heating - plus you can put all this on an App on your 'pnone, so you can switch the Aga on and off etc., remotely. However, with just having moved house and, so far, every day being a whirlwind of seemingly essential jobs, we haven't had time to try out all this modern tech.. But, we will!
Thank you, all at John Wray!

Exceptional - a brilliant company to do business with and surely the best AGA company in the north of England (if not nationally). I cannot recommend Stuart and his team enough - from the moment we contacted John Wray Country Stoves, we felt valued as customers and nothing was too much trouble. All of our questions were answered very knowledgeably and the installation process was 100% stress-free (including the removal of our old AGA). Stuart even made a minor repair to my woodburner, even though he and his colleage (another lovely guy) had worked all day to install the AGA and had a long drive back to North Yorkshire .All in all, the best people we've worked with during our house renovations and highly recommended.
A really super job from John Wray Country Stoves and AEM Range Cooker Services converting our gas Aga to the Electrickit Advanced.
It was fascinating to see. Very excited to get to grips with it. I am enjoying the induction hob and I can now turn the oven on from the train home, using the App.
The team at John Wray were so friendly, helpful and straightforward to deal with from first contact through to installation. They and Alex from AEM were a pleasure to have around on the day of the work. I can highly and whole heartedly recommend them.

Good advice pre sale. Installers arrived on time, completed the job efficiently and tidied up after themselves. Couldn't ask for more.

Thank you for your review Charlene, It was a pleasure to fit your stove.

Thank you David, glad your happy with your Aga! 
Thank you to Stuart, Ben and Louise for a great experience installing my much loved stove. I waited a year for this beauty to be installed when I moved house, and then was let down. But Stuart pulled out all the stops and came to my rescue. Louise was on hand to help and support and Ben cleaned up all the mess and made the whole experience effortless. I'm keen to save up for an aga so any advice or support will be appreciated. A great team and an impeccable service.
Aga Servicing and Repair FAQs
How long does an Aga service take?
A standard full service for an Aga cooker typically takes 2-4 hours to complete, depending on the model and the condition of the appliance. Smaller two-oven models on electric may be on the shorter end, whereas a four-oven oil or gas Aga that requires more extensive cleaning can take a few hours. We’ll give you an estimate when you book, and we always allocate sufficient time to do the job thoroughly. Rest assured, our team will never rush an Aga service – attention to detail is key to doing it right.
How much does an Aga service cost?
The cost of servicing your Aga can vary based on the model, fuel type, and any specific issues that need addressing. We provide transparent, honest pricing and will quote you for the service before we begin any work. In general, a routine service has a set fee, but if any replacement parts or additional repairs are needed, we’ll discuss the options with you so there are no surprises. For a detailed breakdown of service pricing or to get a quote for your cooker, please contact us - we’re happy to help you plan and there’s no obligation.
Do you offer Aga repair for issues between services?
Yes, in addition to scheduled maintenance, we handle Aga repairs for any problems that arise.

We stock many common Aga spare parts, enabling us to resolve most issues quickly on the first visit. Whether it’s a burner replacement, a thermostat fault, an oven element failure, or any other repair, we have the expertise to get your Aga working again.
