How Much to Clean an Oven in the UK?

Want your oven cleaned professionally? Then you’ll probably pay between £50 and £100 in 2025.

The smaller and cleaner your oven is, the lower the bill. A particularly big cooker that hasn’t been touched in a while will cost more.

• Single oven cleaning costs between £50 – £70.
• Double oven cleaning costs between £60 – £80.
• Range cooker (around 100cm) cleaning costs between £80 – £100.

Other things matter too, like your location and whether the oven has heavy carbon deposits.

If it isn’t that easy to get to, that’ll take more time. Nearly all quotes include the cleaner’s products and dip-tank service, so the good news is, you don’t need to supply anything.

If you want add-ons like hobs, extractors, and BBQs, you'll normally pay a tad less for these when done on the same visit. So, be sure to ask for a bundle price.

Have a specialist cooker, like AGA or Rayburn? You'll most likely be quoted more than a standard single or double oven. That's because these take longer and need specialist tools.

Oven Cleaning Prices

Oven cleaning prices that you're quoted by professionals will typically include the cost of oven cleaning materials — so this isn't usually something you'll need to worry about.

The table below shows what oven clean prices typically are for different types of ovens (standard single, double, and range).

As you might expect, oven cleaning costs will be higher if your oven is bigger, as more of the professional cleaner's time is required.

Extra Oven Cleaning Costs

Most oven cleaning prices will only include cleaning of the appliance itself. However, many oven cleaning professionals will offer extra services to clean specific additional items.

Here are some examples:

Some of these extras will only be available if you're taking multiple services together because it makes it worth the oven cleaner's time to come out to the job.

Plus, you might find that some items are already included in your oven cleaning price, so you may not have to pay separately for these.

The cost of cleaning specialist ovens like AGAs is more expensive mainly because it takes longer and specialist tools are needed. You should also double-check that your chosen oven cleaner will cover specialist models if you have one.

What’s Included in a Professional Oven Clean?

Professional cleans involve quite a lot more than a brisk spray and wipe!

For instance, they'll strip out the shelves, trays, and (often) the door glass. What's more, they'll soak the parts and scrub around seals, fans and vents - all without wrecking the enamel.

Here’s what the process of having your oven cleaned looks like:

Before the Job

• Short inspection — They inspect seals, elements and any problem spots, then protect worktops and floors.
• Plan agreed — Verify what’s included (racks, door glass, fan cover) and roughly how long it’ll take.

During the Job

• Strip-down — Shelves, trays and often the door glass come out for a soak in a heated dip-tank.
• Deep clean — Cavity, behind seals and hard-to-reach corners are degreased without scratching the enamel.
• Rinse and wipe — Everything’s rinsed, dried, and the inside is wiped back to a clean, residue-free finish.

After the Job

• Reassemble and test — Parts go back in, then a short empty heat-up is recommended once it’s dry.
• Final tidy — Surfaces are wiped, waste is taken away, and you’ll get any aftercare tips you need.

Can I Clean an Oven Myself?

DIY oven cleaning is fine for light splashes on an oven door, or if you're just looking to clean the shelves with non-scratch pads and mild product. But heavy, baked-on carbon around the fan, behind seals or on liners is where most people make a mistake.

Consider the following:

• Strong gels can scorch enamel, cloud glass and stain stainless.
• Pyrolytic self-clean runs at very high heat, so if door seals are tired or shelves won’t come out, you risk warped parts or cracked glass.
• Spraying liquids onto elements, fans or ignition points is a fire and shock hazard, and the fumes aren’t great in a small kitchen.
• Taking doors apart is pretty complex – drop a pane, and it smashes.
• Gas ovens bring even more of a risk. If it’s particularly grubby, time-consuming or you’re in a rental and need it flawless, give this experiment a miss.

Checklist: Hiring an Oven Cleaner in the UK

Thinking of booking an oven cleaner?

Here’s a quick checklist so you know what you’re getting:

• What’s included in the price? Does the quote cover racks, trays, door glass, dip-tank, seals, fan cover, and the fiddly bits behind the knobs?
• Which products will they use? Low-odour, water-based cleaners are best and won’t harm enamel, seals, or worktops.
• How long will it take? Get a clear time window and an idea of when it’s safe to cook again.
• Are they insured? If something breaks while they’re taking it apart, you’ll want public liability cover in place.
• Any extras worth adding? Hobs, extractors, and BBQs cost less when added to the same visit. So, ask for a combined quote.
• Do they have recent reviews and photos? See if they have recent customer photos or feedback on their MyJobQuote profile.
• Is access and mess covered? Check whether or not they protect floors and worktops and leave your kitchen tidy.
