Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Hascombe
After a clean, post-clean verification checks the result, with fresh grease readings, photos and a look at the areas that were cleaned. It shows whether the system was left in the condition the paperwork describes. If you’re dealing with parts of the system left out of past cleans and checking the result of a recent clean, we can help, from post-clean checks, insurer audits and access surveys onwards.
In a small place like Hascombe, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Common questions in Hascombe
Can you get to a site in Hascombe?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Hascombe?
That’s Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
What happens on a pre-clean survey?
The survey covers the whole system, grease readings and access to each section. From it, we plan the clean and quote a fixed price.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
What we are called out for in Hascombe
Grease builds up as cooking vapour cools inside the extract. The thickest layers can sit out of sight in the plenum, at bends and along flat runs.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Milford Hospital about 2.6 miles north-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

What staff can safely do
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Honest limits
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- The legal duty, which stays with the responsible person
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.
Where we work

How it works
There’s very little for your team to do 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. The timing of a visit to Hascombe is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First we book a time that won’t disrupt cooking.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
- You get a report with readings, photos and recommendations.
How to prepare
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Get a fixed quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

How the job changes from site to site
Canopy and plenum
The plenum behind the filters can carry a lot of grease. We take readings there and photograph it as part of every survey.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Kitchens that cook for long hours build up grease faster. Regular testing shows whether the cleaning interval keeps up.

Keeping the system healthy

You get a report with the grease readings, where they were taken and pictures of each point. Keep it with your fire safety and TR19 records.
Test grease regularly instead of relying on the calendar. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.
