Ring us about an oven in Surrey and a trained engineer turns up in a van with a heated tank in the back, not a cleaner with a can of spray and a cloth. We take the oven to pieces on your kitchen floor, soak the racks and panels in the van, hand-clean the cavity, and put the whole thing back together so you can cook on it the same evening.
Last updated April 2026. The figures on this page are what we charge across the county, not a starting-from price that swells when we arrive.
Oven cleaning across Surrey starts from £77, single oven up to an AGA, using a non-caustic dip-tank and a same-day re-clean guarantee.
We are Monster Cleaning Ltd, Companies House number 9919639, cleaning since 2014 from an office at 255 Upper Richmond Road West, SW14 8QS. Surrey is a settled part of our week, run down the A3 and round the M25, so it is not a postcode we tack on the end of the diary as a favour.
What an oven clean costs in Surrey
Here are the prices, set out plainly, because nobody should have to phone three firms to find out what a clean costs.
A single oven is £77. A double oven, which is what most Surrey kitchens turn out to have once you actually look behind the door, is £110. A 90cm range cooker is £114, and a two-oven AGA is £143, because an AGA is a slower, gentler job that takes the best part of a morning to do honestly. The hob runs £23 to £28, depending on whether it is a flat ceramic top to wipe down or a gas hob with cast trivets and burner caps that all come apart and soak. An extractor with its filters is £28. A microwave, freestanding or the built-in combination sort, is £22.
Most people book two or three of these together. A double oven with the hob and the extractor done in the same visit is the usual Surrey booking, and it saves you time because the van only has to find a space on your road the once. The number you read here is the number you pay. No call-out fee, no quote on the doorstep, no salesperson working out what your kitchen looks like it can afford.
The dip-tank, and why caustic is the wrong tool
The part that does the real work lives in the van.
When the engineer arrives, the oven is switched off and left to go cold if it has been on. Then the removable parts come out: the shelves, the side runners, the fan guard at the back of the cavity, the base plate where there is one, and the trays. All of it goes into a heated tank of non-caustic solution out in the van, where it soaks while the rest of the job happens. Soaking is what lifts carbon off the bars of a rack, which is the bit you can scrub at the sink for an hour and never win.
Why does non-caustic matter, when a caustic-soda dip is cheaper to run? Two plain reasons. Caustic eats into aluminium trim and dulls vitreous enamel over the years, and the fumes hang about in a small kitchen for the rest of the day. Our solution lifts the baked-on fat without attacking the metal, and because there is nothing harsh to gas off, you can switch the oven on and cook your tea that same evening. That same-day point is the whole reason we work this way.
Soaking is what lifts carbon off the bars of a rack, which is the bit you can scrub at the sink for an hour and never win.
One genuine exception. Catalytic and self-clean liner panels, the rough panels in the back and sides of some ovens, must never be scrubbed or dipped, or you wreck the coating that does the self-cleaning. We leave them be and clean around them. A quick word at the door if your oven has them saves a ruined panel and a good deal of bad feeling.
Surrey hard water, and what the chalk does to oven glass
Surrey has a water problem that shows up on your oven, and it is worth understanding before you book.
Most of the county sits on the chalk and greensand of the North Downs, the ridge that runs from the Hog’s Back near Guildford across to Box Hill above Dorking, and rainwater picks up calcium and magnesium as it soaks through that rock. Depending where you are, the mains comes from SES Water, Affinity Water, Thames Water or South East Water, but the story is the same across all of them: very hard, commonly around 280 to 300 parts per million of calcium carbonate. You meet it first in the kettle and on the shower screen. On an oven you meet it on the inside of the door glass and on the runners, where a film of scale settles on top of the grease, and a normal degreaser slides straight off it because it is aimed at the fat, not the mineral sitting over it.
We clean for both the grease and the scale on every job, which is the reason the door glass comes back clearer than any weekend wipe-down ever leaves it. It is also why the steam-clean cycle on a newer oven never quite finishes the job in this county. The mineral content is simply too high; the steam loosens the surface grease and stops there, and people end up ringing us anyway after running the cycle twice and seeing no real difference.
Oven glass in this part of the country needs a different approach to oven glass in a soft-water town.
A county of different kitchens
Surrey is not one kind of kitchen, it is a dozen, and the oven changes with the house.
Out in the older parts of Guildford, Godalming and Farnham you get Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian terraces where the kitchen has usually been knocked through to the back and fitted with a freestanding range or a big built-in double. The commuter towns strung along the railway, Woking, Walton-on-Thames, Weybridge and Esher, run heavier to interwar semis and post-war family homes, and the bigger detached houses near the river around Weybridge and Cobham keep a range cooker or an AGA more often than you would expect for the South East. Reigate and Epsom over on the east side of the county sit on the same chalk and throw up the same period stock. And then there is everything Surrey is building at speed, the new flats going up around Woking town centre and Staines-upon-Thames, where a compact single oven and an induction hob are the norm and the job is quick for us and cheap for you.
We have cleaned in all of them. The recurring headache out in the period terraces is the alcove the old cooker is wedged into; in the new town-centre flats it is the parking and the lift up to the fourth floor with the tank kit.
An AGA in a Cobham farmhouse kitchen is a different machine again, two cast cavities that hold their heat, which is exactly why it has its own price and its own slot in the diary.
Everything we clean, single oven to AGA
Most appliances in a domestic kitchen, we will take on. This is the common run of work and what each part costs.
- Single oven, £77. One cavity, one door, the racks and trays dipped. The standard job.
- Double oven at £110, two cavities, often a main oven and a grill or a smaller top oven, and you get both done.
- Range cooker, 90cm, £114 for the wide freestanding type with two cavities and a big hob.
- A two-oven AGA is £143. These hold heat, take longer, and we clean the enamel and the lids by hand instead of soaking them in the tank.
- Hob, £23 to £28. Gas trivets and caps lift out and soak; ceramic and induction get the burnt sugar taken off without scratching the glass.
- Extractor and filters, £28. The metal mesh filters go in the tank, which is the only thing that genuinely degreases them.
- Microwave, £22, freestanding or the built-in combination type.
If your kitchen has a combination that is not on that list, ring and ask. We would rather tell you straight whether we can do it than have you book the wrong thing and be disappointed.
One honest limit. We do not haul heavy built-in appliances out of housing that has been tiled or sealed in, because that risks damaging your kitchen, and we will say so on the phone instead of turning up and refusing on the day.
Who we are, and the re-clean guarantee
We are Monster Cleaning Ltd, Companies House number 9919639, and we have been cleaning since 2014. The office is at 255 Upper Richmond Road West, SW14 8QS, an easy run down to the Surrey patch on the A3 and the M25.
I will be straight about the reviews, because you will find them whether I mention them or not. Our Trustpilot sits at 3.1 out of 5 across 128 reviews. That is not a glowing number and I am not going to dress it up. Most of the lower scores are about scheduling on our wider domestic side, not the oven work itself, and sorting that out is exactly why we changed how we book and confirm jobs. Oven cleaning is where we are at our best, and the guarantee is there to back it.
The guarantee is simple. If you are not happy with the oven once we have finished, say so to the cleaner before they leave or ring the office, and we come back and re-do it free. No quibbling. I would far rather put it right on the spot than read about it in a one-star a week later.
Booking across Surrey, and the day itself
Booking is a phone call. Ring 0333 555 2076 or email [email protected] with your Surrey postcode, what you want cleaned and roughly when, and you get a flat price from the list above on the spot, plus a morning or afternoon slot rather than a pointless eight-hour window.
A single oven takes about an hour and a quarter. A double with a hob and an extractor is closer to two hours, and an AGA is most of a morning, so we book those in on their own. The engineer brings the tank, the solution and dust sheets, and lays the sheets over your floor and worktop before anything comes out of the oven, because dipping wet parts is a messy job and your kitchen should be left cleaner than we found it.
You do not need to be in for the whole thing, as long as we can get in and out and you are happy with the oven before we go. Pay by card or bank transfer once it is done, with a proper invoice by email. Same-day use is the point of all of it: roast a chicken that night if you fancy it.
If you are moving out rather than just keeping on top of the kitchen, the oven is the single thing an inventory clerk in Surrey checks first, and a missed one is a textbook deposit deduction. We can clean it as part of a full move-out through our end of tenancy cleaning in Surrey service, or do the oven on its own. If the carpets took a beating too, our carpet cleaning in Surrey team works the same patch, and households who want the kitchen kept on top of all year use our domestic cleaning in Surrey. You can also read how we approach the appliance itself on our oven cleaning service page.
Then we are out of your way.
Frequently asked questions
How much does oven cleaning cost in Surrey?
A single oven is £77, a double oven £110, a 90cm range cooker £114 and a two-oven AGA £143. Add a hob at £23 to £28, an extractor at £28 or a microwave at £22. These are flat prices across the county, with nothing added when we reach your door.
Can I use the oven the same day you clean it?
Yes. The dip-tank runs a non-caustic solution rather than caustic soda, so there is no overnight gassing-off and no chemical taste in the first thing you cook. Switch it on and roast your dinner that same evening.
Why does Surrey hard water make my oven worse?
Most of Surrey sits on the chalk and greensand of the North Downs, so the mains runs very hard, commonly 280 to 300 parts per million. A film of scale settles on the door glass and the runners on top of the grease, and an ordinary degreaser slides off the mineral because it is aimed at the fat underneath. We clean for both.
Which parts of Surrey do you cover?
We run an oven round right across the county, from Guildford and Godalming in the west through Woking, Walton and Weybridge, out to Reigate and Epsom in the east. If you are not certain your postcode is on the round, ring the office and ask.
Do you clean AGA and range cookers?
Yes. A two-oven AGA is £143 and takes most of a morning, so we book it on its own and clean the enamel and the lids by hand rather than dipping them. A 90cm range cooker, the wide sort common in extended Surrey kitchens, is £114.
What is the dip-tank, and why does it matter?
It is a heated tank in the van filled with a non-caustic solution. The shelves, side racks, fan guard and trays come out and soak in it while the cavity is cleaned by hand. Soaking is the only thing that lifts baked carbon off the bars of a rack, which you can never scrub clean at a kitchen sink.
Will the brown haze come off the oven door glass?
Usually, yes. On most ovens the door is a double or triple pane that we take apart to reach the haze trapped between the layers. That trapped film, plus the limescale on the outer face, is what makes an oven look dirty after you have already wiped the inside.
Can you clean the hob and extractor at the same visit?
Yes, and most people do. A hob is £23 to £28 depending on whether it is a flat ceramic top or a gas hob with cast trivets and burner caps that all lift off. An extractor is £28, which includes degreasing the metal mesh filters in the tank.
How long does an oven clean take?
About an hour and a quarter for a single oven. A double with the hob and extractor added is closer to two hours, and an AGA is most of a morning. You get a sensible arrival window, not a useless all-day one.
What if I am not happy with the result?
We come back. Every oven we clean carries a re-clean guarantee, so if the cavity or a tray is not right when you check it, tell the cleaner before they leave or ring the office and we put it straight. The oven work is the part we are most confident standing behind.
Do you clean ovens for end of tenancy in Surrey?
Yes. The oven is the first thing an inventory clerk checks and a missed one is a classic deposit deduction. We can clean it on its own or fold it into a full move-out clean. There is more on our end of tenancy cleaning in Surrey page.
