Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
TR19 inspection in Godshill, done properly
If you’ve taken over a kitchen in Godshill and do not know when the extract was last cleaned, an inspection is the place to start. You get readings, pictures and a clear view of what’s needed, so the next step is based on facts. If you have missing TR19 certificates or history and insurers asking for TR19 evidence, we can help, from insurer audits, wet film thickness tests and pre-clean surveys onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Godshill, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
- Mention new equipment or longer hours at the next test
- Keep to the recommended interval
The audit report is set out to pass straight to your insurer or broker, including readings, photos and any inaccessible sections.
Regular grease readings keep the cleaning interval honest. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Godshill?
As hot, greasy air travels up the duct, it cools and leaves a film behind. The thickest layers can sit out of sight in the plenum, at bends and along flat runs.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Missing access panels found on survey
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Godshill Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What affects the quote in Godshill
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- The size of the system
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The condition of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
The process
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 around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. For a village or hamlet like Godshill, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
Before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

What happens if it’s left?
Surveying first means the clean goes to plan. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, so the clean covers the whole system. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.

Common questions in Godshill
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Godshill?

Can you come to Godshill after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.

WFTT and DTT are the two methods for measuring grease thickness, in microns. We take readings at set points from canopy to fan.

Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us about the site and its opening hours.

For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.

Typically, the inspection takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. The size of the system and the access make the difference.

TR19 inspection around Godshill
There are about 5 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Godshill, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. Godshill is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Kitchens in Godshill get their food hygiene inspections from Isle of Wight council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near All Saints' Church or elsewhere in Godshill, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Sheat Manor is about 2.5 miles north-west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
