Westminster · W1 · Oven cleaning
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Soho fitters · Fixed written pricesOven cleaning in Soho W1, Westminster, from £65. Post-production studios, restaurants and above-shop flats packed into a Georgian grid, which is why our W1 quotes account for pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default. You get a fixed price in writing, an insured fitter and a tidy finish.
Overview
Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around Tottenham Court Road, oven cleaning here covers supply-free fitting from £65. With 98% of Soho's 4,257 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in W1 shape the slot length we hold.
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
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in Soho, with metal stud partitions between rooms — which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in W1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in W1, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — the pattern behind 4,257 households inside the W1 neighbourhood.
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. Pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default.
Most London postcodes have next-day availability, and end-of-tenancy jobs are regularly covered within 48 hours. Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a W1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
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 Soho
Census 2021 puts Soho at 4,257 households with a median age of 33.9. The Georgian and early Victorian stock is renter-heavy, which is why 2% houses and 98% flats need different handling in W1.
Private renting sits at 52% and owner-occupation at 20%; the first group books oven cleaning at short notice, the second plans it.
Soho substrates run to dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in Soho, with metal stud partitions between rooms — which is why Westminster City Council kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in W1, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — the pattern behind 4,257 households inside the W1 neighbourhood is the mistake that costs a W1 customer twice.
Two streets can behave very differently in Soho: post-production studios, restaurants and above-shop flats packed into a Georgian grid. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Soho sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default. Nearest station is Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line), 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 Soho, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked around Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line). Cavity count and carbon depth set the price, not floor area — a neglected single oven can take longer than a maintained double on W1 jobs, with this being Westminster City Council territory.
5 hours from £95. The time goes into the dip tank and the hand-cleaned cavity, not into the van journey across W1, with Westminster parking rules in play.
Yes — with 98% of Soho homes being flats, we work on floor sheets and dip removable parts in the van on W1 jobs, with Westminster parking rules in play — and 53% one-person households here, so nothing is soaked in a kitchen sink shared by other appliances.
Regularly. 52% of W1 homes are privately rented, with 20% owner-occupation locally, and a carbon-free oven is on most Westminster City Council inventory checklists around Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line). Book it alongside the end-of-tenancy clean or on its own across W1.
All three. With 52% of Soho privately rented and 20% owner-occupied, roughly half the W1 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on W1 jobs, with 98% of homes here being flats.
Carnaby Street and Golden Square is the marker we route to on this side of Westminster, with 28% social-rented stock nearby — and 52% of W1 homes being privately rented, and pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default. A W1 slot added to an existing Westminster round usually lands the same week rather than the next on W1 jobs, with 2% of Soho homes being houses.
Most London postcodes have next-day availability, and end-of-tenancy jobs are regularly covered within 48 hours on the streets near Carnaby Street and Golden Square. Soho sits close to Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line) for Soho (W1) addresses, with 2% of Soho homes being houses, so we can usually add a W1 job to an existing Westminster round at short notice.
