Part by part

Smaller units in ceiling voids are part of the work as well. We protect the area below before opening them.
Internal casing and panels
We open each section through its doors and close them securely when we’re done, and check every one is shut.
How we handle AHU cleaning in Westbourne Green
Every supply and extract system relies on the air handling unit at its centre: air is pulled in, filtered, conditioned and sent out through the ducts. Anything that collects inside the unit can end up in the rooms it serves, so cleaning the unit matters as much as cleaning the ducts. The work covers drain trays, internal panels and heating and cooling coils, and people most often call us about air handling units due a clean after building work and dust-coated heating and cooling coils.
Many London buildings have had their ventilation extended and altered through several fit-outs, with old runs left behind that are hard to reach. In Westbourne Green, as elsewhere, cleaning starts with an inspection of what’s there.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What your team can do, and what needs us
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Westbourne Green
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Westbourne Green
Filters that aren’t changed or cleaned on time clog up, cutting airflow and sometimes letting dirty air bypass them altogether. Then the rest of the unit takes the load.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Odours coming through the supply air
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
If you manage shops or offices close to London Paddington station, a TR19® Air inspection shows whether the ductwork needs cleaning.
What your quote should include
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
What affects the quote in Westbourne Green
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- The condition of the system
- The size of the system
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your last certificate, test record or report
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, you get a fixed price before any work starts.
How it works
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one, and we clear up before we go. In Westbourne Green, as across London, we normally work overnight or at weekends and hand the site back ready to open.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Clear the space around the work
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Do you work at weekends in Westbourne Green?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Westbourne Green needn’t be disturbed. When you call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Westbourne Green in the summer holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. There are about 92 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Westbourne Green. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Will the ventilation be off while you clean?
Yes. Cleaning needs the unit off and isolated, so we plan it for a time that suits the building.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, where the pictures show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, and the quote follows that.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
We clean the unit and flag faults rather than repair them, with the details in the report.
What information do you need?
Some photos and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Ventilation in Westbourne Green buildings
Food Standards Agency data includes about 92 schools, colleges and universities, about 37 care, childcare and hospital premises and about 144 hotels and guest houses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Westbourne Green. Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. Ventilation cleaning in London buildings is normally planned for evenings or weekends. About under half a mile north-west of Westbourne Green is Paddington General Hospital, the nearest hospital. Hospitals show how much a building can rely on its ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites rely on theirs too.
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Paddington General Hospital (about less than half a mile north-west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts. Wherever a school like Edward Wilson Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
