About our TR19 inspection in Horsell
Insurance policies often require evidence of TR19® cleaning and inspection. Without it, a claim can be refused or reduced. Our TR19 audits give sites in Horsell and across Surrey a clear record of the system’s condition. If you’re dealing with an insurer’s request for a TR19 audit and ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits, we can put it right, from deposit thickness tests, insurer audits and pre-clean surveys onwards.
Around a smaller place like Horsell, 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 the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
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. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What staff can safely do
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.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Different parts, different methods
Horizontal duct runs
Sections without access are recorded so it can be fixed before the clean.
Extract fan and discharge
The extract fan and its housing collect grease too. We check and test them as part of the inspection.
Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Horsell
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- The size of the system
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- How many systems or sites are involved
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The site address and the type of premises
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Here’s what helps 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. Then call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Horsell questions
Who is the fire and rescue service for Horsell?
Surrey Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Horsell. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Do you cover smaller places like Horsell?
Yes, Horsell is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
What happens on a pre-clean survey?
It’s a look at the whole extract before it’s cleaned, with readings and photos. The survey can be done from pictures and details or on site, whichever suits the system.
When should we have our next grease test?
We suggest a next test date in every report, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used. The interval should come from a competent person’s risk assessment backed by grease measurement.
What should I send you?
Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection, and our audit gives a clear record of the system’s condition, with recommendations where something needs doing.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.

Finding a hotspot early means a targeted spot clean rather than a bigger problem later. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. A site near Horsell that has to close at short notice is hard to cover for.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Visits to a place like Horsell are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- 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.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Move anything stored near the system
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.

TR19 inspection around Horsell
Food Standards Agency records include about 11 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 3 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within about 1.5 miles of central Horsell. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers Horsell. 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. Environmental health officers from Woking council inspect food businesses in Horsell. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Woking Community Hospital about 1 mile south, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. If you run a café or takeaway near Woking station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere in Horsell, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
