What affects the quote in Earl's Court
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- The condition of the system
- How many systems or sites are involved
- How easy every part is to reach
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
How we handle AHU cleaning in Earl's Court
No two plant rooms are the same, whether it’s a compact unit in a ceiling void or a big unit on the roof. We look at the unit first, from pictures or a site visit, and send you a fixed quote, so you know where you stand. The work covers heating and cooling coils, filter sections and supply and extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are dirty coils holding back the airflow and condensate trays that won’t empty.
Across London, offices, hotels, schools and healthcare buildings rely on mechanical ventilation, much of it supplied through air handling units on roofs or in basements. For a building in Earl's Court, dust settles in the units and ducts year after year, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Common questions in Earl's Court
Can you come to Earl's Court after we close?

Can ventilation in schools around Earl's Court be cleaned out of term?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 97 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Earl's Court. You can call 0345 646 2711 or email us with the dates the site is empty.

Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.

Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Why it’s worth doing now in Earl's Court
A clean unit feeds cleaner air into the ductwork, so the ducts and grilles stay cleaner between cleans. That makes the next inspection of a building in Earl's Court simpler. In Earl's Court, a planned overnight visit is much easier than closing unexpectedly.
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
Why book with us
- CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001
- Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover
- A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Earl's Court
It matters for two reasons: the unit supplies the air people breathe, and a dirty unit has to work harder. For the people using the building every day, that is the air they breathe for hours on end.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Air handling units never cleaned inside
- Odours coming through the supply air
- Dirty fans and fan housings
Workplaces around West Brompton station with an air handling unit need the filters, coils and drain tray looked at, as well as the ducts.
Before you book anyone
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- What insurance they carry
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
Different parts, different methods
Internal casing and panels
Loose or damaged linings inside a unit can break up into the airstream. Anything like that is recorded with pictures.
Rooftop and plant room units
Many AHUs sit on roofs or in plant rooms with limited access. We plan safe access as part of the survey so the quote reflects it.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
For anyone managing more than one site, 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.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
- Flag stale or damp smells in the supply air
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
We recommend when the unit should next be inspected or cleaned, based on what we found. Under TR19® Air the timing is set by inspection and risk, not a fixed calendar.
Have the unit inspected regularly, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air, rather than waiting for a problem.
Ventilation in Earl's Court buildings
Going by the FSA’s register, there are about 97 schools, colleges and universities, about 72 care, childcare and hospital premises and about 108 hotels and guest houses serving food in Earl's Court and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. Many London buildings have had their ductwork altered through several fit-outs, so an inspection comes first. About within half a mile south-east of Earl's Court is Princess Beatrice Hospital, the nearest hospital. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes.
For schools like St Cuthbert with St Matthias CofE Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation. If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Earl's Court, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Princess Beatrice Hospital (about under half a mile south-east).
Earl's Court is about 1 mile south-east of Kensington, in Greater London. We provide AHU cleaning for commercial premises of every kind in Earl's Court and the rest of Greater London. Across Greater London, we cover 764 places, Earl's Court among them.

What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. We fit London jobs around the building rather than the other way round, so a visit in Earl's Court is normally out of hours.
- We survey the unit from photos or on site and agree what’s included.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after pictures.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.
