5 Signs Your Oven Needs a Professional Clean
Your oven gets used regularly, but how often do you actually give it a proper clean?
A quick wipe around the door and a bit of scrubbing inside can help, but over time grease, burnt-on food and carbon can build up in places that are difficult to reach.
Here are 5 signs that your oven could benefit from a professional clean.
1. There's a lot of burnt-on grease and food
If you can see layers of grease, carbon or burnt-on food inside your oven, a normal household clean may not be enough.
A professional oven clean removes stubborn deposits from the oven interior and the removable parts, helping to get your oven looking clean again.
2. Your oven is producing smoke
If your oven starts smoking when you cook, burnt-on grease and food debris could be the culprit.
Not all smoke is caused by a fault with the oven, so giving it a thorough clean is a good place to start. If it continues to smoke after cleaning, it may be worth having the oven checked for a fault.
3. There's an unpleasant smell when cooking
Does your kitchen smell of burnt food every time you turn the oven on?
Old grease and food residue can create unpleasant smells when heated. A thorough professional clean can remove the build-up that may be causing the problem.
4. You can't remember the last time it was properly cleaned
If you're thinking, “I honestly can't remember when I last cleaned my oven,” it's probably time!
Regular cleaning helps prevent grease and carbon from building up and becoming increasingly difficult to remove.
5. You're avoiding using your oven because it looks so dirty
Sometimes the biggest sign is simply that you don't want anyone seeing inside it!
A professional oven clean can make a huge difference to the appearance of your oven, without you having to spend hours on your hands and knees scrubbing it yourself.
What makes a professional oven clean different?
At Gorilla Clean, we don't just give the inside of your oven a quick wipe.
Where possible, we strip the oven down and remove the removable parts, including the back panel and fan blade, so we can clean areas that are often missed during a normal household clean.
We also don't use harsh chemicals that can potentially damage your oven.
While we're cleaning, we can also keep an eye out for anything that doesn't look quite right. If we spot a potential problem, we'll let you know.
