What affects the quote in Marsh Benham
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The scale of the work
- How easy every part is to reach
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet

AHU cleaning in Marsh Benham
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 supply and extract fans, internal panels and filter sections, and the jobs we see most are air handling units due a clean after building work and drain trays holding standing water.
Work in a small place like Marsh Benham starts with agreeing access and timings.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Related advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

What a clean won’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Building management system faults
- The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
- A system that is undersized for the building
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Where we work
- Drain trays
- Supply and extract fans
- Heating and cooling coils
- Dampers and louvres
- Filter sections
- Internal panels
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
- Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Flag stale or damp smells in the supply air
When we’ve closed the unit up, it can be restarted with your site team. Keep an eye on the condensate drain over the next few days to make sure it stays clear.
Keep the area around the intake clear. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.
Leave it or put it right?
Tenants, auditors and owners may want proof that the air handling plant is kept clean. A TR19® certificate and photo report give you that, ready to show anyone who asks. Planning a trip to Marsh Benham ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Common questions in Marsh Benham
Do you work at weekends in Marsh Benham?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Marsh Benham doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you cover smaller places like Marsh Benham?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
How far ahead should we book?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes. We clean supply and extract ductwork to TR19® Air as well. Cleaning the unit and ducts together often makes sense, and we can quote for both.
How long will the unit be out of action?
As a guide, it takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. The shutdown is planned to fit, including evenings or weekends.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
