TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Crews Hill
Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. In a busy kitchen, grease can build faster than the minimum intervals allow for, which is why measurement matters. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. The work covers insurer audits, access surveys and post-clean checks, and the jobs we see most are insurers asking for TR19 evidence and missing access panels found on survey.
Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, with extract ducts that can climb several floors to discharge at roof level. In Crews Hill, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
The sign-off is always in writing: 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.

Why act early in Crews Hill
Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Left alone, grease keeps building between cleans. For a site in Crews Hill, fitting the work in overnight now is far easier than closing at short notice later.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Grease, kitchens and Crews Hill
The Food Standards Agency lists about 6 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses in and around Crews Hill, up to about a mile and a half out. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Environmental health officers from Enfield council inspect food businesses in Crews Hill. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Overnight is the normal time to clean a London kitchen extract, so trading is not affected.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St John's CofE Primary School or anywhere near Crews Hill, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run a café or takeaway near Crews Hill station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.

What we are called out for in Crews Hill
Grease builds up as cooking vapour cools inside the extract. It often collects where nobody can see it: the plenum, bends and horizontal runs.
Look out for any of the following:
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Chase Farm Hospital is the nearest hospital to Crews Hill, about 1 mile south.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
How we price TR19 inspection
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The times the site is available
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The size of the system
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
Helping us quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The site address and the type of premises
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
