TR19 inspection across the Isle of Wight: what to expect

Taking on a kitchen in the Isle of Wight with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. We survey the system, measure the grease and tell you what needs doing, so the next step is based on facts. We are often asked to deal with post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean and parts of the system left out of past cleans, across pre-clean surveys, post-clean checks and wet film thickness tests.

The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system, and we clear up before we go.

  1. We go through any past certificates and reports.
  2. We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
  3. Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
  4. Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
  5. We report back with readings and a fixed quote.

How we quote

One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.

Ask for a quote

Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.

Landmarks near Newport

Typical jobs here are in premises near Seaclose Park, Castle Inn and Island Innovation VI Form Campus and the streets around them. Other local landmarks include Christ The King College (0.6 miles south-west) and Nine Acres Primary School (within half a mile south). Nearby you will also find Carisbrooke Castle (1 mile south-west) and St Mary's Hospital (0.8 miles north). Open spaces near Newport include Briddlesford Nature Reserve and Mill Hill.

Kitchen extracts across the Isle of Wight

From Newport, Ryde and Cowes to its smaller places, the Isle of Wight has kitchens of every size. Each extract is cleaned to the same TR19® standard, canopy to discharge.

London and the South East cover everything from city basements to rural kitchens. Wherever the site is in the Isle of Wight, the work is done to the same TR19® standard. Near the coast in the Isle of Wight, salt and damp speed up corrosion in fans, ducts and dampers, which is worth knowing when systems are inspected.

Newport: Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Mary's Hospital (about 0.8 miles north), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Newport (Carisbrooke Castle is about 1 mile south-west), fitting access panels needs care.

Honest limits

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:

  • Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
  • Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
  • Ductwork that was designed or installed badly

Between visits

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:

  • Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
  • Keep access panels clear and unpainted
  • Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
  • Keep to the recommended interval

Where sections couldn’t be reached, the report says where access panels would help. Fitting them before the next clean means the whole system gets done.

Keep filters clean and in place. Gaps around filters let grease get past them.

What happens if it’s left?

Without readings, you are guessing when to clean. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, which you won’t know without measuring.

What affects the quote in the Isle of Wight

There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:

  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • How big the system is
  • The times the site is available
  • The number of sites or systems

Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:

  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

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 your team can do, and what needs us

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

The Isle of Wight questions

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.

How far ahead should we book?

It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we normally come back within one working day. If photos are not enough, we’ll survey first.

Can you inspect our extract for our insurance company?

Yes. Insurers often want evidence the extract is managed to TR19®, and an audit report gives you that, along with any actions needed.

What is grease thickness testing?

WFTT and DTT are the two methods for measuring grease thickness, in microns. Readings are taken at set points through the system.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.

How much time does an inspection need?

As a guide, it takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. System size and access decide the rest.
