What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The times the site is available
- The condition of the system
- A single visit or a regular plan
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Helping us quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
AHU cleaning in Upper Lambourn
Think of an AHU clean as a full check-up for the ventilation. Every section is opened, cleaned and photographed, so you can see the unit’s condition for yourself. If you are dealing with units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover and blocked condensate drains and slimy trays, we can put it right, from filter sections, supply and extract fans and internal panels onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Upper Lambourn, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What happens on the day
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Upper Lambourn.
- 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 are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Move anything stored near the system
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Get a fixed quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

How the job changes from site to site
Internal casing and panels
Damaged internal linings or loose panels can shed material into the air. Anything like that is recorded with photos.
Fans and fan sections
Every bit of air passes the fan, so a dirty fan sends dirt downstream. The impeller, its housing and the fan chamber are cleaned.
Do you need AHU cleaning in Upper Lambourn?
Cooling coils create condensation, and that water has to go somewhere. A blocked outlet or a badly sloped tray leaves standing water, and that’s where slime and odours start.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Condensate trays that won’t empty
Around Upper Lambourn, as anywhere, ventilation cleaning begins with an inspection.
What to look for in a quote
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- What insurance they carry

What a clean will not put right
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Dampers and louvres
- Internal panels
- Supply and extract fans

What happens if it’s left?
Facilities teams are often asked for evidence that the ventilation is looked after. Our certificate and photo report give you clear evidence, for audits, tenants or your own peace of mind. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
