This is a heartfelt appreciation post for Alan Saddler at South Lakes Oven Cleaning
For a long time, I’ve wanted to learn how to clean these stunning ovens, and in just four days, I can honestly say I’ve never cleaned so many! There are more range ovens in the Lakes than single ovens—it’s a whole different world .
A massive thank you to Alan for his patience, guidance, and support, not just during the training but even before I arrived. Anyone interested in learning to clean AGAs and other range ovens, I can’t recommend him enough-reach out to him for training
PS: Where else would you get someone who picks you up every day with coffee, breakfast, and lunch ready? Alan goes above and beyond. Working in the Lakes with him was an incredible experience—it just hits different!
Over these four days, we visited 12+ customers, most of them repeat clients or referrals, which speaks volumes about his reputation and quality of work. He’s truly #1 in the South Lakes, and I’ve seen it firsthand.
Thank you, Alan, you’re an absolute legend! (Alex viera, AVCS Cleaning Solutions)
A big thank you to Alan I have just completed a weeks oven cleaning training course with him and his attention to detail is second to none. He teaches not only the cleaning side of the business but other parts like best advertising, booking work, diary control and taking payments. Then theres sourcing equipment and supplies what to get and where. He has it all covered and just to top it off you do it in the beautiful Lake District. (Mark H, Carlisle)
Thankyou Alan today for the training i received on cleaning top end ovens ie Aga, Rayburn and much more.
Seeing how you done it made it easier for me to understand and adapt this into my cleaning business.
Alan is very kind and patient and gets me involved straightaway. He has a fantastic hands on approach and anyone thinking of being trained should seek out Alan's South Lakes Oven Cleaning Training Services. Highly recommend!
Justin Hartstone, JH Domestics
I would like to thank Alan for his Training and the exceptional details he went into during the Training. He went into great detail into why he did certain things, also showing potential problems where they could occur and how to fix them. All the work whilst with him for the 5 days was done to a very high standard moreso than other franchises i did taster days with and shows what should be done at every job as if it was your first. His attitude towards people was very friendly whether it be myself or his customers and most were repeat customers. I would wholeheartedly recommend Alan for your oven Cleaning Training. ( Chris Evens Pristine Oven Clean Knutsford)
I would like to give a big thanks to Alan for his outstanding training, this helped me understand the process of the job and without his high standard of training and cleaning i wouldnt be able to be in this field of work. His personality is a huge part of his job and it is very easy for him to connect with his trainees professionally and his customers. His standard of work is exceptional always leaving his customers Ovens sparkling.

Alan provided a professional and comprehensive training course. He is very down to earth and himself and Lindsay made me feel very welcome. The training course itself was very well put together and i am walking away very confident and well informed.
Joie Baird, Joie Sparkles Oven Cleaning
I have done a 5 day training course with Alan the owner of South Lakes Oven Cleaning. I did this due to the massive costs of going down the franchise route. I did not know what to expect as i havent cleaned Ovens before. The training was calm and very comprehensive. I have worked on Ovens I never knew existed, but Alan calmly talked me through all the procedures and I completed tasks Alan set me to do. Everything was organised in such a way that I knew where everything was. I completed numerous Neff Hide and slides which i was dreading and an Aga. Alan helped me source a Diptank at a reasonable price and even gave advise on marketing and setting up. I would whole-heartedly recommend this training course to anyone thinking of moving into cleaning Ovens. I would also like to thank Lindsay who made me feel very welcome and made my breakfast and lunch everyday from her own business The Cartmel Food Shed. I would recommend a visit to her establishment just to eat at. Thankyou Alan and Lindsay

After running my Oven Cleaning business successfully for a couple of years I decided to enhance my services to include cleaning Agas. I did a lot of research and chose South Lakes Oven Cleaning. From the minute I arrived, Alan was professional and welcoming. Got a yummy bacon butty and coffee before heading to our first job. The Training was a mix of hands-on training along with Alan's extensive experience., in real customers homes. Alan was very patient in explaining the different types of Agas and methods of cleaning. I left fully equipped with the skills and knowledge to get straight out there cleaning Agas in my own business. I especially appreciate how supportive Alan has been since undertaking the training, knowing I can lean on him for advise and suppoort has been invaluable. I would wholeheartedly recommend his course to anyone looking to enter the industry or enhance their skills.

Well every day is a school day. Despite having worked as an Oven cleaner since 2018, cleaned 5000 plus ovens and running a multi van oven cleaning firm, Ive never touched an Aga. After being let down badly by another so called Oven cleaning traimner, I spoke with Alan. He gave undivided attention during the training, explained fully what, why, how he was doing things, gave great tips on what chemicals to use and nothing abrasive on the lids or doors. All in all a great day well spent learning on two Agas in customers homes and a true gentleman. Many thanks
David, Merlins Ovens
After some extensive research and having spoke with Alan on the phone quite a few times I decided to opt for the 5 day training course. Our company employs 40 cleaners and we wanted to add Oven Cleaning to our services.
the course was well run, structured and Alans attention to detail is incredible. Ovens were cleaned quickly with no fuss. Customers all seemed to be repeat customers which shows how well he is regarded in his area. After 5 days I am now fully conversed with everything Ovens and Agas. We have already put into practice the training and have been steadily building up the Oven Cleaning. Its also great having Alan on hand by video call for anything a little different that i may be unsure of.
I would whole-heartedly recommend the training.
Slawomir Tur, Sparkle18 Limited
I had a really great experience training with Alan. The training was extremely thorough and well structured, covering everything in detail and giving me real confidence to carry out specialist oven cleaning to a high standard.
Alan is a fantastic teacher — very knowledgeable, approachable, and happy to share his experience. Nothing felt rushed, and every question was answered clearly.
I would highly recommend this training to anyone starting out in oven cleaning or to those already in the trade who want to enhance their specialist knowledge and skills.

.Having just returned from training for a week with Alan i can see that I definitely made the correct choice in choosing to travel almost 5 hours each way to train with one of, if not 'the best' in the industry.
His attention to detail, expertise and patience was faultless. We did everything from basic double ovens to Neff Hide and Slide's, Range's, AGA's and even did an Everhot on my last day!!
Guided me on the clerical, accounting and media side of running a buisness which was a massive added on bonus.
Genuinely I can't put in to words how much i can recommend Alan for your training needs, he truly is a wealth of knowledge.
Thanks again and no doubt I'll be in touch when I need some guidance along my journey!!
P.S. As a side note the breakfast and lunch that Alan's good lady 'Cartmel Food Shed' supplied daily was outstanding
Dalis Ifans (Oven Clean Cymru)
Just spent 5 days training with Alan at South Lakes Oven Cleaning and I’m really pleased with how it went.
Alan is a patient, knowledgeable and professional trainer who takes the time to explain everything properly. I’ve recently had some training elsewhere, but Alan goes into great detail not only with the cleaning side of the business, but also the business side itself — including equipment, systems, customer service and ideas on how to market yourself professionally from the start.
The whole setup was friendly and welcoming, with breakfast and lunch provided each day from the amazing Cartmel Food Shed.
I’ve come away with a lot more confidence and I’m looking forward to putting my new skills into practice next week.
Thanks again Alan — highly recommended.
