Oven cleaning in the Royal Docks from £77 with London Oven Cleaners: you inspect the lit oven before we leave, and any corner that is not right gets redone first.
The Royal Docks are three docks in a row. The Royal Victoria opened in 1855, the Royal Albert in 1880 and King George V in 1921, and the postcodes behind this page sit around North Woolwich Road, a few minutes' walk from Pontoon Dock DLR station and just north of the Thames Barrier.
Three docks under one name
The name stretches a long way. The Royal Docks Trust, a local charity registered in 1995, works across the Docklands part of Newham between the A13 and the Thames, and its area page names Silvertown, North Woolwich, Beckton, Cyprus, Custom House and Canning Town.
- Royal Victoria Dock
- opened 1855, the first dock built for steamships, with railway lines to the quay
- Royal Albert Dock
- opened 1880, worked by hydraulic cranes, for ships of up to 12,000 tons
- King George V Dock
- opened 1921, for ships of up to 30,000 tons
Three neighbouring places have their own pages: Pontoon Dock, a few minutes' walk north-west of these streets, then Royal Albert and King George V further east.
Flats beside Thames Barrier Park
Thames Barrier Park opened in November 2000, laid out on the site of a former chemical works. Barratt London's Waterside Park went up beside it: about 780 studios and flats of one to three bedrooms, the last phase being Kingfisher Heights, a 13-storey tower with a four-storey block, completed in 2015.
Royal Victoria ward, which includes Waterside Park, is nearly all flats. At the 2021 Census, 90.0% of its households lived in a purpose-built block and 55.1% rented privately. Flats of this kind often have a built-in single oven under the worktop, now and then a double in a tall unit. Racks, trays, side runners and fan cover come out and are soaked and cleaned separately, while the cavity and door glass are degreased by hand indoors.
Moving out of a rented flat
With 53.2% of the ward's households renting from a private landlord or letting agency, the oven is usually on the checkout inventory. For letting agents the invoice is made out to the agency, checkout photos come on request, and keys for an empty flat can be collected by arrangement.

Parking in the Royal Docks East and West zones
Most of Newham's resident parking zones have no Sunday hours. The two Royal Docks zones are different: Royal Docks West and Royal Docks East are both controlled from 8am to 6.30pm, Monday to Sunday, and Waterside Park falls in Royal Docks West on the council's zone map. Without a permit, some bays take payment by phone during controlled hours. Tell us the block name and the floor when you book: the team needs somewhere to park.
Questions from the Royal Docks
Is a Sunday clean dearer?
No. Weekends cost the weekday price. The one difference here is parking, since both Royal Docks zones are controlled on Sundays.
How long does it take in a high-rise flat?
A single is about 90 minutes and a double about 2 hours. A top-floor flat in Kingfisher Heights adds lift trips, so mention the floor.
Can the hob and extractor be done at the same visit?
Yes. A single oven with its hob and extractor, booked together, is £117.
What customers tell us
Very satisfied with the service. They were slightly late at first but I got a call from customer service to let me know, and it was all fine. The oven man, as he called himself, arrived and worked very hard for a couple of hours. My oven now looks like it has never been used.
Nice hardworking lads that always do a good job. We used them for our old flat when moving out and for the new one now, both jobs were done very professionally. My wife is very impressed with the results and would recommend them to friends and family.
Brilliant clean, my oven looks like brand new. A 5 star clean.
