Your questions about TR19 inspection in Coryton

Which fire authority looks after Coryton?

Essex County Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Coryton. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.

Which council inspects kitchens in Coryton?

That is Thurrock council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Coryton. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.

What information do you need?

Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Is Coryton in your area?

Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, and that includes Coryton.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

What is post-clean verification?

It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, whoever did the clean.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.

What grease levels does TR19 allow?

Under TR19® Grease, the mean thickness should not exceed 200 microns between cleans. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning.

About our TR19 inspection in Coryton

BESA’s minimum cleaning frequencies depend on how long the kitchen cooks each day: every 3 months for heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day, every 6 months for moderate use of 6 to 12 hours, and every 12 months for light use of 2 to 6 hours. Grease testing shows whether your kitchen needs cleaning more often than that. Common call-outs are for extracts that have never been grease tested and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean, on access surveys, post-clean checks and pre-clean surveys.

Somewhere as small as Coryton, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.

The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

How we price TR19 inspection

Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • The size of the system
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • Travel, parking and unloading

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Helping us quote

You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:

  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you’ll typically have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Leave it or put it right?

Don’t wait for an EHO visit or insurance renewal to find gaps in your extract records. An inspection now gives a site in Coryton a current picture. With notice, the visit to Coryton can be fitted around your bookings and events.

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

When it’s something else

A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

  • Installation problems, which fall under design guidance such as DW172
  • Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
  • Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What the work covers

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

How the job changes from site to site

Vertical risers

Risers can be hard to get into. The survey shows exactly what access there is.

Restaurants, pubs and hotels

Heavy use under BESA guidance, 12 to 16 hours a day, means a clean at least every 3 months, with testing showing whether more is needed.

Kitchen extracts in Coryton

Coryton is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. The fire and rescue service for Coryton is Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Kitchens in Coryton get their food hygiene inspections from Thurrock council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

A hospital like Basildon University Hospital, about 3.9 miles north-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

When to call us in Coryton

Some parts of a system are hard to reach, so those sections can be skipped time and again. An inspection of a system in Coryton shows where access panels are missing, so panels can be fitted.

Common reasons sites call us include:

  • Uncertainty over how often to clean
  • Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
  • Extracts that have never been grease tested
  • Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean

Around Coryton, as anywhere, we clean the parts you can’t see as well as the canopy you can.

What to look for in a quote

  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • Whether the figure could change on the day
  • Whether a survey comes first
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered

Questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Coryton and turn up when the site is quiet.

  1. After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
  2. The same access points are opened up.
  3. Grease readings are taken again at set points.
  4. Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
  5. We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

How to get a quote

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
