The young chap that came to ours today…

The young chap that came to ours today (3/3/23) was friendly and very courteous.
Best of all he did a terrific job in cleaning our oven (which was in desperate need of attention!) and also the hob/extractor fan.
SO impressed.
Thank you Ovengleamers!

Do not use them

Do not use them.
I was recommended to use this company by Everhot. Since recommending them and since having used them I understand from Everhot they are no longer recommending them.
You would expect the operative who came from the Calne branch to bring his own sheets to protect the area around the Everhot and to place the oven doors on which are removed in the cleaning process. The operative removed my hand towel hanging on the Everhot rail and put this on top of the work unit and put both oven doors on this.
He used a Brillo pad to clean the Everhot which at will he then placed on top of my incredibly expensive granite work top. It looks like marble and had it been would have now been left with a pink stain on it.
The operative spent more time telling me what he couldn’t clean than what he could clean.
It took two hours.
The first thing I noticed were fine scratches on the stainless steel that surrounds the top of the Everhot which I assume were done by the Brillo pad.
The brass rings at the back of the hot plate were still dirty as were both aluminium oven shelves. I used my mail to push off the grease left. I videoed this and sent it to Ovengleamers so there could be no dispute.
I contacted Everhot who told me these should have been cleaned thoroughly. The hinged part of the hot plate lid was also left yellowish. Everhot again told me this should have been properly cleaned.
I called Ovengleamers immediately. The only help they have offered is to send another operative back. Having told me I had already had their best operative out who has scratched my 7 month old Everhot why would I want that. I am disappointed by Ovengleamers lack of responsibility for £209 of so say cleaning and I wouldn’t say Everhot have done themselves any favours either in resolving this situation.
I had an amazing chap James who cleaned my Miele ovens prior to the arrival of the Everhot. He was from Ovencleaners and will now work with him and hopefully with some advice from Everhot to clean my new oven as well as he used to clean the old Miele.

Hi Sarah,

My reply edit: February 2024. - I've just cleaned your Everhot for you. You booked your Everhot in with us again for it's yearly clean, we couldn't believe it but we decided I would do the clean. You were lovely. You loved the clean I did, and said you would use us again. You didn't mention any of the things you mentioned in this review. I couldn't see any scratches on the polished strip....

*************************************
We are still the only oven company to be recommended by Everhot themselves. To gain this recommendation we have had to jump through hoops to prove that our process is the best method to clean Everhots. As a network we are cleaning lots of Everhots every week.

Your review is the first complaint we have ever received.

I looked at this job and your Everhot was very impressively cleaned. Your actual words to our OvenGleamer when he finished was "I can't believe it, I'm over the moon!" You signed our acceptance box on the Jobsheet to say that your were happy with the clean.

You later phoned the office and sent us a video saying that we had scratched the shiny polished front plate of your hob, not cleaned one of the shelves and missed a couple of other spots. These were: a spot of grease on one of the vent covers, a spot of grease just inside of the oven, and dirt on your granite top which edged your Everhot. The shelves we sometimes have problems cleaning are the alloy shelves - and in your case we couldn't clean one of them 100%. This is unusual and our OvenGleamer did point this out to you.

We offered to send someone back straight away. You didn't want this. We eventually offered to send me back, the owner of the business, but you didn't want that either. The last communication from you by email was "if you don't give me a full refund then I am going to tell everyone on Social Media how bad you are."

We refused to give you a refund as we thought everything was done correctly and you have now given us this review.

There are some inaccuracies in this review. You mention about protecting the area around the Everhot - we do carry ground sheets and cloths to protect surfaces. Also as we genuinely do use Eco products in the home we don't have to worry about any products falling on the floor as they won't harm any surface and we clean up at the end of the job.

Our OvenGleamer did ask you if he could use your hand towel to put the clean doors on and you said "yes that is fine; it's an old one". The Brillo stain could have been wiped off. He told you about the things that wouldn't come up 100% with our clean - and you were happy at the time with this. We would have warned you about not being able to get the burnt staining on the main inner lid off.

After receiving your video we checked the photos of your Everhot taken before we cleaned and the area was extensively scratched before we started cleaning with some larger deep scratches which was surprising for an Everhot which was only 7 months old. As part of our clean we polished this strip and we removed a lot of the existing scratches but the deeper ones still remained.

Your local chap James maybe brilliant at cleaning an old Miele but to clean an Everhot requires the right knowledge and processes to clean the cooker and the right dip tank setup in the van.

We use an electrically dip tank which means all the removal stainless steel parts of the Everhot, such as door liners, hob square, oven bottom plates, can be dipped in our tank and made perfectly clean without the need to scrub them. James uses a gas fired burner to heat up his water dip tank and because of that can't get the perfect finish that we do and to get the parts clean. To get them perfectly clean he would have to scrub then=m with a steel scourer scratching them in the process. They also use a Potassium Hydroxide based cleaning product in the home which could potentially very badly damage the Everhot's powder coated finish.

So disappointed with this company

So disappointed with this company, I booked an oven clean about three weeks ago for 9:00am however by 9:20am no representative had arrived, I telephoned the person who was due to come and the phone went straight to voicemail. By 11:00am still no call back and no one had arrived to clean my oven. I rang the central booking number and was told I would need to be called back by the person who deals with my area, after about twenty minutes I was called back and when I asked where my oven cleaner was I was told nothing had been booked out in the diary. There was no mention of sorry for your inconvenience or any phone call at all from the representative I left the message with at 9:20am, needless to say I shall not be booking a reappointment with this unprofessional company.

Hi Nigel. I can't find your details on our system. And your review doesn't ring true as our office admin team have access to every OvenGleamer's schedule and would have been able to see the status of the job and would have been able to confirm it. They would have phoned up the local OvenGleamer to find out where they were and then phoned you back, and booked in another appointment if necessary. Please would you contact the main office on 0800 45 82 357 with your details, where you live etc. to pass on to me - Graham Rogers, as we need to know where you live so we can look into this.

Avoid at all costs – OvenGleamers, Pill, Bristol

What is there to say apart from please please do not use this business!! Granted there are some glowing reviews which I wish I had ignored! They are the lucky ones as God forbid if anything goes wrong, such as the engineer breaking your oven door! Don’t expect that they will go out of their way to resolve a problem of their making. Not only was an apology lacking, there was no suggestion of a refund or goodwill gesture. Offering a second-hand replacement without any kind of warranty or reassurance that the item would meet industry regulations, and you can forget taking away the broken oven, that’s definitely not their problem! Hard lesson to learn that you should never pay the full cost upfront before receiving any service, as you’ll be lucky to see your money again. And if you think this sounds bad, please also factor in that I arranged this service for my elderly father who’s almost 90 and who does not need the hassle or stress that this has caused! Shameful isn’t it? Suggesting that he make a claim for the broken oven on his household insurance, really? Correct me if I’m wrong, household policies do not cover damage caused by a third party so this would be tantamount to being dishonest and illegal. Although we have taken some advice from Citizens Advice in terms of what consumers are entitled to according to the Consumer Rights Act, OvenGleamers are very good at claiming that they are fulfilling their legal obligations but how is that right if you’re left out of pocket with a broken oven! After much to’ing and fro’ing, we have at least managed to get the original cleaning fee refunded but my father is still left with a broken and unsafe oven. Our only option is to purchase a brand new one. I’ve dealt with lots of businesses over the years and can honestly say this is one of the worst experiences I have ever had. I wouldn’t go near this business again with a barge pole and if you want to save yourself any hassle and money, I wouldn’t recommend you do either.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your experience with our oven cleaning service. We apologise for falling short of your expectations and for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Our normal response to this sort of accident is to get a replacement part within 24 hours and then fit the part the next day. Sometimes this may take longer as some manufacturers aren't so quick. These accidents are rare and unfortunately yours happened the day before we stopped for Christmas holiday so we didn't have time or the man power to react quickly.

The handling of glass is a learnt skill in professional oven cleaning that we train all of our OvenGleamers in and because of this glass handling accidents are very rare.

With your oven, as it was an old oven - I'm guessing at least 30 years old, we were unable to get the door glass as it was obsolete.

In our 19 years of business, only three instances have occurred where we were unable to locate parts for an oven. And on those occasions we have found a very good oven replacement and had it installed within a few days.

So our next step was to look for similar oven that we could replace yours with. We found a nearly new secondhand top of the range AEG oven which would have been a very good replacement, as it had exactly the same features, and arranged for an electrician to fit it. It would have been cleaned and PAT tested.

We did this between the Christmas and New Year when we were on holiday.

You were unhappy with this and wanted us to replace the oven with a brand new equivalent to your John Lewis model.

We were unable to do this as our obsolete parts policy only covers the replacement of the whole oven with a secondhand or new oven up to the value of cheapest second hand modern oven equivalent.

We gave you a refund to the value of what the door would have cost us to replace which incidentally was exactly the same amount I would have had to spend to buy and fit the replacement oven.

We then told you the best way for you to get a brand new modern equivalent to your 30 year old oven might be through your own house insurance as some policies do provide cover for tradesman accidents in the home.

Excellent service- very impressed

I hadn’t cleaned my oven for many months but Dean wasn’t daunted! He arrived on time, stayed for several hours cleaning my double oven until it looked like new. He was polite, friendly and extremely professional. I was really impressed- this is the second time I’ve used this company and thoroughly recommend them without reservation

DO NOT USE!

Didn't turn up on time.
Didn't manage expectations.
Phoned up to be told rep would be VERY late.
Rep eventually phoned me to say he would be an hour.
Two hours later he phoned to say he's not coming, as he can't be bothered.
Then got an email saying Your OvenGleamer has arrived!
Thank goodness I refused to pay in advance!!!

UPDATE 24/2/2023
1. Informed by Trustpilot that if I don't respond, my comment will be DELETED in 2 days - without my consent!

2. Not sure what else there is to discuss. My area code is EX34 9SA. The chap who was going to come and do the oven clean complained that admin had organized his workload so that there was too much driving involved to get from the job prior to mine. But this was only part of our 3rd brief conversation.

I lost interest at this point. Not my problem but it was made into my problem, as I'd been waiting most of the day for him to turn up!

Hi David, I've tried searching for you everywhere - you aren't on our Database and on any Social Media platforms. As you now have given your postcode I have checked the voters registry database and you aren't listed. We don't even cover your area. Our franchisee who did cover the postcode,which is in Ilfracombe, stopped in December 2017. You left his review in May 2022! So a pure fake review.

EXCELLENT very impressed

Arrived on time, did an excellent job for a very reasonable price. Was impressed how they took the oven apart and have cleaned it to such a point that it literally does look like new. I was a little concerned about any chemical fumes affecting my partners budgies but you wouldn't have noticed a thing.

After completion, I was asked to check I was happy with it before signing, and I was more than happy. It's so clean, I don't want to use it. They also left my kitchen spotless - you wouldn't even know they had been.

I highly recommend them and WILL be using them again.

Professional service and an outstanding outcome

Thank you so much to Ron for an outstanding, professional service. I had both ovens and an extractor fan cleaned and I am delighted with the outcome. Everything looks like new. Ron worked in a Covid safe way and cleaned up thoroughly afterwards. I was also thrilled that all the cleaning products were organic and eco friendly and nothing went down my drains. I will be using them again.

Be careful.

Gave our NEF combi oven a nice clean but the door has never been flush since - catches when you close it. With Covid arriving we just put up with it.... Now pandemic is easing I have asked if they can come back to sort.... they're not interested. Not impressed and we won't be using them again.

Loved OvenGleamers. I found it very easy to book my oven clean - the person on the phone was lovely. The man who cleaned it was excellent. He cleaned my oven, job and extractor. He did a super job. Would recommend.

AVOID

AVOID. They broke my oven and refused to pay for the repairs. Awful customer service, dishonest in their behaviour. AVOID THEM!!!!

Oven Gleamers were told not to remove the oven light and not to clean around it, this was ignored which resulted in the light fitting being knocked and blowing the fuse on the oven.

The oven was not working fine when the cleaner left. He had not switched the oven on to check it was working.

Someone from their customer service team phoned me the next day and I told her I had not checked the oven yet as I went away after having the oven cleaned.

I did not return until the 3 days later and that was the first time I checked the oven. When I called to report the fault I was told that they would cover the cost of the electrician call out and you gave me the number of the company you used do it could be charged to you.
The reason the oven was not working was because the lamp cover had been moved so it caused it to trip whenever switched. Whether this was done intentionally or not is irrelevant as it was still their cleaner which caused this and was specifically asked not to clean near it.
Oven Gleamers did not honour their word in saying they to cover the cost of the electrician call out and to refund the cleaning cost.

This was all just a few days before Christmas so the worst time to be without an oven!

Hi Asme,

We think this review is unfair as when you booked in your oven with us you told us on the phone that there was a fault with your oven. It would stop working if the light fitting was knocked. So I'm guessing if you knocked your light fitting it shorted out and blew either the fuse in the oven connector plug or the fuse on your house fuse board So your oven was faulty when you booked in with us.

We actually cleaned the oven one week before Christmas on the 19th December 2019.

You were very happy with the clean. We checked to ensure your oven was working when we had finished. We have a signature completion box on our job sheet that lists the checks that had been carried out, and the full clean check list. You signed that box to say you agreed that everything was done correctly and that your oven was working.

Then a few days later you rang to say you'd got a problem with the oven not working. We gave you the details of a local oven repair company to fix it. And told you we'd cover the cost if we got a report from him to say that it was our fault.

And as you say in your review the problem with your oven was that a fuse had blown and I would guess that the most likely cause of that was the already existing problem with your oven light fitting shorting out the oven or tripping the cooker fuse on your house fuse board. And as you had fixed this previously you would have known how to fix it.
