TR19 inspection in Edgehill

Many insurers ask for proof that kitchen extract systems are cleaned and inspected to TR19®. Missing records can lead to a claim being reduced or refused. Our TR19 audits give sites in Edgehill and across Oxfordshire a clear record of the system’s condition. If you’re dealing with kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings and uncertainty over how often to clean, we can put it right.

In a village or hamlet like Edgehill, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.

We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re 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 Edgehill

In Edgehill, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Cherwell council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Fire safety in Edgehill falls to Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Upton House is about 1 mile south), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Peter or anywhere around Edgehill, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

How the job changes from site to site

Vertical risers

Vertical risers take the extract up through the floors. Grease can run down and collect at the base, so the base is a key test point.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

In healthcare and care settings, kitchens may run from early until late. Testing shows if the cleaning interval keeps pace.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection

The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:

  • The size of the system
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids

What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • Problems your staff have spotted

To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email 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. We usually come back within one working day.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Edgehill

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.

What staff can safely do

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

What we do, step by step

Each visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the TR19 inspection, clear away and leave you the report. On site, the work takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Edgehill.

  1. After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
  2. We open the access points used on the clean.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Let us know about parking and loading

How to get a quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Advice

FAQs for Edgehill

Do you work at weekends in Edgehill?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Edgehill needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.

Can you get to a site in Edgehill?

Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Edgehill included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.

Do you look at the system first?

Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.

Why survey before a clean?

We look at the system from canopy to discharge, take grease readings and check access. It lets us plan the clean and give you a fixed quote.

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.

Is a quote from photos possible?

Yes, where the pictures show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.

When something else is needed

We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:

  • Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
  • Mechanical faults in the extract
  • The legal duty, which stays with the responsible person

If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before you book.
