How we price AHU cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- How easy every part is to reach
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will explain what it covers.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

How we handle AHU cleaning in Bumble's Green
Our AHU cleans for sites in Bumble's Green cover the parts that collect dirt: the filter section, heating and cooling coils, drain trays, fan and casing. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report showing the unit before and after. If you have condensate trays that won’t empty and plant that has been serviced but not cleaned, we can put it right, from dampers and louvres, drain trays and supply and extract fans onwards.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.

The process
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. In a small place like Bumble's Green, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- We take after photos and issue the certificate and report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Common questions in Bumble's Green
Do you offer AHU cleaning in Bumble's Green?
Yes, we work in Bumble's Green and the places around it. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with a few pictures of the system.
Do you work in villages like Bumble's Green?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Bumble's Green is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you need to switch the unit off?
Yes. Cleaning needs the unit off and isolated, and we time the work to suit the site.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Can you clean the ducts connected to the AHU?
Yes. We reach the ducts through access panels, with anything inaccessible recorded, and new panels can be fitted.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
What’s included in an AHU clean?
The main parts are the filters, coils, drain tray, fan and inside of the casing. The survey confirms what’s in your unit before we quote.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we’ll quote them together.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
How the job changes from site to site
Fans and fan sections
The fan moves all of the unit’s air, so dirt on it gets spread around. We clean the impeller, housing and surrounding section.
Internal casing and panels
Access doors and panels are opened in turn and closed properly afterwards before the unit is handed back.
Multi-site and managed buildings
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Bumble's Green and across Essex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep the certificate and photo report with the plant records
- Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
If the ductwork hasn’t been cleaned, consider it next. Cleaning the unit and ducts together gives the best result, and we can survey both.
Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due, rather than waiting for a problem.
