TR19 inspection in Forest Corner
Taking on a kitchen in Forest Corner with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. You get readings, pictures and a clear view of what’s needed, so the next step is based on facts. We are often asked to deal with parts of the system left out of past cleans and extracts that have never been grease tested, across wet film thickness tests, access surveys and pre-clean surveys.
For a kitchen in or near Forest Corner, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by TR19 inspection, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Installation problems, which fall under design guidance such as DW172
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
How the job changes from site to site
Vertical risers
Risers carry the extract up through the building. Grease can drain down and pool at the bottom, so the base is a key test point.
Horizontal duct runs
Grease can gather thickly at bends and along long runs, well away from where anyone looks.
TR19 inspection around Forest Corner
Food Standards Agency data counts about 3 restaurants, cafés and canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Forest Corner. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. In Forest Corner, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from New Forest council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. The fire and rescue service for Forest Corner is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. 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 that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; St Leonard's Hospital is the nearest hospital to Forest Corner, about 5.3 miles south-west. Where a hall near St John the Baptist, or anywhere in Forest Corner, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Signs you need TR19 inspection in Forest Corner
Kitchens change: a new menu, longer hours or more frying can all add grease. A cleaning interval set years ago may no longer fit.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Poulner Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

What we do, step by step
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems, and we clear up before we go. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Forest Corner.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
- The findings go into a report with readings, photos and a recommended next clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Forest Corner questions
Can you come to Forest Corner after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Forest Corner?
The local authority for Forest Corner is New Forest council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Do you carry out TR19 audits for insurers?
Yes. Insurers often want evidence the extract is managed to TR19®, and an audit report gives you that, along with any actions needed.
Do we have to follow TR19 by law?
No. TR19® is a specification, not a statute. In practice, an insurer can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of TR19 cleaning, so following it is the sensible course.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
