Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Mention new equipment or longer hours at the next test
The report recommends when the system should next be cleaned and tested, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
Regular grease readings keep the cleaning interval honest. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.
How we handle TR19 inspection in Boyatt Wood
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. The work covers wet film thickness tests, pre-clean surveys and insurer audits, and people most often call us about missing access panels found on survey and surveys needed before quoting a full clean.
For a smaller kitchen near Boyatt Wood, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

When to call us in Boyatt Wood
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers look to TR19® as the benchmark. TR19® itself is not law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping grease under control.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Crestwood Community School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Boyatt Wood
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The times the site is available
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- How easy every part is to reach
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Want a quote for TR19 inspection? Please ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with a few details about the site. We’ll talk you through the work and give you a fixed quote before you commit to anything.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the TR19 inspection, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Everything the job in Boyatt Wood needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Clear the space around the work
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

TR19 inspection around Boyatt Wood
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 74 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 36 takeaways across Boyatt Wood and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. Kitchens in Boyatt Wood get their food hygiene inspections from Eastleigh council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Boyatt Wood. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Moorgreen Hospital about 3.9 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. If you run a café or takeaway near Eastleigh station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.
