TR19 inspections and grease testing in Crockerhill, West Sussex

TR19 inspection around Crockerhill

There are about 9 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Crockerhill, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. It’s Arun council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Crockerhill. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fire safety in Crockerhill falls to West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.

School kitchens, at schools like Tangmere Primary Academy for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Chichester Centre (about 3.7 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Goodwood House is about 2.6 miles north-west), access may need planning.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

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.

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Multi-site and managed buildings

For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
