OVEN CLEANING FAQS

This depends on the appliance type and condition. We’ll provide an estimate when booking, but as a rough guide most appointments take between 1 and 3 hours: 

  • Single oven: 1–2 hours 
  • Double oven: 2–3 hours 
  • Range cooker: 3–4 hours 
  • Aga: varies depending on size 

No. We only use non-caustic, non-toxic and environmentally friendly cleaning products in your home. Our specialist cleaning solutions are designed to effectively remove grease, carbon and burnt-on food without harsh fumes or unpleasant odours in your home. 

Our dip tanks are kept in our van and do contain some chemicals. However, these are thoroughly washed off from your appliance using fresh water from our van, so no chemical residue is left. 

No. For obvious health and safety reasons we need your oven to be completely cold before we start cleaning. Please avoid using it for a few hours before your appointment.

Yes. Once we have finished cleaning and reassembled all removable parts, your oven is ready to use immediately. We will always test your appliance is in full working order before we leave your premises. 

Yes. Where the oven design allows, we can dismantle the door and clean between the glass panels, removing trapped grease, stains and debris. 

Absolutely. We always use protective dust sheets and work carefully to ensure your kitchen is protected throughout the cleaning process. We also clean up after ourselves and leave your kitchen tidy before we leave. 

This depends on how often you use your oven. Most households benefit from professional oven cleaning every 6 to 12 months, depending on usage; 

  • Every 6 months for heavy use 
  • Every 9–12 months for average household use 
  • Before Christmas or other busy entertaining periods 
  • Before moving home or putting your property on the market

BBQ CLEANING FAQS

Yes. We clean freestanding gas and charcoal BBQs throughout Surrey, West Sussex and South East London.

No unfortunately we cannot clean built in BBQs. Due to the cleaning process, amount of water used to clean a BBQ and the nature of our professional products used, we cannot safely guarantee your patio area. 

However, if we are there with you cleaning your oven, we are more than happy to clean your BBQ racks from your fixed BBQ at the same time in our dip tanks. 

This depends on the type of BBQ and condition. We’ll provide an estimate when booking, but as a rough guide: 

  • Small BBQ: 1–2 hours 
  • Large BBQ: 2–3 hours 

Our aim is to remove grease, carbon and food residue and leave your barbecue looking its best. A full BBQ clean may include: 

  • Cooking grills and grates
  • Burners
  • Heat plates and flame tamers
  • Grease trays
  • Drip trays
  • Internal cooking chamber
  • Lid and hood
  • Control knobs
  • Side shelves
  • Exterior surfaces

Regular cleaning can help improve hygiene, performance and longevity of your BBQ. It can also reduce smoke during cooking. Most of our customers book a BBQ clean: 

  • Before summer starts 
  • After the summer season 
  • Before hosting a special event 
  • Before winter storage 

We will take care of everything, but preparation on your part is simple: 

  • Ensure the BBQ is completely cold 
  • Disconnect gas bottles where possible 
  • Remove any food, utensils or accessories 
  • Make sure we have reasonable access to the barbecue 

Absolutely. As we only work with freestanding mobile BBQs, we usually work on a grass area. Alternatively, we move the BBQ to an area that will not affect your patio.  

We also clean up after ourselves and leave your garden and BBQ area tidy before we leave.
