About our TR19 inspection in Brook Green
Insurance policies often require evidence of TR19® cleaning and inspection. Missing records can lead to a claim being reduced or refused. Our TR19 audits give sites in Brook Green and across Greater London a clear record of the system’s condition. Common call-outs are for parts of the system left out of past cleans and sites with gaps in their extract records, on access surveys, post-clean checks and pre-clean surveys.
London kitchens are often tucked into basements or the back of a building, and the duct may run up through several floors before it discharges at the roof. In Brook Green, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Why it’s worth doing now in Brook Green
If a kitchen in Brook Green has been cleaned on the same calendar for years, there’s no way to know if that interval is right without measuring. Testing gives you the evidence to set it properly. Every month a London system goes without attention adds to what has to be done later.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
What you get with us
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
- A written report with pictures after every visit
- Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
- We’re fully insured

Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Report grease dripping from the canopy
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- File every inspection report with your certificates
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
Revisit the cleaning interval whenever the menu or hours change. Fresh readings show whether it needs to change.
When it’s something else
TR19 inspection cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- Design faults in the extract system
- The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How it works
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Getting kit into a London building takes planning, so let us know where we can load and park in Brook Green.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen isn’t busy.
- The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
- You get a report with readings, photos and recommendations.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know about parking and loading
Getting a quote
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The scale of the work
- The number of sites or systems
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- What state the system is in
Putting the work off seldom saves money. 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, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The postcode and the type of business
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.

Typically, the inspection takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. The size of the system and the access make the difference.
What does TR19 inspection cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before work begins.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Brook Green
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
TR19 inspection in Brook Green: the local picture
The FSA’s data shows about 130 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 79 hotels and B&Bs registered in Brook Green and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Environmental health officers from Hammersmith and Fulham council inspect food businesses in Brook Green. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. The fire and rescue service for Brook Green is London Fire Brigade. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as West London Hospital (about within half a mile south), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. School kitchens, at schools like Larmenier & Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. Church and community hall kitchens, near The Parish Church of Saint Mary or anywhere around Brook Green, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
