About our TR19 inspection in Haslar
A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. Readings, photos and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the clean can be planned properly. If you are dealing with sites with gaps in their extract records and confirming a clean reached the whole system, we can put it right, from post-clean checks, insurer audits and deposit thickness tests onwards.
Work in a small place like Haslar starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Haslar questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Haslar?
Food hygiene inspections in Haslar are carried out by Gosport council. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Will you come out to Haslar?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Haslar included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
Post-clean verification is a check after a clean, with fresh grease readings and pictures. It works whoever carried out the clean.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
At what point does grease need cleaning?
Between cleans, the mean should stay at 200 microns or below, and anywhere at 500 microns or more needs spot cleaning right away.
What we’re called out for in Haslar
Not every section of a kitchen extract is easy to get to, so those sections can be skipped time and again. A survey finds the sections that cannot be reached, so panels can be fitted.
Clients normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Haselworth Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Before booking anyone
- Whether VAT is included
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- What insurance they carry
What a clean won’t put right
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
- Installation problems, which fall under design guidance such as DW172
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Parts of the system we cover
- Wet film thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Post-clean checks
- Access surveys
- Insurer audits
- Deposit thickness tests
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Somewhere as small as Haslar, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- Book the next test on the date in the report
If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can quote to do it.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
Grease, kitchens and Haslar
Sea air reaches Haslar, which sits within about 1 mile of the coast. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. The Food Standards Agency lists about 40 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 4 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Haslar. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Haslar is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Gosport War Memorial Hospital (about 1.2 miles north-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Church and community hall kitchens, near St Francis or anywhere around Haslar, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
Haslar is about 2 miles south-east of Gosport, in Hampshire. If you need TR19 inspection in Haslar, it’s easy to get a fixed quote: please call 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Landmarks near Haslar
Around Haslar, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near The Fighting Cocks pub, Bay House School and St Vincent College and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Portsmouth Harbour station, roughly 1.5 miles north-east. Nearby you’ll also find Tricorn Centre (2.3 miles north-east) and Southsea Castle (1.8 miles east). Green spaces nearby include West of the River Alver.
Part by part
Vertical risers
In buildings with several floors, the riser may pass through other tenants’ space, so we arrange access ahead of time.
Horizontal duct runs
Flat duct runs collect grease along their base. Readings are taken along each run through its access panels.
What happens if it’s left?
After an incident, an insurer can ask to see proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection. Without them, a claim can be reduced or refused. Getting an inspection done now starts that paper trail. In a small place like Haslar, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
No two sites are the same, 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.
