TR19 inspection across Ewshot

Part by part

Canopy and plenum

Behind the filters, the plenum catches plenty of grease. Readings and photos are taken in the plenum as part of every survey.

Extract fan and discharge

The extract fan and its housing collect grease too. We check and test them as part of the inspection.

About our TR19 inspection in Ewshot

TR19® Grease says grease should not exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. Grease testing shows which side of those lines you are on. The work covers deposit thickness tests, wet film thickness tests and access surveys, and the jobs we see most are missing access panels found on survey and systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements.

For a kitchen in or near Ewshot, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Ewshot

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • The size of the system

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • The site address and the type of premises
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet

Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Ewshot: your questions answered

Which fire service covers Ewshot?

Fire safety enforcement in Ewshot is handled by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Ewshot?

The local authority for Ewshot is Hart council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.

What should I send you?

The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.

How do you measure grease in a kitchen extract?

We measure the grease at set points with a WFTT or DTT test, then compare them with the TR19® Grease figures.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that cannot wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.

What grease levels does TR19 allow?

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. Our report sets your readings against both.

How do you protect the area?

By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.

How the visit works

Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system, and we clear up before we go. Visits to a village like Ewshot are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.

  1. The visit is arranged for when the kitchen is not busy.
  2. The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
  3. Grease thickness is measured at set points by WFTT or DTT.
  4. Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
  5. We send a report setting out the readings, photos and next steps.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

TR19 inspection in Ewshot: the local picture

Food Standards Agency data counts about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 4 takeaways and sandwich shops across Ewshot and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). For any of them with a canopy, measuring grease is better than guessing when to clean. Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers Ewshot. 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. Kitchens in Ewshot get their food hygiene inspections from Hart council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Term dates shape school work: for a school like St Nicholas' School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Farnham Castle is about 1.9 miles south-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Fleet Community Hospital about 3.4 miles north, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Between visits

How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep to the recommended interval
  • File every inspection report with your certificates
  • Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
  • Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge

For an insurer audit, send them the report as it is, including readings, photos and any inaccessible sections.

Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Missing or damaged filters let grease straight into the plenum.

What a clean will not put right

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what TR19 inspection won’t do:

  • A faulty or failing extract fan
  • Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
  • The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly.
