TR19 inspection in Hart Plain, done properly
A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. Readings, pictures and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. We are often asked to deal with extracts that have never been grease tested and an insurer’s request for a TR19 audit, across insurer audits, post-clean checks and access surveys.
Around a smaller place like Hart Plain, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so cleaning is planned around how much it cooks and what the readings show.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Grease, kitchens and Hart Plain
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 12 pubs, bars and clubs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hart Plain. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Hart Plain is covered by 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. Food hygiene inspections in Hart Plain are the job of Havant council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Historic houses near Hart Plain, such as Warblington Castle about 4.5 miles south-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Havant War Memorial Hospital about 3.5 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. For schools such as Hart Plain Infant School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Different parts, different methods
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
A kitchen running from breakfast to late service builds grease quickly. Regular testing shows whether the cleaning interval keeps up.
Horizontal duct runs
Grease settles on the floor of horizontal ducts as the air cools. Readings are taken along each run through its access panels.
What a clean will not put right
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
- Design faults in the extract system
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers
- Wet film thickness tests
- Deposit thickness tests
- Post-clean checks

Common questions in Hart Plain
Can a school canteen extract in Hart Plain be done out of term time?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 7 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Hart Plain, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Can you work in Hart Plain outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Hart Plain needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
What does TR19 inspection cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote, typically ready within one working day.
What about areas you can’t get to?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- How easy every part is to reach
- The scale of the work
- The number of sites or systems
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Report grease dripping from the canopy
- Keep the route to access panels clear
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
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.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
The process
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Tell us about any gates, ladders or locked plant areas at your site near Hart Plain when you book.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- 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.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote does not 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.
