Carbon on oven glass is baked-on sugar and fat, not dirt, which is why a cloth and washing-up liquid never touch it. We dissolve it instead. Monster Cleaning has cleaned ovens across Kingston upon Thames since 2014, from KT1 flats off Clarence Street to the Victorian terraces out towards Surbiton, and we wipe down after ourselves before we go.
Last updated April 2026. Prices and the same-day method below are current for the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.
Here is the short version. We clean ovens in Kingston upon Thames from £77, soaking the parts and hand-cleaning the cavity in your kitchen, so you cook the same evening.
That capsule is the whole offer in one line. The rest of this page is the detail: what each oven type costs, how the clean actually works, why Kingston’s hard water matters for your hob, and what we do when something goes wrong. If you would rather just book, the number is 0333 555 2076.
What oven cleaning costs in Kingston
Flat prices, no survey, no quote-by-email runaround.
- Single oven
- £77
- Double oven, or a single with a separate grill cavity
- £110
- 90cm range cooker
- £143. These are the wide ones with two cavities and five or six burners that are common in the knocked-through kitchens around Canbury.
- Two-oven AGA
- £143. It takes the best part of a morning because the cast iron has to be done by hand, cold, with the right wadding.
Add-ons are priced to bolt onto an oven clean:
- A hob is £23 to £28, depending on whether it is a wipe-down ceramic or a gas hob with cast trivets and burner caps that come off.
- An extractor hood is £28, filters included.
- A microwave is £22, inside and out, turntable lifted.
We will tell you the total before we start, not after.
One thing on pricing honesty: a single oven means one cavity. If you call it a single over the phone and we arrive to a double, the price changes on the doorstep, and nobody enjoys that conversation.
Count your cavities before you ring and the number we quote is the number you pay.
How we clean it, and why same-day
The bit that makes the difference is the soak.
- We pull out the shelves, the side racks, the trays, and the fan cover, and leave them in hot water and a professional degreaser, normally on a sheet in your kitchen.
- While they soak, the cleaner works on the cavity by hand: the roof, the back wall, the door glass, the seal.
- By the time the cavity is done the removable parts are lifting their own grease, and a rinse and dry finishes them.
Carbon on oven glass is baked-on sugar and fat, not dirt, which is why a cloth and washing-up liquid never touch it.
Two things matter in a small flat:
- First, your kitchen
- Supermarket oven gel gets sprayed everywhere and hangs about for hours, which is grim in a small KT1 flat with one window. We work by hand, keep a window open and wipe down before we leave.
- Second, your oven
- Strong products can dull aluminium trays and attack the printed markings on control knobs if they creep where they should not. So the cleaner keeps them on the carbon and off the knobs, and lets the soak do the slow work on the parts.
Why same-day
Same-day use is the real selling point and it is simple physics. Nothing has to be left overnight before the oven goes back on. We wipe down, everything goes back in, we run the fan for a minute to clear any last damp, and you can put a tray in within the hour.
People booking before a dinner, or a viewing, or a Sunday roast care about this more than anything else.
It is not magic. Self-clean pyrolytic ovens still get the same treatment because the pyrolytic cycle bakes spills to ash but leaves the door glass and the bottom edges untouched. We do those by hand too.
Kingston kitchens and the hard-water problem

Kingston has hard water, and that is a limescale problem that shows up on your hob and your extractor as much as anywhere.
- The supply
- Properly hard: Thames Water puts it around 282 parts per million, well over the 200 mark that counts as hard, because the water comes off the chalk and clay that runs under this whole stretch of old Surrey.
- Gas hobs
- The burner caps and the trivets get a crust that is part grease, part scorched spill, part mineral.
- Ceramic hobs
- You get cloudy spotting that looks like scratches but wipes off once the scale is dealt with.
- Extractors
- Steam rising from pans carries that hardness up into the extractor, where it bakes onto warm metal next to the grease, and a filter that should slide out can end up glued in. We see it constantly across the borough.
So when we do a hob or an extractor here, degreasing is only half the job. We descale as well, which is why those add-ons are worth doing at the same time as the oven rather than leaving them. A clean oven under a furred-up extractor looks half-finished.
The housing
The housing stock shapes the work too:
- The new riverside blocks near Canbury Gardens and the bridge tend to have integrated single fan ovens and induction hobs, quick jobs.
- The period homes towards Norbiton and Surbiton, the Victorian terraces and Edwardian semis, more often have a freestanding range or a double, sometimes a second oven retrofitted into a chimney breast.
- New Malden, with its long-established Korean community, throws up a lot of high-use gas hobs and serious extractor grease from daily cooking, and those are some of the most satisfying cleans we do.
Different kitchens, same chemistry.
What we clean, and what we do not
We clean the whole oven, and we are straight about what a clean cannot do.
- The oven cavity
- The door, including between the glass panes where the door design allows it
- All shelves and racks
- The fan cover and fan
- The grill, the trays and the broiler pan
- Where it is a range, every cavity and every burner
We only open the door to reach the inner glass where the design allows it, and we say so when it does not.
Add the hob, the extractor and the microwave and the kitchen’s hot zone is done in one visit:
- the hob and its trivets are scrubbed clean
- the extractor gets degreased and the filters cleaned or swapped
- the microwave is done inside and out
What we do not do
- We are not a repair service, so if your fan motor is failing or an element has gone, we will tell you, but we cannot fix it.
- We do not move heavy freestanding ranges out single-handed if there is a tight gas connection behind, for safety.
- We will not promise to lift a scratch or a stain that is etched into the enamel, because that is damage, not dirt, and no honest cleaner can polish it out.

Booking and what happens on the day
Call or email, and tell us:
- your postcode
- how many oven cavities you have
- whether you want the hob, extractor or microwave doing as well
That is enough for us to give you a fixed price and a slot. To book, call 0333 555 2076 or email office@monstercleaning.com, and if it is out of hours leave a message with your postcode and we ring back the next working day.
Parking and access
Most of Kingston is an easy run for us, and parking in the residential streets off the one-way system is usually fine.
The controlled zone around the town centre near Clarence Street and the Cromwell Road bus station can be tight, so a quick word about access helps.
On the day
The cleaner arrives with every tool and product the job needs. You do not need to empty cupboards or prep anything. Keep pets out of the kitchen while the door is open and the parts are out, and that is the only ask.
- Single oven
- Roughly an hour and a half
- Double or range
- Nearer two and a half hours
- AGA
- A morning
When it is done we run the fan, reassemble everything, and show you the inside before we go. Then you cook in it.
Frequently asked questions
How much is oven cleaning in Kingston upon Thames?
A single oven is £77, 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 is fixed before we start.
Can I use the oven the same day you clean it?
Yes. We rinse and wipe everything down, so once everything is back in place and we have run the fan for a minute you can put a tray in within the hour. Same-day use is the main reason people choose this method.
What do you use to clean the oven?
We use professional oven products, applied by hand rather than sprayed about. The racks soak separately, a window open for a while clears any smell, and we keep the product off aluminium trays and printed control knobs.
What gets soaked, and what is done by hand?
The removable parts are soaked: shelves, side racks, trays, the fan cover and the grill pan. The cavity itself, the door glass and the seal are done by hand while those parts soak. You get the whole oven back, every part of it.
Do you clean the glass between the oven door panes?
Where the door is the kind that comes apart safely, yes, we split it and clean the inner glass where the drips collect. On doors that are sealed or risky to dismantle we tell you straight rather than forcing it and cracking the glass.
Do you clean hobs and extractors as well?
Yes, as add-ons to an oven clean. A hob is £23 to £28 and an extractor is £28 with filters included. Because Kingston water is hard at around 282 ppm we descale as well as degrease, which matters for furred-up burner caps and extractor filters.
Why does Kingston’s hard water matter for my oven and hob?
The supply here runs around 282 parts per million off the local chalk and clay, which is firmly hard. That scale builds on hob trivets and bakes into extractor metal alongside grease, so cleaning here means descaling as well as wiping, if you want it to last.
Can you clean an AGA or a range cooker?
Yes. A 90cm range is £143 and a two-oven AGA is £143. The AGA takes a morning because the cast iron is cleaned by hand, cold, with the correct wadding, rather than soaked, and that care is built into the price.
Do you offer a re-clean guarantee?
Our 48-hour re-clean guarantee is for end of tenancy cleans only, so oven cleaning does not carry one. If a patch concerns you, tell us before we leave or call 0333 555 2076.
Which parts of the borough do you cover?
All of it: KT1 in the town centre and Canbury, Norbiton, Surbiton, New Malden and out to Tolworth and Chessington. We are based at 75 Shakespeare Avenue, Feltham, TW14 9HU, and we cover the whole Royal Borough.
Do I need to do anything before you arrive?
No prep. You do not need to empty cupboards or buy anything. Just tell us your cavity count and any add-ons when you book, give us a word about parking near the town centre, and keep pets out of the kitchen while the oven is in pieces.
