Hello. I am after some views please.
My wife and I are looking at starting a professional oven cleaning business here in Spain, we have the funds to buy a professional looking van fitted with gas dip tank etc etc. We are not going to be turning up with a box of oven brite and soaking bits in your bath!.
We will visit the home, after placing protective coverings to your surfaces, we will strip down your oven, place all the innards into our special dip tank which cleans all the carbon off. Whilst this is happening we scrub and clean the inside, strip the door down and clean and replace oven bulb if required. When this is all done, we put the whole thing back together and clean up all the mess. The oven will look like new. No caustic chemicals are used and the oven smells lovely. It takes between 1 to 2 hours from start to finish. We can also clean the hobs, extractors, microwaves and BBQ's
We have asked friends whether they would use this service and the response has been very positive - but of course that's friends , so I would like to ask people I don't know so I can gauge perhaps a truer picture. Your honest opinion would be great, also any ideas on marketing or whether we should offer any special offers
So here goes -:
1. Do you think there will be a demand for this service?
2. Would 45 / 55 euros be a reasonable fee to charge to clean the oven
Do you have any further suggestions?
Steve and Sue
