TR19 inspection in Angmering
Many insurers ask for proof that kitchen extract systems are cleaned and inspected to TR19®. Without it, a claim can be refused or reduced. Our TR19 audits give sites in Angmering and across West Sussex a clear record of the system’s condition. Typical jobs include ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits and surveys needed before quoting a full clean, on pre-clean surveys, insurer audits and wet film thickness tests.
In a smaller place like Angmering, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so cleaning is planned around how much it cooks and what the readings show.
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, and we are fully insured.

An inspection takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Large or multiple systems take longer, and you can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email to book it in.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. Much of our work happens in the evening, overnight or at weekends, so you do not have to close during trading.
Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Angmering
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- The scale of the work
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether several sites go on one quote
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. 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.

What staff can safely do
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.
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, and that’s where we come in.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Tell us about any gates, ladders or locked plant areas at your site near Angmering when you book.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Related advice
What the work involves, part by part
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Heavy use under BESA guidance, 12 to 16 hours a day, means a clean at least every 3 months, and readings show whether that’s enough.
Horizontal duct runs
Bends and long runs can hold heavy deposits, out of sight of the kitchen.
Common problems we fix in Angmering
Grease builds up as cooking vapour cools inside the extract. It often collects where nobody can see it: the plenum, bends and horizontal runs.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Wilfrids Catholic Primary School or anywhere near Angmering, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
What to look for in a quote
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether the figure could change on the day
Between visits
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can arrange it.
Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Gaps around filters let grease get past them.
