Air handling unit cleaning in Great Tey, Essex

- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
- Filters that are clogged or overdue

For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Great Tey and across Essex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
How we handle AHU cleaning in Great Tey
Where a building in Great Tey has had little more than filter changes, there may be dirt on the coils, fan and casing that nobody has looked at. A full AHU clean takes in the whole unit. If you are dealing with odours coming through the supply air and filters that are clogged or overdue, we can put it right, from heating and cooling coils, dampers and louvres and filter sections onwards.
For a building in or near Great Tey, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

How we price AHU cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The scale of the work
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- How many systems or sites are involved
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Any previous report or certificate
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
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, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Common questions in Great Tey
Is AHU cleaning available in Great Tey?
Yes, Great Tey is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Get in touch with the details and we’ll arrange a survey.
Can you work in Great Tey outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Great Tey needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
We clean the unit and flag faults rather than repair them, with photos where it helps.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
- Note any water around the unit or leaks below it
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
Photos in the report cover the filters, coils, drain tray, fan and casing, and note any part we couldn’t get to. Any defects we noticed, like a leaking tray or damaged lining, are listed.
Have the unit inspected regularly, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air, rather than waiting for a problem.
When something else is needed
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Near you in Great Tey

Well-known places in the area include Mount Bures (4.1 miles north) and Halstead Hospital (5.7 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Sergeants Orchard.
The process
We’re used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Great Tey and turn up when the site is quiet.
- 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.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after photos.
Getting ready for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
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 give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Places near Great Tey
What else we do in Great Tey
What we’re called out for in Great Tey
An AHU’s intake draws in outdoor air and everything in it: dust, pollen, leaves and debris. The intake section and first filters take the brunt, and some travels further into the unit.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Drain trays holding standing water
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Great Tey, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Halstead Hospital (about 5.7 miles north-west).
Before you book anyone
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether the price is fixed
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
Why act early in Great Tey
Leave an AHU uncleaned and the dirt doesn’t stay put. It moves on into the ductwork and out into the rooms, so cleaning the ducts without the unit only goes so far. It’s simpler to plan the work at Great Tey now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
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 will explain each part.
