Overview

How it works
Step 1
Floor sheets and worktop covers down before anything is lifted out of the oven.
Step 2
Removable parts go into the heated tank in the van, off your worktop and out of your sink.
Step 3
Non-caustic gel, dwell time, then a scrape and rinse — no fumes left behind for the kitchen.
Step 4
Door split where the design allows so the film between the panes actually comes off.
Step 5
Reassembled, wiped down and switched on with you there so you know it works.
Why choose us
Most London postcodes have next-day availability, and end-of-tenancy jobs are regularly covered within 48 hours. Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City) is the nearest station, so a E1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 51% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in E1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Stepney gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, which is what a 78% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Stepney actually produces.
Our technicians carry £5m public liability, work to COSHH sheets for every product on the van and use non-caustic systems, which is what most London managing agents now insist on in occupied blocks.
One technician and a van-mounted dip tank; two for commercial ranges or where a lift booking limits the time on site. Narrow terraced streets, estate parking permits and stair-only access in low-rise blocks.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single oven | £65 | 60–90 min | Shelves, racks and the fan cover go into a heated dip tank in the van; the cavity is cleaned by hand with a non-caustic gel. |
| Double oven or range cooker | £95 | 1.5–2.5 hrs | Two cavities, two sets of door glass and usually a heavier carbon load on the lower oven. |
| Oven, hob and extractor bundle | £120 | 2–3 hrs | Booked together the crew only pays one London parking charge and one visit, so the bundle is cheaper than three separate calls. |
| Ceramic or induction hob only | £35 | 30–45 min | Burnt-on sugar and protein needs a scraper and polish, not a chemical soak — quick, so priced against the minimum charge. |
| Aga-style or commercial range | £160 | 3–4 hrs | Cast-iron ranges and commercial units are stripped panel by panel and re-seasoned rather than dipped. |

Scope
We are over the moon with our one-off deep clean, the team (led by Mo, i think he said his name was!) turned up early and were done within 4 hours, we can't believe how much they got done in that time. They went absolutely above and beyond and cleaned inside cabinets/the fridge even though… Read in full →
Really easy & straight forward website to get services booked in, with lots of choice for all cleaning required. Good communication from the customer services team.

Booked a oven clean (Sheffield) and they did an amazing job. I had tried to clean my oven two days before and got that mad with it I was thinking about buying a new oven. They did an absolutely amazing job on it. It looks brand new. I didn’t get the cleaners name but I… Read in full →

Working in Stepney
Stepney E1 is mainly Victorian and social-housing-led: 78% of homes here are flats and 22% are houses, across 6,862 households (ONS Census 2021).
With 26% private renting against 23% owner-occupied, most E1 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Expect often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 51% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first behind the plaster in E1. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Stepney gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, which is what a 78% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Stepney actually produces is the fault we are called back to undo.
Stepney sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — green squares, Victorian terraces and the Ocean estate east of Whitechapel — which is why a E1 quote is not a Tower Hamlets average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: narrow terraced streets, estate parking permits and stair-only access in low-rise blocks. Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City) is the nearest station, and one technician and a van-mounted dip tank; two for commercial ranges or where a lift booking limits the time on site.

Single oven starts at £65 in Stepney, with 26% of E1 homes being privately rented, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked on Tower Hamlets bookings. Cavity count and carbon depth set the price, not floor area — a neglected single oven can take longer than a maintained double on the Stepney rounds, with this being a short walk from Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City).
5 hours from £95. The time goes into the dip tank and the hand-cleaned cavity, not into the van journey around Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City), with Tower Hamlets parking rules in play.
Yes — with 78% of Stepney homes being flats, we work on floor sheets and dip removable parts in the van in Stepney, with 6,862 households on this patch, so nothing is soaked in a kitchen sink shared by other appliances.
Regularly. 26% of E1 homes are privately rented, with 51% social-rented stock nearby, and a carbon-free oven is on most London Borough of Tower Hamlets inventory checklists for Stepney (E1) addresses. Book it alongside the end-of-tenancy clean or on its own on E1 jobs.
Repairs or replacement parts — we flag a failing seal or element, we do not fit one; Pyrolytic self-clean cycles across E1 — and 23% owner-occupation locally, with this being London Borough of Tower Hamlets territory, which we do not run on your electricity; Removal of built-in units to reach behind the appliance; Rust treatment on units already corroded through. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Stepney E1 price you agree is the price you pay on the Stepney rounds, with a median age of 30 in this neighbourhood.
All three. With 26% of Stepney privately rented and 23% owner-occupied, roughly half the E1 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door around Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City) — and 78% of homes here being flats, with 51% social-rented stock nearby.
St Dunstan's Church, Stepney is the marker we route to on this side of Tower Hamlets, with 26% of E1 homes being privately rented, and narrow terraced streets, estate parking permits and stair-only access in low-rise blocks. A E1 slot added to an existing Tower Hamlets round usually lands the same week rather than the next in this 78% flats neighbourhood, with this being a short walk from Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City).
