FAQs for Ramsden Heath
Can the work in Ramsden Heath be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Ramsden Heath can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Will you come out to Ramsden Heath?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Ramsden Heath included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
Do you clean the ductwork as well?
Yes. We clean supply and extract ductwork to TR19® Air as well. Cleaning the unit and ducts together often makes sense, and we can survey both on the same visit.
How do you protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Every site has its own report.
What do you do with what you remove?
It leaves the site with us when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
AHU cleaning in Ramsden Heath
Units vary a lot in size, age and layout, from a small ceiling-mounted unit to a large rooftop plant. Every job starts with a survey, from photos or on site, followed by a fixed quote, so you know where you stand. Typical jobs include dirty fans and fan housings and rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs, on dampers and louvres, internal panels and heating and cooling coils.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Advice
Managing agents and facilities teams in Ramsden Heath
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Leave it or put it right?
Dirt left in an air handling unit does not stay in the unit. It’s carried through the ductwork and out of the grilles, which is why the unit and the ducts are best cleaned together. Somewhere as small as Ramsden Heath, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before work begins.
Why book with us

What we are called out for in Ramsden Heath
Dirt in an AHU matters in two ways: the unit supplies the air people breathe, and a dirty unit has to work harder. For the people using the building every day, that is the air they breathe for hours on end.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Dirty fans and fan housings
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
- Air handling units never cleaned inside
Healthcare buildings such as Mayflower Community Hospital, about 3.1 miles west, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Ramsden Heath, yours matters too.
What your quote should include
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether they recommend a next date
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
How we price AHU cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The times the site is available
- The scale of the work
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll talk you through it.
Helping us quote
You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Any previous report or certificate
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
