How much does professional oven cleaning cost in Dubai before a move-out inspection?
I'm moving out of my Dubai apartment next month and the inside of my oven is in a terrible state. My landlord will definitely try to charge me for it. How much does professional oven cleaning cost in Dubai and can I do it myself to the standard required for a move-out inspection?

Professional oven cleaning in Dubai typically costs AED 80–AED 180 as a standalone service, or AED 50–AED 100 when booked as part of a full apartment deep clean. For a move-out inspection, a professionally cleaned oven is strongly advisable — it's the single most common cause of cleaning deductions from Dubai deposits because grease buildup inside the oven is one of the few areas where landlords have a strong case for a deduction. DIY oven cleaning to move-out standard is possible but requires proper oven cleaner (available from Carrefour or ACE Hardware — Mr Muscle Oven Cleaner works well), letting it soak for several hours, and thoroughly cleaning all racks, the oven door glass, and the extractor above the hob. If DIY, allow at least 3–4 hours and do it 2–3 days before your inspection so any lingering chemical smell has dissipated. Keep your receipt if you use a professional — it's evidence the oven was cleaned professionally if your landlord tries to charge for it anyway.
