5 Days Premium Extra Advanced Training with LPG Dip Tank Coming soon!

5 Days Premium Advanced Training with Gas Dip Tank I recently attended the 5 day Premium Advanced training course and purchased the 6kw Dip Tank and Starter Kit.  This training course was very informative and has given me greater confidence in my own ability to develop my business.  Daryl, Alex, Ricky and Aaron were all…

3 Days Training Only Advanced Course After being a retail manager for 17 years, I have chosen OvenKing / The King Academy to train me to launch my new business. I have just finished three days training; it has been absolutely amazing. Daryl, Ricky and Alex were very welcoming and supportive. They were genuinely invested…

5 Days Training Only Advanced Course Coming soon!

5 Days Advanced Training with Hybrid Dip Tank I have recently completed my training course with Oven king and it was first class. Daryl and Alex were so helpful with the business, admin, and IT side of things and I learnt so much from them. I was sent out for hands on training with Ricky…

5 Days Training Only Course Having definitely wanted to train as a professional oven cleaner and having taken much time pondering who to train with, I was definitely not disappointed. OvenKing provided the best thorough and safe training I could’ve asked for. All the guys there are so welcoming and friendly and I felt very…

5 Days Premium Training with Hybrid Dip Tank I’ve just completed my 5 day course and I’m so happy I did!! After being a decorator for almost 20 years and becoming tired of it, I needed a big change. As daunting as that was, the whole OvenKing team made the transition very simple for me….

Having spent many years as a Project Manager in the corporate world I decided that I wanted to start a small Oven Cleaning business of my own. I looked at the franchise option but felt what OvenKing were offering in terms of training and support was the best way forward. I booked a 4-day Training…

After having someone come into my home to clean my oven, I took a big interest as I already have my own business in cleaning and thought it would be a great add on. After some research, I found OvenKing was the best one around. So I took the plunge and booked to complete the…

After doing the Discovery Day last year, I came back for the full training package including the van livery and dip tank. Had a very enjoyable week working with the OvenKing team. Thanks to Aaron, Jason, and Ricky for their training and guidance while out cleaning ovens, Alex for his help on the IT side…

Myself and a colleague have just got back from a fantastic week with OvenKing. From starting the week with having absolutely no knowledge of the industry we have come away confident and excited to get started on the next chapter of our business! Rikki and Adam couldn’t have been more helpful throughout the training, they…

I was starting my own business in the world of oven cleaning, BUT, I hadn’t any clue where to begin. Cue Google, and after a bit of research I was on my way to OvenKing in Bournemouth and the rest they say is history. I spent a great week with Daryl, Ricky and the rest…

I spent 2 days at The King Academy recently due to starting up my own Oven cleaning business, I opted for a Trailer Rig and it is a really fantastic bit of kit! Daryl and his team made me feel so welcome, nothing was too much trouble, their knowledge is absolutely first class. I am…

I went on the one day training course with OvenKing to get a feel for oven cleaning and to decide if it was for me. I had been recommended to use OvenKing for the training so I knew beforehand that it was going to be a good experience. I was welcomed by Daryl and Ricky…

I was quite nervous on my first day as I wasn’t sure what to expect but the nerves disappeared as soon as I met everyone. What a lovely bunch of guys!! They are all a credit to the company!! Professional, courteous, amazing with the customers, well organised and excellent at training. I’m guessing I asked…

Coming soon!

Hi guys, thanks so much for the training last week. Did I mention how much I love Dorset? We will defo be back, such an amazing location! I learned so much and can’t wait to get cracking!

Had a great time training with Oven King. Very informative and well equipped training room. Going out to actual cleans with Ricky and Aaron were invaluable and really helped to get to know the process. I felt very welcome and part of the team as soon as I walked through the door. I did the…

Well, what can I say about my great week with Oven King? I would just like to start by saying that from the minute I arrived I was made to feel welcome by the whole team. The training is fantastic from day one through to the last day. Ricky and Aaron are two top lads (even…

Coming soon!

Our first trainee in the USA From my first conversation with Daryl, I had total confidence in his professionalism and willingness to help me start my oven cleaning business. I was excited to hear that Daryl and Louis were willing to fly out to the USA from the UK to facilitate the OvenKing Training Course!…

Coming soon!

I’d like to start by saying that I thoroughly enjoyed the Oven King training with Ricky and would recommend a five day course as there is a lot to cover. The logo, van livery, website, flyers and business cards from design was totally amazing and I can not put into words how please I really…

I did the 5 day start up course with the LPG tank. It was really worth it. The first day was in the workshop and then out on the road with Aaron and then Ricky and than an session with Alex on my website and email. I found Daryl and his team very professional and…

I would like to thank you for your valuable training I found it very informative, the staff I worked with was very professional and the on site training was just what I was looking for. I would recommend your training to anyone who would like to get into the oven claning business. Thanks again. 😊

I thoroughly enjoyed training at OvenKing. It’s amazing how much you can learn on top of what you already know. The guys were all great and a credit to the company. No surprises they smash it in their area of expertise!

Did the 4 day training package with Oven King. Can’t speak highly enough of the whole team. First day spent in the workshop then the next 3 days out with the technicians being hands on. The technicians were great, Ricky, Mike and Aaron, showed me the ropes and let me get stuck in as well….

I’m in the external domestic cleaning business and several of my clients kept asking me if I undertake oven cleaning. I didn’t jump on it initially, but after realising this is a potentially huge addon service I could provide, I decided to look into it more seriously. I didn’t want to jump all in from…

I am so excited to have finished my training! I have been a retail manager for most of my life, not getting anywhere and hating the lack of control of my personal life. After all these years, I decided I’ve had enough and had to do something about it. Retailing has been good for me…

Ovenking WOW! Daryl and his team are excellent from start to finish. From booking my training all the way through, the communication was excellent. I booked the 5day StartUp Extra training course and so glad I did. On the first day Daryl made me feel welcome and then he put me with Ricky who made…

I’d been looking at Oven Cleaning on and off for a while. There seemed like only two options, franchise or going it alone. A franchise felt restrictive and I felt I didn’t have enough business experience to go it alone. When I came across King Academy, it seemed the perfect answer. When made contact with…

What a week I had… I arrived nervous and unsure and left confident I could do the job. I arrived thinking there would be lots of us but it was very personal, which I loved. What a GREAT TEAM you all are. Professional, courteous, respectful, friendly, hardworking, committed to customer satisfaction on each job and…

I come from a precision engineering background and after quite a few years of working for others I decided to gradually change from being employed to starting my own business, initially part time and then full time eventually. While searching around, I found two main categories, a franchise or owning a business. The franchise option…

I had a great 4 days at King Academy this week, really enjoyable. Thanks so much to Ricky for putting up with me for 4 days and sharing his expertise with me over that time, it was great working with you and even though you didn’t say it I know we formed a special bond!??…

We would like to thank you for the great work and service you have provided us with. Arron is over the moon with how this week has gone and can’t wait to get out there. The van looks AMAZING! We’ve had some good comments on how it looks. If you are looking into setting up…

I just want to say a massive thank you to Daryl, Ricky, Alex and company. From start to finish you’ve been brilliant especially keeping in touch during lockdown but more importantly setting everything up from start to finish and wow I feel like I have a great business that can grow. I’ve already got my…

I started looking for an Oven Cleaning Course as I wanted to expand my cleaning business. I didn’t want to be bound to a franchise, especially if it isn’t a well-known brand, and I prefer to work for myself, so I decided to go with OvenKing’s 4-day StartUp Extra course. I first spoke to Daryl…

I was laid off by my previous employer in the New Year and was looking for a new business career to get into, this time as my own boss. After looking through various franchise opportunities, I decided alongside my husband that I would try the Oven Cleaning industry. During my conversation with Daryl, and because…

I was looking at several ways to get into oven cleaning, and after some thorough research I thankfully found OvenKing. Franchising just wasn’t for me with the restrictions it comes with, which is where OvenKing ticked all the boxes! A good honest chat with Daryl gave me the confidence to take the jump and book…

Hi Daryl. Just wanted to say thanks so much to you and your team at OvenKing for the training. I’m delighted to say that I’m so busy that I need to expand into a 2nd van to go out to a neighbouring area, and I reckon I’ll be getting a 3rd in a couple of…

My Oven King training experience was absolutely brilliant from start to finish and was sad to leave Bournemouth on my last day. From meeting “Big Daryl” at the house on the first day I was treated like one of the boys straight away. It is clear to see how you have had such a portfolio…

4 day Oven Cleaning Training Course: Just to say a big thank you to Daryl and the team at Oven King during my 4 day Oven Cleaning Training Course. I decided to go with Oven Kings, as I wanted the best possible level of Training and Equipment available to help me start up my own…

By the end of the course, I had been taught by Ricky everything that I needed to know from the training package on the practical side. The training helped me feel confident in using the dip tank and gas, which has resulted in the excellent work that I have completed for my customers since completion of…

WOW! These guys really blew me away! A bit about me, I am ex military and security and after 35 years I had enough. Decided time to move on and run my own business so I started my search on the internet and magazines etc, trying to decide what I want to do as a…

Hi Guys, Happy New Year! I would like to start by thanking you for the amazing training, excellent van fitting and my tools and chemicals just before Christmas. I really felt I walked away from the course with a range of new skills and abilities that will stand me in good stead with my new…

My 4 days training at the Oven King Academy was my first step starting up a brand new business venture following an unexpected redundancy. I have to say from the initial enquiry for the training I was reassured by Darryl and his friendly manner. On arrival for my 4 day training course I met Darryl…

Smoothly run, busy, informative, hands on. These are the words I’d use to describe my experience of Oven King training. From first meeting to going out the door getting valuable hands on training took no time at all. A quick look at some of the fittings in the custom workshop and bam out on the…

Team Ovenking, Thank you for the 4 days I have had with you this week. It was very informative, and has put me in a position of confidence to start my new venture. Everyone was brilliant, Daryl, Danny, Jo, Dan, Rob and of course Ricky. Thanks again. I will let you know how I get…

I just wanted to say big thank you for making me feel so welcome. My 4 day training was very comprehensive and I throughly enjoyed being out  with Ricky getting hands on experience of cleaning ovens in customers’ homes. For me that was perfect! I now feel that I have the full knowledge and confidence to go out and…

I have just recently completed my four day training course with Ovenking, from the onset I was made very welcome by Daryl, Jo, Rob, and Ricky. Following a nice coffee and introduction, Daryl then explained to me about the process of cleaning ovens to a professional standard, and I was also shown a variety of…

Hi guys, Bet your missing me already lol, I know its very quiet here today  ha ha. I thought I heard Daryl about an hour or go but must of been dreaming. Well how was you new guy this week? Was he / she as entertaining as I was lol? Missing you all hope all…

I had been researching the world of Oven Cleaning for some months prior to attending Oven King for the 4 day Startup Extra Training Package.  I was very close to signing with a franchise oven cleaning company, however upon reading the contract got nervous that whilst it would be my company and would be working…

We can say that Ben was over the moon with his training! 

1st of all, 2 handsome devils in the foto!!!! I travelled all the way over from Dublin to complete the 4 day course with all the trimmings,met Daryl the leader and the rest of the amazing team behind this successful company. Ricky gave me so many wise tricks and knowledge to success and help me…

Having been made redundant after working for a large corporate company for 33 years, I really wanted to take the opportunity to invest in my future & get some work life balance. After much thought & research I decided starting my own oven cleaning business would enable me to do this. I found several companies…

I came to OvenKing to take the 4 day start up package. Daryl introduced me to my trainer for the week, Ricky. From day one Ricky, with his watchful eye, gets you right in there!! His knowledge and understanding of the oven industry has to be up there with the best. Throughout the week Ricky’s…

I come from a nursing background and had struggled with the long shifts and my other home commitments, so I began researching the possibility of self employment for about a year. I looked at many options including franchises but decided this option wasn’t for me. I also looked at other training packages on offer with other…

Having been in commercial banking most of my working life and with redundancy looming I started to research Oven Cleaning as a new venture. I was looking for something that gave me flexibility that gave me a better work/life balance. I discovered Oven King and was attracted by the 4 day start up extra package…

I have my own cleaning business, I decided to add on oven cleaning to my End of Tenancy cleans and carpet cleans that I offer. I felt I needed to get up to date as I was losing work by not doing it myself. I searched oven cleaning and where I could obtain all the…

I’m ex Armed Forces and currently in the Police but have been looking for a while to be my own boss. After getting my oven professionally cleaned I realised there was money to be made in this business. After doing lots of research on the internet I stumbled across the oven kings website and was…

My background is the Forces, I did my time and finished early as I felt it wasn’t really for me. I then worked for an alarm engineering company but not really seen a great future with this so I felt that I haven’t got it right to date. I tried to research business opportunities and…

My 4 day training course with OvenKing / The King Academy. I have been researching oven cleaning for quite a while now. I used to be a dog handler in the Royal Navy for many years. Since leaving the Royal Navy I have been from pillar to post trying to sort out my future career,…

Hi Guys, Back again! I really cant beleive how well the oven cleaning business has bared for me. Came only six months ago to OvenKing for my training. They told me I should thrive in my area as the competition in their area is 10 times more. I was yet to see but I started…

Thank you for the training experience, it was exceptional and a pleasure meeting you all! I am interested in purchasing chemical products, unfortunately I am limited by the space travelling home, I am sure you understand. I will keep in touch and will probably accept OvenKing’s ongoing managemtn ans support package for the future. Thank…

Thanks guys! I thoroughly researched the best training packages as a gateway into the industry. I am delighted to have chosen Ovenking. I spent a week with you and have to say the training was superb and the amount of knowledge you shared with me is invaluable. My van looks the business – very professional…

Hi OvenKing, just wanted to say a big thanks to you guys for all of your help and training over the last few days. You have all been great and I feel much more confident in what I want to achieve now. The insight to the industry, the tools, chemicals and the best way to…

For the past 4 years I’ve been slowly looking into the Oven Cleaning industry, mostly at night with a tablet, whilst early ideas were to look into national brands, a joining fee of over £10,000 plus purchasing my own van and having a moral debt to the company not to mention sharing my earnings back…

Having spent a lot of time researching Oven Cleaning Franchises and other training providers it was obvious once I had spoken to Daryl at OvenKing that his training package was without doubt the best by far. I would say to anyone looking to start up in this business do not under any circumstances buy a…

Daryl I am just writing a testimonial for you guys to express how pleased I was with my short 2 day oven cleaning training course. I had spoken to other training providers but none gave me what I needed and as soon as I spoke with yourselves you were happy to tailor the course to…

I saw OvenKing’s oven cleaning training package online and it shone over the rest. I spoke to Daryl on the phone a couple of times before I booked on the course and then on the date of my course I travelled to their head office. I found the training to be very informative and a…

Oven king you guys are the business. I’d recently had my oven cleaned for the missus and was relived of £150, at the same time I was looking for my next position and so I thought oven cleaning could be for me. So after a Google search I contacted Oven king to discuss their oven…

Being from the west country I haven’t seen many oven cleaners in my area so thought it would be a great business to get into. Upon my considerable research and due diligence the ovenking training course kept coming up on my searches. And training was my preferred option of getting into the business rather than…

Thank you to Daryl and the team for my 4 day start up extra course. I couldn’t miss the opportunity when I saw the van and corporate branding already done so I was happy to buy the business as a going concern and come down to undertake the informative and hands on training. Hopefully the…

Daryl. Would just like to pass on my thanks to yourself and all the team at oven king. Training was brilliant although 2 days may have been a little bit tight. However rick was great at showing me how to clean an oven right and some tips to make the process much easier to understand….

Hi Team, Just a few words to express my satisfaction with the oven cleaning training package I purchased. Initially I decided to only go for the 4 day startup, and that package gave me the full insight in to the oven cleaning industry. It has taught me how to clean an oven properly and to…

Hi Daryl, It has taken a few days but as promised I’m putting a few words down about my experience with Ovenking for you. Let me start by saying thank you very much for your hospitality, If you are ever this way please allow me to repay you and take you for a drink next…

It was a great pleasure to come down to Bournemouth and receive my full training 4 day start up extra package. I’m so glad you convinced me that there was no point buying another van when I already had one. At first I was reluctant to use my van as it is my pride and…

Hi guys, we have just got back to our home in Spain. I just wanted to drop you an email to thank you for giving myself and my son the opportunity to come over the UK and be trained by yourselves. I can now see why ovenking is a great brand. The professionalism and the…

Thanks to all of the team at OvenKing. I certainly made the right decision coming down to Bournemouth. I spent a lovely 4 days with the OvenKing technicians and Daryl and the office staff. It was very informative and the hands on experience I gained on site with the customers was second to none. I…

Great training course, found it very informative. Daryl certainly knows about the industry and I gained a lot of knowledge from him. I enjoyed the training on the practical side, physically out on the road in a real customer’s kitchen cleaning real ovens. I thought that type of training was invaluable. The products, tools, dip…

Hi Team, thanks for staggering my training course and I felt that I learnt enough from you guys to get going. Great insight to the business side from you Daryl, much appreciated Paul and Leon showing me the ropes out on the road. If I get stuck at all I am sure I will give…

Love my van, enjoyed the time I spent with the team, started getting myself some bookings now. I am sure I will make a good go of this industry. Thank you OvenKing and a special thanks to Leon for taking me down to the beach for a romantic walk.

Day 1 got down to OvenKing’s offices and had a good chat with Daryl and a great induction into the industry and the do’s and dont’s. Then I went to the workshop and we went through the ovens and stripped a few down and stripped a few doors as well. Then out on the road…

Hi Daryl, thank you so much for all your help. It has been a great experience, you have been a great teacher and I have loved all of my training from start to finish. I was delighted that I had a high pass mark when you handed me my certificate, and I felt that all…

A big thank you to OvenKing’s team, I enjoyed the time and the knowledge I gained from Daryl and Ricky. It was so very informative and hands-on training that I would recommend it to anyone wanting to get into oven cleaning. I would not hesitate to recommend the overall package (Startup Extra). The website you…

Arrived back with a flying start. I left OvenKing on Thursday and I was working by the weekend for friends and family and had my first booking on Monday. I emphasised with OvenKing from the beginning that this is crucial to me as I have given up my highly paid sales job to start running…

Hey Team, I am now back after my long journey home and I felt every day and every minute of this training course was well worth a while. The cost was very reasonable and worth the money for the level of training and information gained. I came to OvenKing with the thinking that I wanted…

I very much appreciated the training course and really appreciated that Daryl was able to kit my van out with a unique bespoke package that he designed. When I arrived, it was a total surprise to him that I needed my van empty at the weekends for my bouncy castle business. He was able to…

Hi Daryl and team! I was very excited to expand on my cleaning portfolio. It all went very well. I would like to thank you Daryl for the training and advice this week and the other guys in the vans, what they showed me was great. I have already picked up bookings after I started…

I would like to thank you and your whole team for a great few days training. The comprehensive business advice from yourself, after your years in the industry, will be invaluable. Plus knowing I can call upon you in the future if necessary, gives added peace of mind. The tank you supplied and fitted will…

Great to meet Daryl and the team. I was possibly a bit hesitant about going into this industry as a woman, but after the very informative induction from Daryl and the great hands-on training from his operators I felt that I have made the right decision. Thanks once again to the team and I will…

I have been researching possibilities of becoming an oven cleaner for quite a while. I searched the internet and found the most suitable package that I felt would work for me. I discussed it with my partner who already had a cleaning business and this would be a perfect add on. Came down met Daryl…

I started as a complete novice in the industry. My background was working in the airline business on baggage handling. So I came down to training with OvenKing with an open mind, not being 100% sure whether it was for me or not. But after the training and the business walkthrough that Daryl gave me…
