TR19 inspection in Dartmouth Park
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. The work covers access surveys, post-clean checks and wet film thickness tests, and people most often call us about checking the result of a recent clean and sites with gaps in their extract records.
In a London area like Dartmouth Park, a kitchen extract often passes through shared space on its way out: a riser, a service void, the floors above. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Kitchen extracts in Dartmouth Park
Food Standards Agency data counts about 636 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 305 takeaways and sandwich shops within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Dartmouth Park. For any of them with a canopy, measuring grease is better than guessing when to clean. It’s Camden council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Dartmouth Park. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Dartmouth Park sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Dartmouth Park is Royal Northern Hospital, about 0.8 miles east. For schools such as Acland Burghley School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What else we do in Dartmouth Park
How it works
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Getting kit into a London building takes planning, so let us know where we can load and park in Dartmouth Park.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
- We send a report setting out the readings, photos and next steps.
Before we arrive
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Signs you need TR19 inspection in Dartmouth Park
Kitchens change: a new menu, longer hours or more frying can all add grease. A cleaning interval set years ago may no longer fit.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
- Sites with gaps in their extract records
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Mary Brookfield or elsewhere in Dartmouth Park, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Questions to ask before you book
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether the price is fixed
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- Whether VAT is included
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Dartmouth Park
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The scale of the work
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Problems your staff have spotted
If you need TR19 inspection in Dartmouth Park, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
After the inspection, we send a report showing each reading, its location and pictures. File it alongside your TR19 certificates.
Test grease regularly instead of relying on the calendar. It shows if build-up is speeding up.
Dartmouth Park questions
Can you come to Dartmouth Park after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Dartmouth Park does not have to lose a day’s trading. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Which environmental health team covers Dartmouth Park?
That’s Camden council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Dartmouth Park. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
What does TR19 inspection cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
At what point does grease need cleaning?
TR19® Grease says grease should not go over a mean of 200 microns between cleans. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and a few pictures plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
Is Dartmouth Park in your area?
Yes. We cover Dartmouth Park and the rest of Greater London, as part of our work across South East England and London. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
What happens if it’s left?
Without readings, you’re guessing when to clean. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, and you can only act on that if you’ve measured it. In Dartmouth Park, as across London, ductwork often passes through shared risers and other people’s space.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.

What your team can do, and what needs 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 don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
