Westbury on Trym is a largely residential suburb with a mix of Edwardian semis, 1930s detached houses, and some modern apartment blocks. Many kitchens in these properties have fitted ovens that have been in place for years, and the grease accumulation that builds up over that time goes well beyond what any supermarket spray can address.
The technician begins by laying down protective coverings around the oven area before inspecting the appliance. All removable components, including wire racks, grill pans, and the inner door glass, are carefully removed and immersed in a portable heated dip tank. The citric acid solution in the tank works to loosen carbonised grease and burned-on food residue without needing aggressive scrubbing.
While the parts are soaking, the interior of the oven is worked through methodically. The roof, back wall, side panels, and base are cleaned using appropriate tools for each surface.
- Interior surfaces: Every internal panel cleaned and degreased, including corners and the base underneath any elements.
- Dip tank soak: Removable parts treated in heated citric acid solution to dissolve carbon without abrasion.
- Glass polishing: Door panels cleaned inside and out, leaving the glass clear.
- Eco-safe products: Citric acid-based throughout, with no caustic ingredients or harsh chemical residues.
