My house was built in the late 60s and I think it still has the original oven. It works great but it is very dirty. I would like to get it cleaned. Does anyone know of an oven cleaning service that would do a good job. I would like it to look like new or as close as possible. Make the glass see thru again, etc.

I'm not sure there is a designated oven cleaning service but you can try those folks that do commercial kitchen cleaning with steam to see if they'd give you a price.

I would think they'd likely pass on just doing a household oven, but maybe you can rent or purchase a small steam cleaner and get after it yourself.

If it is that dirty, I'd forget about using Easy Off Oven Cleaner since it will take multiple applications and tons of elbow grease to clean if you can't find someone to do it.


Edited to add this: Just checked on-line and Amazon has a highly rated steam cleaner with several different attachments for various cleaning duties for $149. It's the McCullough Heavy Duty Steam Cleaner---yellow and black machine in the pics.

Just put a pot/tray of water in there and boil the shite out of it. As soon as it is cool enough, spray it down with easy off oven cleaner and follow the directions.

There is a company that offers outdoor/ indoor grill cleaning (St. Tammany Parish). They may be able to do it.

Oven glass IMO is the single worst example of planned obsolescence. Every oven I've ever owned has had a two-pane window in the door, with vents near the top that can allow liquid in, but absolutely no way to clean between the panes. Inevitably, something will spill or boil over, and you'll have a nasty vertical streak on the glass that you have to look at forever. Total BS, and when I get a new oven I'm covering over those fricking vents and we'll just have to see what happens without them.

I feel your pain, but I have been successful several times with disassembling the door to access the inside of the glass. If it bothers you as much as it did to me, you should give it a shot. The door usually comes off easily, and several screws later you can peel it apart.
