Greater London · TR19 inspections and grease testing
Grahame Park TR19 inspection
TR19 inspection across Grahame Park and nearby, booked around your opening hours and finished with a written report and pictures.
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Book the next test on the date in the report
After post-clean verification, file the results with the cleaning certificate. The pair gives a clear record of the clean and the check.
Revisit the cleaning interval whenever the menu or hours change. A quick grease test answers the question.
TR19 inspection in Grahame Park
Taking on a kitchen in Grahame Park with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. You get readings, photos and a clear view of what’s needed, before any cleaning is booked. The work covers access surveys, wet film thickness tests and deposit thickness tests, and common reasons people get in touch are insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean.
London kitchens are often tucked into basements or the back of a building, and the duct may run up through several floors before it discharges at the roof. For a kitchen in Grahame Park, that usually means a longer system to clean and more access panels to plan around.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Grahame Park?
Grease is fuel. A flare-up on the range can be drawn into the canopy and duct, and from there a fire can spread through the ductwork. Knowing how much there is lets you act before it becomes a hazard.
What we are most often called out for:
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
A kitchen near Mill Hill Broadway station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

What TR19 inspection looks like in Grahame Park
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 183 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 108 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Grahame Park, up to about a mile and a half out. Each kitchen extract among them can be measured for grease to set the right cleaning interval. London Fire Brigade covers Grahame Park. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. In London, kitchens are normally cleaned overnight, when the kitchen is closed and loading is easier.
For schools such as St James' Catholic High School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Edgware Community Hospital (about 1.3 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Other services in Grahame Park
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Night and weekend working is normal for us in London, and a site in Grahame Park is no exception.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Grahame Park needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.

No, not in itself. But the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and grease in the extract is part of that. Many insurers also expect TR19 cleaning.
