Oven Cleaning Franchise - Training - Business - AGA

Member of the British Institute of Cleaning Science

OvenGleam has been corporate members of the British Institute of Cleaning Science for seven years now, I set it up when I set the business up. I have recently become a Member of Institue myself - you need to have been an Associate member for ten years to get full membership  so nothing to be sneezed at. 

 

Oven Cleaning Berkshire Business Launch

Here are some photos of the OvenGleam oven cleaning Berkshire business launch that we did for Simon last month. We drove up to Berkshire and put up our stand on a very cold November day. We tried to give away mulled wine, with no interest, tried to get people to enter our prize draw, which went okay and we gave away balloons - which was the best way to attract attention so was our star attraction. In all things went very well and Simon got a lot of work from the day, the store was very happy to have us and we are going back again at the end of January to see if repeat showings make any difference. We had some interest from the fireman - see the fire engine in one of the pictures - when they turned up to deal with the fire alarm in the store going off.

 

So in all the business launch was a good experience and we look forward to doing many more next year.

Home Staging Your House for Sell

If you have been trying hard to sell your house in the current climate and have now decided to either stage your house for sell yourself or hire the services of a home staging company please don't forget that your house will need a good house clean after you have removed your junk and depersonalised everything. You need to have your oven, hob and extractor sparkling too. The oven especially needs to be clean as lots of people will look inside it as they look around the kitchen. All the drips inside the glass of the oven door especially need to be cleaned to make all the difference in the presentation of your house.

A New Oven For The Price Of An Oven Clean

We often get people who are redesigning their kitchen, and therefore are getting new cabinets, who want a new oven to go with their new kitchen. Rather than removing the range cooker, AGA, or built in oven and paying out for a new one they get the old one cleaned by us to look like new. Hence a big saving on the cost.

We often get asked if we know of any local kitchen companies and we do often cleans for the kitchen company called 'Old Image' who build quality handcrafted new period kitchens that look old.

Oven Cleaning Partnerships

I find part of the challenge of running a successful oven cleaning company is helping my clients solve problems in other parts of their lives. On many an occassion we are asked if we know of any good window cleaners, domestic cleaners, carpet cleaners etc. So a while ago we started forming partnerships with these types of companies for the convenience of our clients. Our current top two recommendations are:

'Time For You Domestic Cleaning'.  A domestic cleaning company which provides a regular cleaning and ironing service as well as those all important one-off, end of tenancy Spring cleans. The great thing about this partnership is that many of the products on the market for domestic oven cleaning can be potentially harmful to cleaners if used incorrectly so we are able to carry out professional oven cleaning on their behalf. Time For You Domestic Cleaning is in fact a national franchise currently with over 100 franchisees across the country and still growing.

'KwikDry' is our local  carpet cleaning company based in Bristol and run by a lovely man called Alan. Many a time he has helped our clients out at short notice providing a swift professional carpet cleaning service.
