AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Bedgebury Cross
Coils are where a lot of the dirt ends up. Dirt on the fins holds back air and makes the unit work harder to do the same job. We clean coils with methods suited to their condition, taking care not to damage the fins. The work covers drain trays, heating and cooling coils and internal panels, and people most often call us about condensate trays that won’t empty and rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs.
Somewhere as small as Bedgebury Cross, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- The scale of the work
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll talk you through it.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll normally have a quote within one working day.
Bedgebury Cross questions
Can you work in Bedgebury Cross outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Bedgebury Cross doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Can you get to a site in Bedgebury Cross?
Yes, Bedgebury Cross is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. We always survey first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we’ll quote them together.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, where the pictures show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
Do you need to switch the unit off?
Yes, while the clean is under way. We can work evenings, overnight or at weekends to keep disruption down.
What do you do to protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Signs you need AHU cleaning in Bedgebury Cross
Dirt in an AHU matters in two ways: air quality, since the unit feeds occupied rooms, and performance, since dirt makes it strain. For the people using the building every day, that is the air they breathe for hours on end.
Clients usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
- Condensate trays that won’t empty
In Bedgebury Cross, we look inside the system before deciding what needs cleaning.
What to look for in a quote
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- If they look at the system before pricing
- Proof of insurance
For landlords and multi-site operators
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
