Most of these kitchens fail electrically, and the appliance still looks fine
Control boards, induction coil boards, cooling fans and touch interfaces are what we replace in 32003 — usually on equipment that is otherwise sound. One manufacturer, one van, and the supply measured before anything is condemned.
Doctors Lake Kitchen Co. is an independent repair company working Thermador appliances only, inside 30 miles of Fleming Island. Flat-rate diagnostic visit, credited in full toward the repair if you go ahead with the work.

Storm season, and a housing stock that ages all at once
Roughly 68 thunderstorm days a year in this part of north Florida. Surge and near-strike transients are the single most common cause of control-board failure we see.
Matthew in 2016, Irma in 2017 and Helene in 2024 each left parts of this area without power for more than a day. The calls that follow an event like that do not all arrive at once — a control board or an inverter compressor that took a hit often runs for weeks before it quits.
Much of Fleming Island was built out between the mid-1990s and the late 2000s, so the built-in appliances fitted at construction are now fifteen to thirty years old. Whole streets reach that age at once, which is why one kitchen often produces three calls in a year.
Built-in equipment has to leave its opening before most of it can be worked on. Cabinet width, top clearance, panel weight, the door casing and the route out of the room decide how a visit runs, so we ask about them before we arrive rather than on the doorstep.
A near-strike does not have to trip a breaker to do damage. It couples a transient into the branch circuit that lasts microseconds — far too short for a breaker, which responds to sustained overcurrent, but long enough to take out a low-voltage board. The tell is two appliances on one circuit going down in the same afternoon, and it is why we measure the supply under load before condemning a part.
What we take on
Six appliance families, one manufacturer. Nothing else rides in the van, which is why the right board is usually already in it.

This is a kitchen company. What we repair is built-in Thermador equipment inside the house: built-in and column refrigeration, cooktops and rangetops, wall and steam ovens, dishwashers, range hoods and downdrafts, and wine storage columns. Heating, air conditioning, heat pumps, air handlers and the ductwork that serves them are off this sheet — we do not install them, service them or quote them. A range hood is a kitchen appliance and we work on it; the heating and cooling system it shares a house with is a different trade, and an HVAC contractor is the right call for that.
The ground inside the radius
A parcel gets its own sheet only when there is something true about that ground and nowhere else — a build-out year, a circuit vintage, a shoreline.

Pricing in full · Warranty terms · Questions · About the company
What does a Thermador repair cost in Fleming Island?
The visit is $80. Beyond that, the honest answer is a band and not a number, because the same symptom has two or three candidate causes and they do not cost the same. The bands that fit this page are below. Parts and labour together, the work on this sheet lands between $440 and $2,360. The exact number is set down in writing once the fault has been read, and nothing is ordered until you have seen it.
| Repair | Parts and labour |
|---|---|
| Diagnostic visit, credited to the repair | $80 |
| Refrigeration column sealed system | $900–$2,360 |
| Control board or touch panel | $440–$1,050 |
What is worth knowing before you call?
- What am I committing to by booking a visit?
- One flat $80, and nothing else. That covers the drive, the time on site and the whole diagnostic sequence, and it comes straight off the bill if you go ahead with the repair. No trip charge, no fuel surcharge, no premium rate for a Saturday.
- What will the repair itself come to?
- A band, and an honest one: $180–$540 for a sensor or thermostat, $270–$730 for a fan or motor, $440–$1,050 for a board or touch panel, $900–$2,360 for a sealed system. Which band yours lands in is settled at the door, in writing, before a part is ordered.
- Are you an authorised Thermador service centre?
- No, and we will not imply it. This is an independent company that chose one brand so the van carries the right board more often than not — our decision, not a factory appointment. An appliance still inside its original manufacturer warranty should go to the manufacturer first.
- Is this a heating and air conditioning company?
- No. Off this sheet: heating, air conditioning, heat pumps, air handlers and their ductwork. Doctors Lake Kitchen Co. repairs built-in Thermador kitchen appliances, and that is all we take on here. If your air handler, heat pump or ductwork is the problem, an HVAC contractor is the right call and we would rather say so now than take a visit fee for it.
- What is covered after the repair?
- 90 days on labor, 365 days on parts, on every repair we complete. Genuine OEM parts only. Surge and lightning damage is excluded, as it is everywhere.
What owners said after the visit
4.6 out of 5, across 73 customer reviews. Each one below is a single visit, in the words of the person who paid for it.
The touch surface was registering presses nobody had made. He lifted the glass, found moisture wicking under the edge from a failed seal, dried it out and resealed it. No phantom presses in the weeks since.
Garrett W.
One zone was running at maybe half its power while everything else behaved normally. He read the coil board rather than guessing, replaced it, and boiled the same pan on all four zones so I could see they matched.
Horatio W.
The door had started dropping open instead of staying where I left it. A cable had frayed through on one side. He replaced both cables and the springs together so the tension stayed even, which made sense to me.
