TR19 inspection in Edmonton
Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. Some kitchens build up grease faster than the minimum intervals assume, and only measurement shows it. We give your risk assessment measured figures rather than guesses. We are often asked to deal with surveys needed before quoting a full clean and sites with gaps in their extract records, on wet film thickness tests, post-clean checks and access surveys.
In a London area like Edmonton, 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, which is why keeping it clean to TR19® matters.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Common problems we fix in Edmonton
Menus, opening hours and cooking styles change over time, and more frying or longer hours mean more grease. A cleaning interval set years ago may no longer fit.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
Commuter trade near Edmonton Green station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.

TR19 inspection around Edmonton
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 186 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 111 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Edmonton. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. Overnight is the normal time to clean a London kitchen extract, so trading isn’t affected. Environmental health officers from Enfield council inspect food businesses in Edmonton. 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.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near All Saints' Church, or anywhere in Edmonton, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Brettenham Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Around Edmonton
Typical jobs here are in premises near NiW Furniture pub, The Latymer School and Starks Field School and the streets around them. There’s a railway station in Edmonton itself: Edmonton Green station. Nearby you will also find Edmonton Green Shopping Centre (less than half a mile north-east) and North Middlesex University Hospital (1 mile south-west). For a walk, there’s Highams Park Lake and Ainslie Wood.
What TR19 inspection cannot fix
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Design faults in the extract system
- Mechanical faults in the extract
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off.

- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- The same access points are opened up.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Ask for a quote
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, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Edmonton: your questions answered
Do you work at weekends in Edmonton?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Edmonton needn’t be disturbed. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Edmonton out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 43 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Edmonton. Send us your term dates when you ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will fit the work in.
What do the grease readings need to be?
TR19® Grease says the mean shouldn’t exceed 200 microns between cleans, with 500 microns or more anywhere needing immediate spot cleaning.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
How long does a TR19 inspection take?
Testing takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Large or multiple systems take longer, so phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will plan it.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
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 can quote for the whole system.
How we price TR19 inspection
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The condition we find in the survey
- The scale of the work
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will talk you through it.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
For TR19 inspection in Edmonton, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.

What the work involves, part by part
Horizontal duct runs
Grease settles on the floor of horizontal ducts as the air cools. Readings are taken along each run through its access panels.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
We test between services, early in the morning or after close so the kitchen keeps cooking.
