TR19 inspection for sites in Broadland Row

TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Broadland Row

A fixed schedule does not always match how a kitchen really cooks. Some kitchens build up grease faster than the minimum intervals assume, and only measurement shows it. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. The work covers post-clean checks, pre-clean surveys and deposit thickness tests, and people most often call us about ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits and an insurer’s request for a TR19 audit.

Work in a small place like Broadland Row starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.

Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How we price TR19 inspection

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Parking and loading at the site
  • What state the system is in
  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing

No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

Asking for a quote

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Problems your staff have spotted

Want a quote for TR19 inspection? Please call 0345 646 2711 or email us with a few details about the site. We will explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before you commit to anything.

Different parts, different methods

Schools, hospitals and care homes

School and college kitchens still need their extract checked. Readings show if the interval is right.

Horizontal duct runs

Sections without access are recorded so it can be fixed before the clean.

Why act early in Broadland Row

Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. In a small place like Broadland Row, a system that fails can take a site out of use.

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, with ISO 9001
  • One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
  • Survey first, then a fixed quote
  • A fixed price before any work starts

See our cost guide or our accreditations.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

Common questions in Broadland Row

Who inspects food businesses in Broadland Row?

That’s Rother council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Broadland Row. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Broadland Row?

That’s East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.

What does a pre-clean survey involve?

We check the layout, the grease levels and the access, so the clean goes to plan. Any access problems are flagged so they can be sorted first.

Is a quote from photos possible?

Often, yes. With good pictures, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.

How much does TR19 inspection cost in Broadland Row?

It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.

What is post-clean verification?

After a clean, we take new readings and photos to show how the system was left. It can follow our own cleans or another contractor’s.

Can you inspect our extract for our insurance company?

Yes. We inspect the system and produce a report with grease readings, pictures and any inaccessible areas. You can pass it straight to your insurer or broker.

What is grease thickness testing?

WFTT and DTT are the two methods for measuring grease thickness, in microns. We take readings at set points from canopy to fan.

What your team can do, and what needs us

If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Honest limits

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • Mechanical faults in the extract
  • Installation problems, which fall under design guidance such as DW172
  • Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet

Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly.

What the work covers

  • Access surveys
  • Wet film thickness tests
  • Insurer audits
  • Pre-clean surveys
  • Post-clean checks
  • Deposit thickness tests

TR19 inspection around Broadland Row

In Broadland Row, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Rother council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Broadland Row, about 50 miles from central London, is within our usual area. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included.

Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Great Dixter is about 4 miles north-west), access may need planning. Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Broadland Row is Conquest Hospital, about 4.8 miles south-west. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near The Parish Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Broadland Row, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
