AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Ufton Green
Our AHU cleaning covers sites in Ufton Green and the rest of West Berkshire, in buildings such as offices, schools, healthcare sites and shops. The work is timed around when the system can be switched off, including evenings, nights and weekends. The work covers supply and extract fans, drain trays and internal panels, and people most often call us about dust-coated heating and cooling coils and air handling units with blocked filters.
In a village or hamlet like Ufton Green, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the AHU cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. In a small place like Ufton Green, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- The area is protected and the unit made safe.
- Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
Before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Advice
When it’s something else
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
- The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Heating and cooling coils
- Drain trays
- Internal panels
- Dampers and louvres
- Filter sections
- Supply and extract fans
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Why deal with it now?
Stuffy rooms and stale smells in a building in Ufton Green can sometimes be traced back to the AHU. A clean tackles the source instead of masking it. If the system at a site near Ufton Green fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
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 are unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
We recommend when the unit should next be inspected or cleaned, based on what we found. Under TR19® Air the timing is set by inspection and risk, not a fixed calendar.
Have the unit inspected regularly, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air instead of leaving it to guesswork.

Do you work overnight in Ufton Green?

Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
What do you clean inside the unit?
Every section that collects dirt: filters, coils, tray, fan and panels. We confirm the scope after looking at the unit.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
What does AHU cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote and we’ll typically reply within one working day.
What do you do to protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
Our AHU work is cleaning rather than mechanical repair. If we spot a fault, we note it in the report for your maintenance team to follow up.
What affects the quote in Ufton Green
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- What state the system is in
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Parking and loading at the site
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
