What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Any previous report or certificate
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
AHU cleaning in Goose Green
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 photos or a site visit, and give you a fixed quote before any cleaning starts. The work covers drain trays, supply and extract fans and internal panels, and the jobs we see most are dirty coils holding back the airflow and filters that are clogged or overdue.
For a building in or near Goose Green, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Questions from Goose Green
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Goose Green in the summer holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 4 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Goose Green. You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with the dates the site is empty.
Do you work in villages like Goose Green?
Yes. Goose Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate plus before and after pictures. Keep them in the maintenance log.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Typically, yes. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we’ll survey first.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes. We clean supply and extract ductwork to TR19® Air as well. It’s often worth doing both at once, and we can quote for both.
Do you need to switch the unit off?
Yes, for the time we’re working on it. Out-of-hours work is available to keep disruption down.
What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Between visits
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
- Book the next check in line with the report
- Don’t store bins or materials near the intake
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
Keep filter changes on schedule between cleans, as that does more than anything to keep the unit clean. Record each change in the maintenance log.
Have the unit inspected regularly, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air instead of leaving it to guesswork.
Why it’s worth doing now in Goose Green
Standing water in a drain tray doesn’t clear itself. Left alone, it can overflow, leak into the plant area or ceiling below and spread smells through the system. Clearing it now is a much smaller job. Planning a trip to Goose Green ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.

Ventilation in Goose Green buildings
Food Standards Agency data includes about 4 schools, colleges and universities and about 12 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) in Goose Green and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. For Goose Green, the closest hospital is Hertford County Hospital, roughly 3 miles north-west. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that is as true in a care home as in a hospital. Goose Green, about 18 miles from central London, is within our usual area. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
Healthcare buildings such as Hertford County Hospital, about 3 miles north-west, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Goose Green, yours matters too. School buildings such as Westfield Community Primary School are usually done in the holidays, so classrooms are not disturbed.

What happens on the day
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. For a village or hamlet like Goose Green, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- After photos are taken and the certificate issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.

What else we do in Goose Green
Multi-site and managed buildings
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Faulty motors, drives or bearings
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
