The bay-fronted semis around Danson Park nearly all have a 1930s kitchen layout, and that means an oven sitting in a tiled recess where grease hides in the back corners. We clean ovens in those kitchens most weeks. This page tells you what we charge, what we actually do, and how the racks and the cavity get cleaned on a Bexleyheath cooker.
Last updated April 2026. Prices and method current for Bexley, DA6 and DA7.
Here is the short version. We clean ovens across Bexley from £77 for a single oven, with the racks soaked and the cavity done by hand, so your cooker is ready to use the same day.
That is the answer most people want before they read on. The rest is detail: the full price list, the difference between a single and a double, what an AGA costs, and the bits people forget to ask about, like the extractor and the hob. Monster Cleaning Ltd has been doing this since 2014. We are a London firm, and our office is at 75 Shakespeare Avenue, Feltham, TW14 9HU.
What oven cleaning costs in Bexley
Prices are flat and we tell you the figure before we arrive, so there is no surprise on the doorstep. What you pay depends on the cooker, and these are the same rates whether you are off Broadway in the middle of Bexleyheath or up one of the quieter roads near Bexley Village.
- Single oven
- £77. One cavity and one door.
- Double oven
- £110. Two cavities, usually a main oven plus a smaller top oven or a combined grill.
- Range cooker, 90cm
- £143. Ranges are common in the bigger kitchen extensions people have added to the 1930s houses around here, the wide ones with a five-burner top.
- AGA, 2-oven
- £143, because the enamel and the cast-iron lids take real time to bring back. AGAs turn up less often in Bexley than they do further out into Kent.
- Hob
- £23 to £28, depending on whether it is gas, ceramic or induction
- Extractor hood
- £28, grease filters and all
- Microwave
- £22
If you are not sure which you have, send us a photo when you book and we will price it properly rather than guess.
Add-ons are cheap to do at the same visit because the cleaner is already there with the kit out. Done together with the oven, those small jobs save you booking a second appointment.
How we clean, and where shop pastes go wrong
The thing that actually shifts baked-on grease is heat plus a soak, not scrubbing.
- The racks, the side runners and the trays come out of your oven and go into a hot soak, set up in your kitchen in most homes.
- They sit in a professional degreaser that lifts carbonised fat off the metal while the cleaner works on the cavity by hand.
- Everything is rinsed, and the cavity is wiped down.
- Because we clean up after ourselves, the oven is ready to switch on and cook in as soon as we have finished and put it back together.
You do not need to run an empty cycle first, though airing the room for a bit helps if there is a smell.
Where shop pastes go wrong
Shop paste is harsher than it looks. The tinned oven pastes you buy are mostly caustic soda, which is brutal stuff:
- it burns skin
- it gives off fumes in a closed kitchen
- on an aluminium tray it can leave a dull grey stain that never comes back to a shine
Our teams keep their products off aluminium and rinse every tray before it goes back.

There is a second reason we like it for Bexley kitchens specifically. The water here is hard. Thames Water supplies this part of south-east London off the chalk, and hardness sits in the rough band of 250 to 350 milligrams of calcium carbonate per litre, which is hard by any measure.
That scale builds up on oven door glass and on the inside of a kettle alike. The soak and the hand work on the cavity cut through the greasy film and the mineral haze together, which is why a door that looked permanently cloudy usually comes back clear.
One honest note on results. A very old enamel cavity that has been baked dark for fifteen years will come up clean but not brand new, because the enamel itself can be stained under the grease.
We will tell you that on the day rather than promise a miracle. Most ovens, though, look years younger by the time we leave.

A single oven takes most of a morning. Here is roughly how it goes when we turn up at a house in DA6 or DA7.
- First we put down sheets, because oven cleaning is messy and nobody wants black grease on a kitchen floor.
- The cleaner pulls the racks, trays and runners and sets them soaking.
- While those soak, the inside of the oven gets done by hand: the back wall, the roof where the grill element sits, the fan housing, the seal around the door, and the door glass, inside the panes too where the door design allows, which is where most of the brown haze lives.
- By then the racks have soaked, so they get a final clean, a rinse and a dry, and everything goes back where it came from.
- We test the oven works before we leave. Light, fan, elements, the lot.
Many doors come apart. Where the door design allows, the inner glass panel slides out, and the gap between the two panes is exactly where grease and condensation collect into that foggy layer you cannot reach with a cloth. We clean both faces and put it back.

- Fitted kitchens between Bexleyheath and Welling
- The 1930s and interwar houses that fill these streets, the bay-fronted semis with the tiled porches, tend to have the oven built into a fitted run of units rather than free-standing. That can mean a tight squeeze either side, so we are careful pulling panels out and back without scraping your cupboards. It is the sort of thing a local cleaner who has done dozens of these kitchens just knows to watch for.
- Parking off Pickford Lane and around Danson Park
- Usually fine on the residential roads, which makes carrying the kit in and out easy.
- Parking near the Broadway
- Closer to the Broadway and the covered shopping centre it gets busier. If you are right in the town centre, let us know about parking when you book and we will plan around it.
Hobs, extractors and the rest
The oven is the big job, but the grease does not stop at the oven door. The two things worth adding while we are there are the hob and the extractor.
- Hob, £23 to £28
- Gas hobs collect burnt-on spills around the burner crowns and under the cast-iron pan supports. Ceramic and induction tops are flatter but get a film of caramelised splatter that needs a proper cream and a scraper, not a wipe. The price depends on which you have and how baked-on it is.
- Extractor hood, £28
- The one people forget. The metal grease filters above the hob soak up vaporised cooking fat for years, and a clogged filter both smells and stops pulling air. We take the filters out, soak them, and wipe down the canopy. After a long stretch of frying it makes a real difference to how the kitchen smells.
- Microwave, £22
- If yours has a turntable crusted with splatter and a roof you have given up on, it cleans up at the same visit for not much.
Plenty of Bexley customers book the oven on its own and that is completely fine.
But if the whole cooking area has been bothering you, doing the oven, hob and extractor in one go is the sensible way, and you only pay one call-out of the cleaner’s time.
Booking and access
Booking is a phone call or an email. Ring 0333 555 2076 or email office@monstercleaning.com, tell us the cooker and roughly where you are in Bexley, and we will give you a price and a slot.

- Access to the kitchen, a working power supply, and a tap. That is it.
- What we bring
- Everything else, down to the cloths.
- Do you need to be in?
- Not the whole time once we have started, though most people potter about.
Our Google rating is 4.7 out of 5.
If you are moving out rather than just keeping on top of things, a sparkling oven is one of the items landlords and agents check first, so it is worth pairing oven cleaning with a full end of tenancy cleaning in Bexley visit.
We also do carpet cleaning in Bexley and regular domestic cleaning in Bexley if you want the rest of the home seen to at the same time. For the detail on how we clean any cooker, there is more on our oven cleaning service page.
We cover the whole borough:
- Bexleyheath
- Welling
- Bexley Village
- Barnehurst
- Crayford
- Sidcup
- the streets in between
Wherever your kitchen is in DA6 or DA7, the oven gets the same treatment and the same price.
Frequently asked questions
How much is oven cleaning in Bexley?
A single oven is £77 and a double is £110. A 90cm range cooker is £143 and a two-oven AGA is £143. Add-ons are a hob at £23 to £28, an extractor at £28, and a microwave at £22. The price depends on the appliance, not your address in Bexley.
Can I use the oven the same day you clean it?
Yes. The parts are rinsed and the cavity wiped down, so there is nothing left behind that needs to burn off. Once everything is back in and we have tested the oven, you can cook in it straight away. There is no need to run an empty cycle first; just air the kitchen if you notice a smell.
What is wrong with shop-bought oven paste?
Caustic soda burns skin, gives off fumes in a closed kitchen, and can leave a dull grey stain on aluminium trays. Our teams use professional oven products with care: the racks and trays soak, the cavity is done by hand, and everything is rinsed before it goes back.
How are the racks cleaned, and where?
The racks, trays and side runners come out and soak in a professional degreaser, usually set up right in your kitchen, while the cleaner does the inside of the oven by hand. We clear up and wipe down before we go.
Do you clean the oven door glass?
Yes, both panes where the door design allows. Some doors let the inner glass slide out, and the gap between the two panes is where the brown haze builds up. When yours does, we open the door, clean both faces, and refit it. That is usually what brings a cloudy-looking door back to clear.
Do you cover all of Bexley?
We cover the whole borough, including Bexleyheath, Welling, Bexley Village, Barnehurst, Crayford and Sidcup, across DA6 and DA7. The price is the same wherever your kitchen is. If parking near the Broadway is tight, just tell us when you book.
Can you clean the hob and extractor at the same time?
Yes, and it is cheaper to do them together because the cleaner is already there. A hob is £23 to £28 depending on type, the extractor hood with its grease filters is £28, and a microwave is £22. Booking them with the oven saves a second visit.
Will an old oven come up like new?
Most do. A very old enamel cavity that has been baked dark for years will come up clean, but the enamel underneath can be stained, so it may not look factory-fresh. We will tell you honestly on the day. The large majority of ovens look years younger by the time we finish.
How long does it take?
A single oven takes most of a morning. A double, a range or an AGA takes longer because there is more metal to soak and more cavity to clean by hand. We will give you a rough time when we book so you can plan your day around it.
Do you offer a re-clean guarantee?
Our re-clean guarantee is for end of tenancy cleans only, so it does not apply to oven cleaning. If the finished oven concerns you, ring us on 0333 555 2076. Our Google rating is 4.7 out of 5.
