AHU cleaning in Godstone: local notes
Food Standards Agency data includes about 6 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Godstone. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. Godstone’s nearest hospital, Caterham Dene Hospital, is about 2.5 miles north. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes. About 17 miles out from central London, Godstone is part of the South East area we work across. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Godstone, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Caterham Dene Hospital (about 2.5 miles north). If you manage a school such as Godstone Village School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

AHU cleaning in Godstone, done properly
Every supply and extract system relies on the air handling unit at its centre: it draws air in, filters it, heats or cools it and pushes it round the ductwork. Whatever builds up inside it travels with that air, so cleaning the unit matters as much as cleaning the ducts. The work covers dampers and louvres, filter sections and supply and extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are air handling units due a clean after building work and dust built up on fan impellers.
Work in a small place like Godstone starts with agreeing access and timings.
We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

How we price AHU cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The size of the system
- The number of sites or systems
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
What to send for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- The postcode and the type of business
- A few general shots of the system
- Any previous report or certificate
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Need a price for AHU cleaning? Please call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us about the site. We’ll talk you through the work and send you a fixed quote before you commit to anything.
How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Godstone.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Clear loose items from the work area
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Godstone: your questions answered
Can you come to Godstone after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Godstone does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you get to a site in Godstone?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Godstone included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
What information do you need?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
How often should an air handling unit be cleaned?
Under TR19® Air, cleaning is led by inspection and risk rather than a set calendar. Each report suggests when the unit should next be looked at.
Leave it or put it right?
A clean unit feeds cleaner air into the ductwork, so the ducts and grilles stay cleaner between cleans. It also means the next inspection has less to find. In a place like Godstone, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.

What AHU cleaning cannot fix
AHU cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Drain trays
- Internal panels
- Filter sections
- Dampers and louvres
- Heating and cooling coils
- Supply and extract fans

Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- Report musty smells from the vents right away
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
When we have closed the unit up, it can be restarted with your site team. Check the drain tray is emptying over the first few days to confirm water is draining away.
Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due instead of leaving it to guesswork.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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 photos, so records stay tidy.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
