London Oven Cleaners clean ovens in Sewardstone from £77, at a price fixed when you ring. Nothing is packed away until you have checked the lit oven and are happy with it.
Sewardstone has a London postcode, E4, yet it is in Essex: the houses along Sewardstone Road north of the Chingford edge belong to Epping Forest district and the parish of Waltham Abbey.
Gilwell Hill, the 2013 estate on the boundary
Gilwell Hill, on Baden Drive, Powell Drive, King George Way and Cornwall Place, was officially opened in March 2013 on land that had been the kennels for Walthamstow dog track. It is 119 homes with two, three or four bedrooms, including 57 affordable homes and 38 for shared ownership.
The 2021 Census picks the scheme out clearly. In the small census area that takes in those streets, 57 of the 151 households rented from a housing association or the council and 38 were shared owners, so only 43 owned outright or with a mortgage.
Houses built around 2012 usually came with an integrated oven, either under the worktop or at eye level in a tall unit; that is the general pattern for new builds of the period. Ours is the same job either way. Shelves, racks and runners come out and are soaked and cleaned separately; indoors, a technician degreases the oven walls, the fan cover and the inside of the glass by hand. If yours has a self-cleaning setting, the pyrolytic self cleaning guide compares it with a clean by hand.
Older houses on Sewardstone Road
Sewardstone was a manor of its own long before the estate. A rental of about 1235 listed about 80 tenements here, and the old village was a line of houses along the road running south. When the county history was written in the 1960s, the few old houses still standing included Netherhouse on Sewardstone Road, the Gilwell farmhouse in Gilwell Lane and Carrolls at Sewardstone Green, all of the late 17th or early 18th century. Gilwell House became a country estate around 1790; the present Gilwell Park house is early 19th century and is now the headquarters of The Scout Association, whose London E4 7QW postcode sits on the Essex side.
Further north along the road, around Rylston Close and Sewardstone Close, 66 of 77 households lived in a detached or semi-detached house in 2021. Kitchens in older detached houses vary a great deal, from a freestanding cooker to a built-in double, so describe yours when you call.

Parking on each side of the boundary
On the Essex side, the North Essex Parking Partnership runs and enforces street parking for the whole district. South of Gilwell Hill, Yardley Lane, Antlers Hill and Gilwell Close also have E4 7 postcodes but are inside London, in Waltham Forest, where zone times are shown on the signs; those streets are covered by our Chingford page. Whichever side you are on, the nearest sign is the one that counts. We need somewhere for the team to park, plus a working socket and a cool oven.
Sewardstone oven cleaning questions
Which council is Sewardstone under?
Epping Forest District Council, for every address north of the London boundary; Waltham Abbey Town Council is the parish council. The town has its own Waltham Abbey page.
I rent from a housing association at Gilwell Hill and I am moving out. Can you come before the handover?
Yes. Pick a date before you return the keys; free cancellation runs up to 24 hours before the visit if your plans change.
Can a letting agent book it for a house we let?
Yes. We make the invoice out to the agency, take photos for its checkout file if asked, and can pick up keys for an empty house by arrangement.
What happens if I spot a mark at the end?
Point it out. The oven is reassembled and switched on so you can look inside it hot, and any corner you are not satisfied with gets cleaned again there and then.
Reviews from our rounds
Arrived promptly and did a great job cleaning the oven, hob and extractor. They look like new now and for a very reasonable price too.
Once again a great job guys, I will see you in a couple of months.
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.
