About our TR19 inspection in Goose Green
Many insurers ask for proof that kitchen extract systems are cleaned and inspected to TR19®. Without it, a claim can be refused or reduced. A TR19 audit sets out the system’s condition, with readings and photos, for sites in Goose Green and the rest of West Sussex. Typical jobs include checking the result of a recent clean and parts of the system left out of past cleans, across wet film thickness tests, pre-clean surveys and deposit thickness tests.
Somewhere as small as Goose Green, 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, whatever the size of the place.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What happens on the day
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. For a village or hamlet like Goose Green, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
How to prepare
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Ask for a quote
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Goose Green?
When a site in Goose Green changes owner or cleaning contractor, the records do not always follow. Without them, nobody knows how much grease is in the system or when it was last cleaned.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near The Parish Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Goose Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

How the job changes from site to site
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Inspections are planned around mealtimes and holidays so meals are not affected.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Kitchens that cook for long hours build up grease faster. Readings show if the cleans are frequent enough.
Grease, kitchens and Goose Green
Goose Green, about 40 miles from central London, is within our usual area. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. The fire and rescue service for Goose Green is West Sussex 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.
For schools such as Rydon Community College, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Parham House, about 4.5 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses near Goose Green; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

What happens if it’s left?
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. If grease reaches 500 microns anywhere, TR19® Grease calls for immediate spot cleaning, which you won’t know without measuring. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Goose Green: your questions answered
Do you work at weekends in Goose Green?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Goose Green doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you call 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Which fire service covers Goose Green?
That’s West Sussex 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.
What is grease thickness testing?
WFTT and DTT are the two methods for measuring grease thickness, in microns. Readings are taken at set points through the system.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Do you cover Goose Green?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, and that includes Goose Green.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
What is post-clean verification?
A post-clean check records grease readings and photos after the work, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Parking and loading at the site
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The times the site is available
- The size of the system
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Any previous report or certificate
- The postcode and the type of business
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
