I have been avoiding cleaning my oven for honestly about two years. Maid First came in and it looks brand new. I was embarrassed it was ever that bad. Highly recommend.

Part of our move-out cleaning in the Upper West Side included full appliance cleaning. Landlord inspected the kitchen and said nothing. Full deposit back. These guys are the real deal.

The deep clean they did on my kitchen appliances in our Park Slope brownstone was unreal. The microwave, the fridge, the stovetop — everything looked like it just came out of a showroom.

Diane F., Park Slope, Brooklyn

Your Appliances Are Dirtier Than You Think. A Lot Dirtier.

Here's the thing about appliance grime. It builds up slowly. So slowly that you stop noticing it. One day your oven just smells a little when you turn it on. Then it smokes a little. Then you open the door and there's a half-inch of baked-on grease you genuinely don't remember making.

It's the same story with the fridge. You wipe the shelves every now and then. But the rubber door seals? The drip pan underneath? The coils in the back that collect dust and make the whole unit work harder? Most people never touch those.
New York City apartments make this worse. Small kitchens mean appliances are packed together. Cooking smells and grease spread everywhere fast. In older buildings in neighborhoods like Astoria, Jackson Heights, or East Harlem, the ventilation is often not great — which means grease and moisture settle into every appliance surface faster than in a newer building.

Frequently Asked Questions – Appliance Cleaning Services New York

Maid First House Cleaning Service answers common questions about appliance cleaning across New York City, covering service areas, pricing, and scheduling details.

  • What does appliance cleaning cost in New York City? I've seen very different prices online.

    Prices vary based on what needs cleaning and the condition it's in. A basic oven clean typically starts around $60–$90. A full kitchen appliance package (oven, fridge, microwave, dishwasher) starts around $150–$200. We always give a clear quote before we start — no vague estimates, no surprise add-ons at the end. Call (212) 920-7872 or visit maidfirst.com and we'll give you a straight answer.

  • How long does a full kitchen appliance cleaning take in a New York City apartment?

    For a standard NYC kitchen with an oven, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher, expect about 2 to 3 hours for a thorough cleaning. If the oven hasn't been cleaned in a long time — which is true for a lot of apartments in Queens and Brooklyn we visit — it can take a bit longer. We give you a realistic time estimate when you book so you can plan your day.

  • I'm moving out of my Manhattan apartment next month. Does your move-out cleaning include the appliances?

    Yes — always. Manhattan landlords, especially in buildings on the Upper East Side, Midtown, and in newer developments downtown, inspect appliances closely during move-out walkthroughs. Our move-out cleaning packages include full interior and exterior cleaning of every kitchen appliance. We've helped a lot of Manhattan renters avoid deposit deductions by making sure the oven and fridge are in better shape than when they moved in.

  • Can I get just the oven cleaned, or do I have to book a full cleaning package?

    You can absolutely book just the oven, or just the fridge, or any single appliance. We offer standalone appliance cleaning as well as full kitchen packages. A lot of clients in smaller apartments — studios and one-bedrooms in neighborhoods like Murray Hill, Clinton Hill, and Inwood — just need one or two appliances handled. No problem. We'll come out for exactly what you need.

  • Do you offer recurring appliance cleaning in New York City, or only one-time services?

    Both. Most clients add appliance maintenance to a recurring cleaning plan so things never get bad again. We offer weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly plans with 10–20% savings on every visit. A lot of our New York City clients do a full deep appliance clean once a year and then light appliance maintenance as part of their regular recurring visits. It keeps the kitchen consistently clean without ever turning into a big project.

  • Do you offer appliance cleaning services throughout New York City, or only in certain neighborhoods?

    We cover all five boroughs — Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island. From a studio kitchen in Kips Bay to a full house kitchen in Tottenville, we travel to you. Call (212) 920-7872 to confirm availability in your area and get scheduled.

  • I'm in the Bronx — do you travel out there for appliance cleaning?

    Absolutely. We have cleaning teams active across The Bronx, from Riverdale down to Hunts Point. We work around the Cross Bronx and Major Deegan traffic patterns when scheduling, so we show up on time and ready to work — not frazzled from a two-hour commute.

  • My apartment in Brooklyn has really old appliances. Will cleaning actually help, or are they too far gone?

    We get this question a lot, especially from clients in older buildings in neighborhoods like Bed-Stuy, Bushwick, and Sunset Park. The answer is almost always yes — cleaning helps. Old porcelain oven interiors and vintage fridge shelving actually respond really well to proper cleaning because the materials are durable. The only time cleaning doesn't help is if there's actual damage like rust or cracks, and we'll tell you honestly if that's what we find.

  • Are there any New York City building regulations I need to worry about before hiring an appliance cleaning service?

    No permits or regulations apply to interior appliance cleaning — it's housekeeping, not construction. One thing to be aware of in NYC is that if your oven or refrigerator has signs of mold growth beyond normal surface grime, New York City's Local Law 55 places responsibility on landlords to address mold conditions. We flag those situations for tenants so they know their rights.

  • How does New York City's climate affect how often appliances need to be cleaned?

    More than most people realize. NYC summers are humid, which encourages mold growth inside refrigerators and dishwasher door seals — especially in apartments with limited ventilation. Winter brings more indoor cooking and baking, which means oven and stovetop buildup accelerates between November and February. We recommend a deep appliance clean in spring after winter cooking season, and again in fall before the holidays ramp up.
