About our AHU cleaning in Dungeness
Think of an AHU clean as a full check-up for the ventilation. We look inside each section, clean what we find and record it with pictures, so the report shows exactly what was done. Common call-outs are for dirty coils holding back the airflow and dust built up on fan impellers, across supply and extract fans, heating and cooling coils and internal panels.
For a building in or near Dungeness, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we’re 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.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Dungeness
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether several sites go on one quote
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall

Why it’s worth doing now in Dungeness
Dirt left in an air handling unit does not stay in the unit. It’s carried through the ductwork and out of the grilles, so cleaning the ducts without the unit only goes so far. In a small place like Dungeness, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What you get with us
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
- Fully insured
- A written report with photos after each visit
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001

For landlords and multi-site operators
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
What happens on the day
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, tidy up and leave you the report. On site, the work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Dungeness can be planned properly.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- We take before photos of each section of the unit.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
- After photos are taken and the certificate issued.
How to prepare
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Advice
Honest limits
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
- Damaged coils beyond cleaning
- Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Where we work
- Filter sections

- Dampers and louvres
- Drain trays
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Do you need AHU cleaning in Dungeness?
No filter stops everything. The fine dust that passes the filters lands on the coils, the fan and the internal panels, a little more each month.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
For sites in and around Dungeness, the units and the ductwork are both looked at.
What your quote should include
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- Whether the figure could change on the day
Your questions about AHU cleaning in Dungeness
Can you do AHU cleaning in Dungeness?
Yes, Dungeness is covered. You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and let us know what needs doing.
Do you work overnight in Dungeness?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
What should I send you?
Some photos and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
The clean includes noting faults, but repairs sit with your maintenance contractor, with pictures where it helps.
Does the AHU have to be shut down for cleaning?
Yes. The fan must be stopped and the unit isolated, and we time the work to suit the site.
