Ex-lorry driver changes gear to launch Milton Keynes oven cleaning business


The 55-year-old has fulfilled a long-held ambition to become his own boss and is now focused on restoring ovens to near-showroom condition and delivering a professional, reliable service as he builds a loyal client base.
Danny, who is married to Michelle, said: “I’ve always wanted to work for myself, and joining a franchise like Ovenu gives me the structure and support to make that dream a reality.

“I might be swapping a lorry for a van but at least I won’t be going too far from home and being part of Ovenu gives me all the tools for success, so I’m starting out on solid ground.”
Rik Hellewell, founder and managing director of Ovenu, said: “Danny’s wealth of experience and strong work ethic make him an ideal fit for the brand. His desire to run his own business while providing a top-quality service to clients gives him a strong foundation for success, and I wish him all the very best.”
The Ovenu process involves dismantling key components such as the door, interior panels, fan, and shelves and placing them in design-registered tank equipment, which uses safe, non-caustic, biodegradable products to clean the parts, leaving the oven in near showroom condition. In addition to conventional ovens, it also covers hobs, extractor hoods, microwaves, together with range cookers and ovens.
