Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Matching Green
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What to send for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The postcode and the type of business
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Questions from Matching Green
Do you work overnight in Matching Green?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Matching Green can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Can you do AHU cleaning in Matching Green?
Yes, we work in Matching Green and the places around it. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with a few details of the site.
Can you price the work without visiting?
In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What should I send you?
A short description and a few pictures, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we will ask.
Do you repair air handling units?
We clean the unit and flag faults rather than repair them, with photos where it helps.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
- Store the TR19 paperwork where auditors can find it
- Book the next check in line with the report
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
Stick to the filter change schedule, as that does more than anything to keep the unit clean. Record each change in the maintenance log.
Change or clean filters on time. Overloaded filters let more dirt through to the coils and fan.
What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. 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 one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Matching Green, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- The area is protected and the unit made safe.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.
How to prepare
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear loose items from the work area
How to get a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and any previous report or certificate. Then call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

What else we do in Matching Green
Leave it or put it right?
A clogged coil or dirty fan makes the unit work harder for the same airflow. That means more wear on the motor and rooms that feel less fresh, and a clean on your terms beats a breakdown on nobody’s. A planned visit to Matching Green is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.

What the work involves, part by part
Filters
Every AHU relies on its filters to catch dust before it reaches the coils. As part of the clean, filters are checked and cleaned or replaced as agreed, and clean the filter housing.
Rooftop and plant room units
Smaller units in ceiling voids are part of the work as well. The space underneath is protected with sheeting first.
