Cleaned in your kitchen
How we clean an oven
Protect the kitchen
We put sheets down on the floor and worktop and lift out the racks, trays and runners. They go into a heated dip tank to soak while we work on the oven.
Take it apart
We take the door off and split the glass where the model allows, then take out the fan cover and the side runners, so we can reach the grease behind them.
Clean every part
Carbon is scraped off by hand, then a caustic-free gel lifts the grease from the enamel. The door glass is cleaned on both sides of every pane.
Rebuild and test
We put everything back, wipe the outside and turn the oven on to check it heats. There are no fumes, so you can cook as soon as we leave.
What affects the price
The type of oven
A single oven is from £55, a double oven from £75 and a range cooker from £95. The minimum charge is £60. Send us the make or a photo of it open and we confirm the price.
How much carbon there is
Years of burnt-on carbon take longer to scrape off. Very heavy build-up can add an hour, and we tell you before we start if we expect that.
The hob and extractor
A hob or an extractor hood is £20 each when we clean the oven too, so the whole cooking area is done on one visit.
Moving out
An oven clean is part of every end of tenancy clean, so you do not need to book it separately.
Ovens we clean
Single and double ovens
Built-in and freestanding ovens, with the racks, trays and runners soaked in the dip tank while we clean the inside and the door.
Range cookers
Range cookers of all sizes, with two or more cavities, a grill and a wide hob. They take longest, up to 5 hours.
AGA and heat-storage cookers
These must be turned off the night before, so they are cold when we arrive. Tell us the model when you book.
Self-cleaning ovens
A pyrolytic cycle burns off the inside but leaves the door glass, racks, seals and fan cover dirty. We clean those with products that are safe for self-cleaning enamel.
The hob, the extractor and the rest
Gas hobs
The pan supports and burner caps cleaned of burnt-on spills, and the hob top degreased round every burner.
Ceramic and induction hobs
Burnt-on sugar and boil-overs lifted off the glass, then the top cleaned and polished so it does not streak.
Extractor hoods
The hood degreased inside and out and the grease filters cleaned, so it pulls steam and smells out properly again.
The outside
Seals, knobs, handles and the front of the oven wiped and polished, so it looks as clean as it is inside.
Signs your oven needs a clean
It smokes when it heats up
Old grease and food on the base and the fan cover burn every time you cook. That is the smoke and the smell.
You cannot see through the door
Grease builds up between the panes of glass, where a cloth cannot reach without taking the door apart.
Food tastes of old cooking
Burnt-on fat can taint whatever you cook next, especially at high heat.
How often to clean it
Once a year suits most homes. Every 6 months if you cook every day or roast a lot.
Clean it yourself or call us?
Shop-bought oven sprays
Many are caustic. They need gloves and an open window, and the fumes linger, so you may not want to cook straight after.
The parts you cannot reach
The glass between the door panes and the back of the fan cover only come clean when the oven is taken apart.
Racks and trays
Racks soaked in the bath rarely come fully clean. A heated dip tank lifts the carbon while we work on the oven.
When it is worth calling us
When the oven smokes, the door glass has gone brown, or you are moving out. A professional clean saves an afternoon of scrubbing and gets the parts you cannot reach.
Getting the oven ready
Turn it off
Turn the oven off at least 2 hours before we arrive, so it is cool enough to work on. An AGA needs to be off the night before.
Clear the space
Clear the worktop next to the oven and the hob, and take anything stored inside the oven or the grill out.
Tell us the make
Send us the make and model, or WhatsApp a photo of the oven open. It tells us how the door and fan cover come apart.
Someone to let us in
Someone needs to let us in and show us the oven. Many customers go out once we have started.
After the oven clean
Cook straight away
We use caustic-free products and rinse every part, so there are no fumes and nothing to burn off. You can cook as soon as the oven is back together.
Keeping it clean
Put a tray under dishes that bubble over, and wipe spills once the oven has cooled, before they bake on. Wipe the inside of the door after a roast.
Faults we find
We turn the oven on after the clean to check it heats. If an element, the fan or the thermostat is faulty, that needs an engineer, and we tell you what we found.
How a visit works
Point out the problem areas
Show us any stain or mark, and tell us what caused it and whether anything has been used on it already. Some home stain removers set a stain or strip the colour, and that changes what we use.
Water and power
We bring the products and the equipment. We only need running water and a plug socket, so leave both on until we finish.
Pets and children
Keep them out of the room while we work, and off anything we cleaned until it is dry.

Yes. We use caustic-free products and rinse every part, so there are no fumes and nothing to burn off. You can cook as soon as the oven is back together.
Do you clean between the door glass?
