What factors affect the cost of cleaning your oven?

The cost of oven cleaning services can vary. Here are the factors that might increase or decrease the price:

  • Task complexity, urgency, and duration

  • Appliance age

  • Date of last cleaning project

  • Any extras (like stovetop, rangehood, BBQ cleaning, double oven) 

  • Available equipment or supplies

  • Your location/suburb

  • Weekend or holiday rates

What are the standard inclusions of oven cleaning?

Booking an oven cleaner might take 1-2 hours, depending on the size and condition of your oven. Your oven cleaner will usually include the following services:

  • Set up protective sheets to keep the surrounding area clean

  • Remove all trays and interior racks and clean them with appropriate products

  • Remove doors (if they can be removed) and clean them inside and out

  • Clean the interior oven cavity

  • Replace all parts correctly

  • Clean the surrounding area and put any rubbish in the bin

  • Test the oven to make sure it works perfectly

Oven cleaning prices don’t usually include extras, like cleaning your grill, stovetop, and rangehood, so if these need attention, you need to request them specifically. Your cleaner might also be able to help with fridge cleaning, floor mopping, or whole house cleaning.
