When it comes to professional house cleaning, kitchens are one of the most scrutinized areas by homeowners, guests, and inspectors alike. Within the kitchen, ovens and stoves are critical touchpoints — not only for hygiene, but for perception of overall cleanliness.
At Ana Valenzuela Cleaning Services in Santa Fe, NM, oven and stove cleaning is not treated as a quick wipe-down. It follows a structured, professional-grade process designed to remove grease buildup, restore surfaces, and protect appliances — whether in a private home or a vacation rental property.
Professional Oven Cleaning: More Than Just Appearance
A properly cleaned oven impact:
- Food safety
- Odor control
- Appliance longevity
- Guest satisfaction in vacation rentals
Our Professional Oven Cleaning Process
1. Removal and deep cleaning of oven racks
Oven racks are removed and washed separately using Simple Green, a professional degreasing agent. For heavy grease buildup, Oven Grill cleaner is applied to break down stubborn residue effectively.
2. Interior oven cleaning with professional products
The interior of the oven is treated with Oven Grill, allowing the product to activate for approximately five minutes. This dwell time is essential to loosen baked-on grease without damaging the surface.
Afterward, the interior is wiped thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove residue safely and evenly.
3. Drying and finishing for a spotless result
Once dry, surfaces are detailed using Windex to eliminate streaks and restore a clean, neutral finish. This step ensures the oven interior looks bright, clean, and professionally maintained — especially important in vacation rental turnovers.
4. Exterior oven and handle detailing
The exterior of the oven and the door handle are cleaned using paper towels and Windex. If the handle or exterior is metallic, Stainless-Steel cleaner is used to restore shine and remove fingerprints without scratching.
Professional Stove Cleaning: Precision and Care
Stoves accumulate grease faster than most kitchen surfaces. Improper cleaning can damage components or leave residue behind.
Our Stove Cleaning Method
1. Grate removal and degreasing
Stove grates are removed and washed with Simple Green. When grease buildup is heavy, grates are left to soak in the sink for several minutes to allow the degreaser to work effectively.
2. Disassembly and cleaning of the stove base
The stove base is carefully disassembled and cleaned using Simple Green. For extremely greasy components, parts are soaked to ensure complete grease removal without abrasive scrubbing.
This process restores cleanliness while protecting the appliance’s functionality.
Why This Level of Detail Matters
For homeowners, this approach protects expensive appliances.
For vacation rental owners and Airbnb hosts, it directly impacts:
- Guest reviews
- Cleanliness scores
- Repeat bookings
- Overall property reputation
Guests may not describe every detail — but they notice when appliances are immaculate, odor-free, and professionally cleaned.
