Middle Stoke: your questions answered

Do you work at weekends in Middle Stoke?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Middle Stoke keeps running as normal. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.

Do you cover Middle Stoke for AHU cleaning?

Yes, Middle Stoke 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 price the work without visiting?

Yes, where the photos show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.

What do you need from me for a quote?

A short description and a few photos plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.

Which sectors do you work in?

Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.

Do you give a certificate after the clean?

Yes. You receive a certificate and a report showing each section before and after, with any faults we noticed.

How much notice do you need?

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.

AHU cleaning in Middle Stoke

Our AHU cleaning covers sites in Middle Stoke and the rest of Medway, in offices, schools, hospitals, care homes and retail. Units are cleaned when the site can spare them, often evenings, overnight or weekends. The work covers filter sections, dampers and louvres and drain trays, and common reasons people get in touch are debris and leaves in the fresh air intake and dirty coils holding back the airflow.

For a building in or near Middle Stoke, 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.

Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Middle Stoke

We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:

  • How big the system is
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule

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 make a difference.

Asking for a quote

What to send for a quote:

  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is

Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you’ll typically have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

What happens on the day

The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Middle Stoke.

  1. First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
  2. Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
  3. Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
  4. We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
  5. We take after photos and issue the certificate and report.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

Getting a quote

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

When it’s something else

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:

  • Damaged coils beyond cleaning
  • Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
  • A system that’s undersized for the building

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.

Where we work

  • Supply and extract fans
  • Dampers and louvres
  • Filter sections
  • Drain trays
  • Internal panels
  • Heating and cooling coils

When to call us in Middle Stoke

Wherever there’s a cooling coil, there’s condensate. A blocked outlet or a badly sloped tray leaves standing water, and slime and smells soon follow.

Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Air handling units with blocked filters
  • Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
  • Units that have only ever had filter changes
  • Plant that needs cleaning after a refit

If you manage a school such as Stoke Primary Academy, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

What your quote should include

  • Whether VAT is included
  • What paperwork you get at the end
  • What insurance they carry
  • Whether a survey comes first

Our hiring checklist

What staff can safely do

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Aftercare tips

A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:

  • Report water on the plant room floor
  • Make sure condensate is draining away
  • Book the next check in line with the report
  • Don’t ignore odours coming through the grilles

Once the clean is done, we send a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after pictures. They belong in the plant or maintenance log.

Check drain trays and condensate drains during routine maintenance. A drain that is cleared early never gets to the slime stage.
