TR19 inspection in Bailey's Hard, done properly

A pre-clean survey looks at the whole system, from canopy to discharge. Access is checked along the full length, and record grease readings at set points. If you’re dealing with post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean and cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen, we can put it right.

Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Why it’s worth doing now in Bailey's Hard

Surveying first means the clean goes to plan. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, and the quote reflects the real job. In a place like Bailey's Hard, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Bailey's Hard?

Grease is fuel. Flames from the range can be pulled into the canopy and travel through the ducts to other parts of the building. Measuring it is the first step to keeping it under control.

Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
  • Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
  • Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
  • Checking the result of a recent clean

Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Beaulieu Palace House is about 0.8 miles north-west), access may need planning.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether a written report and photos are included

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

What the work involves, part by part

Schools, hospitals and care homes

In healthcare and care settings, kitchens may run from early until late. Testing shows if the cleaning interval keeps pace.

Horizontal duct runs

Grease can gather thickly at bends and along long runs, out of sight of the kitchen.

What affects the quote in Bailey's Hard

The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:

  • What state the system is in
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

What we need to know

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:

  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • The postcode and the type of business

We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

How the visit works

Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Bailey's Hard.

  1. Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
  2. The same access points are opened up.
  3. We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
  4. Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
  5. We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Getting a quote

To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.

Advice

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, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Bailey's Hard questions

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Bailey's Hard?

Kitchens in Bailey's Hard are inspected by New Forest council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.

Does the sea air around Bailey's Hard make a difference to TR19 inspection?

It can. Bailey's Hard is within about 2 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion. A fan housing that is rusting near the coast can fail sooner, so it’s worth catching early.

How much time does an inspection need?

It takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. The visit is timed so cooking isn’t disrupted.

What about areas you can’t get to?

Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

Do you look at the system first?

Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.

Where does the waste go?

Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.

Do you work in Bailey's Hard?

Yes. We work in Bailey's Hard and the rest of Hampshire, within our South East and London area. To book, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Keeping the system healthy

How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep to the recommended interval
  • Keep the route to access panels clear
  • Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
  • Store grease readings where your insurer can see them

Keep the verification report next to the certificate it relates to. The pair gives a clear record of the clean and the check.

Close the access gaps found during inspection, so grease is not left building in hidden parts.
