TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Bunce Common
Think of a TR19 inspection as the diagnosis before the treatment. We look at the system, take grease readings and photograph what we find, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. If you are dealing with surveys needed before quoting a full clean and missing access panels found on survey, we can put it right, from access surveys, pre-clean surveys and post-clean checks onwards.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What happens on the day
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Bunce Common run smoothly.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Bartholomew or anywhere around Bunce Common, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning doesn’t 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.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Bunce Common
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How easy every part is to reach
- The condition of the system
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Helping us quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Common questions in Bunce Common
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Bunce Common?
In Bunce Common, it’s Mole Valley council that carries out food hygiene inspections. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Can you come to Bunce Common after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Bunce Common keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Are you accredited?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, where the pictures show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, and the quote follows that.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
Why deal with it now?
After an incident, an insurer can ask to see proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection. Without them, a claim can be reduced or refused. An up-to-date inspection report is a good place to start. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
Why us?
- Trading since 2009
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout

Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Flag oily drips near the extract
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
Keep the verification report next to the certificate it relates to. Together they show the system was cleaned and checked.
Revisit the cleaning interval whenever the menu or hours change. A quick grease test answers the question.
Part by part
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Kitchens that cook for long hours build up grease faster. Readings show if the cleans are frequent enough.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Hospital and care home kitchens can cook all day, every day. Testing shows if the cleaning interval keeps pace.
Signs you need TR19 inspection in Bunce Common
Grease is fuel. Flames from the range can be pulled into the canopy and travel through the ducts to other parts of the building. Knowing how much there is lets you act before it becomes a hazard.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as East Surrey Hospital (about 4.9 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
