TR19 inspection in Funtley, done properly

Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. Some kitchens build up grease faster than the minimum intervals assume, which is why measurement matters. We give your risk assessment measured figures rather than guesses. The work covers pre-clean surveys, post-clean checks and wet film thickness tests, and people most often call us about heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts and cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen.

Somewhere as small as Funtley, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection

We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:

  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What we need to know

When you contact us, these details help:

  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. 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.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Funtley

From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

Keeping the system healthy

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:

  • Report grease dripping from the canopy
  • Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
  • Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
  • Keep to the recommended interval

The audit report is set out to pass straight to your insurer or broker, with readings, photos and any areas not accessible.

When cooking hours or the menu change, check the interval still fits. Fresh readings show whether it needs to change.

Part by part

Restaurants, pubs and hotels

Inspections are done when the kitchen is closed or quiet so trading isn’t affected.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

Inspections are planned around mealtimes and holidays to avoid disruption.

What TR19 inspection looks like in Funtley

At about 3 miles from the coast, Funtley is close enough for sea air to matter. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. There are about 17 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 12 takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Funtley, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. The fire and rescue service for Funtley is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.

Term dates shape school work: for a school like Orchard Lea Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Francis or elsewhere in Funtley, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Knowle Hospital is the nearest hospital to Funtley, about 0.7 miles north.

Funtley is about 1 mile north of Fareham, in Hampshire. Sites in Funtley get the same service as everywhere we cover: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where necessary and a written report with pictures.

Leave it or put it right?

Without readings, you are guessing when to clean. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, and you can only act on that if you’ve measured it. If the system at a site near Funtley fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.

Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Funtley questions

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Funtley?

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Funtley. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.

Can you get to a site in Funtley?

Yes. Funtley is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

What should I send you?

Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

Is TR19 a legal requirement?

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.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. We always survey first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.

Can you quote from pictures?

In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.

What happens on the day

We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Somewhere like Funtley, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.

  1. We go through any past certificates and reports.
  2. The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
  3. We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
  4. We measure the grease and photograph each point.
  5. You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.

How to prepare

  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Let us know about parking and loading

Ask for a quote

For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an 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.
