- Missing access panels found on survey
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
How we handle TR19 inspection in Enfield Island Village
Before any clean in Enfield Island Village, we survey the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, fan and discharge. Access is checked along the full length, and grease readings are taken at set points. If you’re dealing with pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean and parts of the system left out of past cleans, we can put it right.
In London, few kitchens can spare a day to close, so extract cleaning in Enfield Island Village is typically done overnight, after the last service. Parking, loading and access to the roof are agreed with the building before the night of the clean.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.

Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Flag oily drips near the extract
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
Common questions in Enfield Island Village
Does London parking affect a job in Enfield Island Village?
Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. Working overnight, as we often do in London, typically makes it simpler.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Enfield Island Village?
Enfield Island Village is in the area of London Fire Brigade. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
Verification means repeat readings and pictures once the clean is done. The report flags anything missed.
How much time does an inspection need?
Testing takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Large or multiple systems take longer, and you can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line to book it in.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
Leave it or put it right?
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. If grease reaches 500 microns anywhere, TR19® Grease calls for immediate spot cleaning, and you can only act on that if you’ve measured it. In a London building, a problem in a duct, damper or fan rarely stays in one unit.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we’re called out for in Enfield Island Village
TR19® is the benchmark that insurers, fire officers and EHOs refer to. It is not legislation; the legal duty comes from the Fire Safety Order 2005, under which the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and grease in the extract is part of that risk.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Sections of duct that can’t be reached
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Checking the result of a recent clean
Where a hall near Ss Peter and Paul Church, or anywhere in Enfield Island Village, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

How the job changes from site to site
Vertical risers
Access to risers is often limited. We record what can and can’t be reached.
Canopy and plenum
Clean-looking filters don’t mean a clean plenum. That’s why we test behind them.
What we do, step by step
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Before any visit in Enfield Island Village, we agree where the van can stop and how equipment reaches the system.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- Grease readings are taken again at set points.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Move anything stored near the system

Advice
Kitchen extracts in Enfield Island Village
The FSA’s data shows about 16 pubs, bars and clubs registered within about 1.5 miles of central Enfield Island Village. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. It’s Enfield council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Enfield Island Village. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. London Fire Brigade covers Enfield Island Village. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Prince of Wales Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Michaels Hospital (about 3 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
