Questions from Teynham Street
Do you cover smaller places like Teynham Street?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Teynham Street is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can the work in Teynham Street be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Teynham Street keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
How long does it take to clean an air handling unit?
As a guide, it takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. We plan the shutdown around that, out of hours if needed.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
How much notice should we give?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Typically, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we normally come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
About our AHU cleaning in Teynham Street
Our AHU cleans for sites in Teynham Street cover the parts that collect dirt: the filter section, heating and cooling coils, drain trays, fan and casing. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report showing the unit before and after. The work covers dampers and louvres, internal panels and drain trays, and the jobs we see most are odours coming through the supply air and leaves and litter drawn into the unit.
In a village or hamlet like Teynham Street, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What happens if it’s left?
A slimy drain tray only gets worse. Left alone, it can overflow, leak into the plant area or ceiling below and spread smells through the system. Dealing with it early keeps the clean straightforward. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before we start.

What the work involves, part by part
Drain trays
Standing water in a tray sits right where the air passes. We clean it and note if the slope or the drain needs attention.
Heating and cooling coils
Because cooling coils run wet, the dirt on them tends to cling. The coil and its drain tray are cleaned as one job.
Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
- Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
When we’ve closed the unit up, it can be restarted with your site team. Check the drain tray is emptying over the first few days to confirm water is draining away.
Don’t let leaves, litter or stored materials build up near the fresh air intake. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.

Advice
Teynham Street buildings and their air
There are about 3 schools, colleges and universities and about 4 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises on the FSA’s food hygiene register within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Teynham Street. Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. At about 41 miles from central London, Teynham Street sits well inside the area we cover. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
If you manage a school such as Teynham Parochial Church of England Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays. For workplaces around Teynham station with mechanical ventilation, cleaning can be done in the evening or at weekends.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Teynham Street
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
