AHU cleaning in Round Street, done properly
We clean air handling units for buildings in Round Street and across Kent, working to TR19® Air, in buildings such as offices, schools, healthcare sites and shops. Units are cleaned when the site can spare them, often evenings, overnight or weekends. The work covers supply and extract fans, drain trays and filter sections, and the jobs we see most are dust-coated heating and cooling coils and dirty filters cutting the airflow.
Work in a small place like Round Street starts with agreeing access and timings.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What affects the quote in Round Street
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- The scale of the work
- The times the site is available
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The number of sites or systems
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- A few general shots of the system
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Honest limits
AHU cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Faulty motors, drives or bearings
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Questions from Round Street
Do you clean school ventilation in Round Street in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 5 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Round Street. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
Can you get to a site in Round Street?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes, supply and extract ducts, grilles and diffusers. The survey shows whether the ducts need cleaning now.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
How much does AHU cleaning cost in Round Street?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
What’s TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
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.
Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
- Flag stale or damp smells in the supply air
- Book the next check in line with the report
If the ductwork hasn’t been cleaned, consider it next. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can survey both.
Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due, rather than waiting for a problem.
How the job changes from site to site
Internal casing and panels
The inside walls and floor of the casing collect dust and debris. We clean each section from intake to discharge.
Drain trays
Older trays can corrode and start leaking. We record their condition with photos so repairs can be planned.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. Somewhere as small as Round Street, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We start with a survey of the unit and a fixed quote for the work.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- Filters, coils, fan section and casing are cleaned in turn.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- A TR19® certificate and photo report follow the clean.
How to prepare
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
Ask for a quote
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You will typically have a quote within one working day.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
