KitchenAid worm gear replacement, gasket and re-grease
For a grinding or worn mixer: we fit a new worm gear and gasket, clean out all the old grease and repack the gearcase with fresh food-grade grease, in one visit. One strip-down costs less than booking the repairs separately.
Does this sound familiar?
- Grinding or whining plus an oil leak underneath
- A mixer that has never been serviced and is starting to feel rough
- Any mixer heading into heavy bread baking or a busy holiday season
What the repair includes
- Full strip-down of the mixer head
- New worm gear fitted
- Old gasket replaced
- Complete clean-out and fresh food-grade grease
- Reassembly, speed check and a test run under load
Almost every mixer that arrives with a grinding noise also has grease that has broken down, because the two problems have the same cause: age and heat. Handling them in one visit means one strip-down instead of two, which is why this costs less than the two repairs priced separately.
This is the service we recommend for a mixer that has never been serviced, for anything being brought back into regular use, and for anyone heading into a heavy baking season with an older machine.
You get the mixer back cleaned out, freshly greased, fitted with a new worm gear and gasket, and test run before it leaves us.

Common questions
How long does the repair take?
We give you a realistic date when you book it, and we keep to it. If you are working around a specific event, tell us and we will say honestly whether it can be done in time.
How do I know if my mixer needs a new worm gear?
If you hear grinding, or the motor runs while the beater stutters or stops, the worm gear is probably worn. If you also see an oil leak, this service covers both. If you are not sure, book the diagnostic and we will tell you honestly what it needs.
Got a mixer that needs looking at?
Text a photo or send a repair request and we will arrange a pick up or drop off that suits you. You will know the price before any work starts.
