Multi-site and managed buildings
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What happens on the day
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Great Shoddesden run smoothly.
- First the unit is surveyed, from pictures or a visit, and the scope agreed.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Do you need AHU cleaning in Great Shoddesden?
Wherever there’s a cooling coil, there’s condensate. A blocked outlet or a badly sloped tray leaves standing water, and that’s where slime and odours start.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Air handling units with blocked filters
- Air handling units never cleaned inside
- Condensate trays that will not empty
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
If you manage a school such as Ludgershall Castle Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Is Great Shoddesden in your area for AHU cleaning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Great Shoddesden is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we’ll arrange a survey.
When should our AHU next be cleaned?
It depends on the unit, the filters and how the building is used. Regular inspection shows when it’s due, and we will suggest an interval after the first clean.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Can you fix a faulty AHU?
The clean includes noting faults, but repairs sit with your maintenance contractor, with photos where it helps.
How we price AHU cleaning
You’ll get a fixed price before any work starts. It’s based on:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The scale of the work
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The postcode and the type of business
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You’ll usually have a quote within one working day.
Different parts, different methods
Internal casing and panels
Loose or damaged linings inside a unit can break up into the airstream. We note any we find in the report.
Fans and fan sections
Before the fan is touched, the unit is shut down and made safe in agreement with the site.
Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer.
What the work covers
- Dampers and louvres
- Internal panels
- Filter sections
- Heating and cooling coils
- Supply and extract fans
- Drain trays
Why deal with it now?
Dirty coils and fans make the unit strain to move the same air. The result is extra wear and a building that does not feel as comfortable, and a clean on your terms beats a breakdown on nobody’s. In a small place like Great Shoddesden, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
