Curling Tye Green TR19 inspection
For TR19 inspections and grease testing in Curling Tye Green, one call is all it takes, from survey to sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean

What the work involves, part by part
Extract fan and discharge
We look at where the extract discharges outside, as grease can build up there too.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Kitchens that cook for long hours build up grease faster. Regular testing shows whether the cleaning interval keeps up.
TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Curling Tye Green
A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. Readings, pictures and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the clean can be planned properly. The work covers access surveys, pre-clean surveys and wet film thickness tests, and the jobs we see most are checking the result of a recent clean and missing TR19 certificates or history.
Work in a small place like Curling Tye Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Essex. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Curling Tye Green
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Any permits to work or inductions
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
What happens on the day
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. In a small place like Curling Tye Green, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- Grease readings are taken and photos recorded.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
How to get a quote
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll normally have a quote within one working day.
Advice
FAQs for Curling Tye Green
Is TR19 inspection any different in a coastal place like Curling Tye Green?
It can. Being within about 3 miles of the sea means more corrosion on metalwork in Curling Tye Green than inland. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at each visit.
Do you work overnight in Curling Tye Green?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Curling Tye Green does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What is a WFTT or DTT grease test?
Readings are taken using the Wet Film Thickness Test or the Deposit Thickness Test, then compare them with the TR19® Grease figures.
How often should grease be tested?
It depends on how heavily the kitchen cooks. BESA’s minimum cleaning intervals are every 3, 6 or 12 months for heavy, moderate and light use, and testing shows if your kitchen needs more.
Why survey before a clean?
The survey covers the whole system, grease readings and access to each section. From it, we plan the clean and quote a fixed price.
What do the grease readings need to be?
Two figures matter: a mean of no more than 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns at any single point, which needs immediate spot cleaning. We show your readings against those figures.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Do you work in Curling Tye Green?
Yes. We cover Curling Tye Green and across Essex, within our South East and London area. To book, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Grease, kitchens and Curling Tye Green
Sea air reaches Curling Tye Green, which sits within about 3 miles of the coast. Corrosion on the fan housing and cowl is worth a look at every clean, alongside the grease. There are about 9 restaurants, cafés and canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Curling Tye Green, 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. Curling Tye Green is covered by Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Michael or elsewhere in Curling Tye Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. For schools such as Plume School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Danbury Place, about 3.8 miles west, is one of the historic houses near Curling Tye Green; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

- Wet film thickness tests
- Post-clean checks
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Insurer audits
- Pre-clean surveys
Keeping the system healthy
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
After post-clean verification, file the results with the cleaning certificate. Together they show the system was cleaned and checked.
Close the access gaps found during inspection, so every part of the duct can be cleaned.
