How we handle AHU cleaning in Silver Hill
Where a building in Silver Hill has had little more than filter changes, the coils, fan and casing can be carrying far more dirt than anyone has seen. A full clean deals with all of it. The work covers internal panels, dampers and louvres and drain trays, and people most often call us about dirty filters cutting the airflow and blocked condensate drains and slimy trays.
Work in a small place like Silver Hill starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

How we price AHU cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any previous report or certificate
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What a clean won’t put right
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Damaged coils beyond cleaning
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
When to call us in Silver Hill
Planned maintenance often covers belts, motors and filters but not cleaning. So a unit can be well maintained and still dirty.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
Classrooms and halls at schools such as Hurst Green Church of England Primary School and Nursery are easiest to work in when pupils are away.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a survey comes first
- What paperwork you get at the end
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
What we do, step by step
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Silver Hill run smoothly.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- We take after pictures and issue the certificate and report.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
How to get a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before work begins.

How the job changes from site to site
Heating and cooling coils
A dirty coil holds back the air and makes heating and cooling less effective. A clean gets air moving through the coil properly again.
Rooftop and plant room units
Rooftop units take the weather, and intakes can collect leaves and debris. The intake section gets particular attention.
