TR19 Inspection in Blackfield
One call covers TR19 inspection in Blackfield: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
How we handle TR19 inspection in Blackfield
A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. Readings, pictures and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. The work covers post-clean checks, wet film thickness tests and access surveys, and people most often call us about uncertainty over how often to clean and post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean.
Size does not change the work: a kitchen in a place like Blackfield gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Why it’s worth doing now in Blackfield
Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Left alone, grease keeps building between cleans. A visit arranged in advance is far less disruptive than a callout on a busy day.
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 any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Grease, kitchens and Blackfield
The coast is only about 2 miles from Blackfield. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. The Food Standards Agency lists about 5 pubs and bars as registered food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Blackfield. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Environmental health officers from New Forest council inspect food businesses in Blackfield. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Coldeast is the nearest hospital to Blackfield, about 5.2 miles north-east. Church and community hall kitchens, near St Francis or anywhere around Blackfield, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Blackfield (Beaulieu Palace House is about 3.6 miles west), fitting access panels needs care.
Blackfield is about 3 miles south-east of Hythe, in Hampshire. If you need TR19 inspection in Blackfield, please ring 0345 646 2711 or email us for a fixed quote.

Part by part
Extract fan and discharge
The discharge at the end of the system is checked as well, since grease reaches the very end of the system.
Vertical risers
Risers in multi-storey buildings can pass through other areas, so access is planned in advance.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans
- Mention new equipment or longer hours at the next test
Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. 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.
How we price TR19 inspection
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The condition of the system
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Parking and loading at the site
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
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 we start.
What happens on the day
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Blackfield, so let us know how to reach it.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen isn’t busy.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- We photograph the test points and record any sections we can’t reach.
- We send a report setting out the readings, photos and next steps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the system
Ask for a quote
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.
Advice
Blackfield questions
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Blackfield out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 5 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Blackfield. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Which fire service covers Blackfield?
That’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Do you cover Blackfield?
Yes. We cover Blackfield and the rest of Hampshire, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
What is a WFTT or DTT grease test?
Readings are taken using the Wet Film Thickness Test or the Deposit Thickness Test, and set against the TR19® Grease figures.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
When something else is needed
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
