AHU cleaning in Lockerley
Where a building in Lockerley has had little more than filter changes, the coils, fan and casing can be carrying far more dirt than anyone has seen. A full AHU clean takes in the whole unit. We’re often asked to deal with leaves and litter drawn into the unit and drain trays holding standing water, on internal panels, drain trays and heating and cooling coils.
For a building in or near Lockerley, 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.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- Damaged coils beyond cleaning
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What the work covers
- Dampers and louvres
- Internal panels
- Drain trays
- Filter sections
- Supply and extract fans
- Heating and cooling coils
What happens if it’s left?
Facilities teams are often asked for evidence that the ventilation is looked after. Our certificate and photo report give you clear evidence, ready to show anyone who asks. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Lockerley
Can you work in Lockerley outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Can you get to a site in Lockerley?
Yes. Lockerley 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.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it doesn’t spread.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes. You receive a certificate and a report showing each section before and after, with any faults we noticed.
What does AHU cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before any work starts.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
How we price AHU cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The times the site is available
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.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Want a quote for AHU cleaning? Please give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with a few details about the site. We’ll explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before you commit to anything.
What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit 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 Lockerley.
- We survey the unit from pictures or on site and agree what’s included.
- With your site team, the unit is switched off and isolated, then the area around it protected.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Clear loose items from the work area
Getting 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. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Advice
What the work involves, part by part
Internal casing and panels
We open each section through its doors and close them securely when we are done, and check every one is shut.
Fans and fan sections
Build-up on fan blades can upset the balance and add wear. Cleaning keeps it running as intended.
Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- Don’t ignore odours coming through the grilles
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
- Do not store bins or materials near the intake
The ducts served by the unit may need attention too. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can quote for both.
Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due instead of leaving it to guesswork.
