How we price TR19 inspection

- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The times the site is available
- How big the system is
- The number of sites or systems
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

How we handle TR19 inspection in Hurtmore
If you’ve taken over a kitchen in Hurtmore and don’t know when the extract was last cleaned, an inspection is the place to start. You get readings, photos and a clear view of what’s needed, before any cleaning is booked. Typical jobs include missing TR19 certificates or history and insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning, on insurer audits, pre-clean surveys and deposit thickness tests.
In a small place like Hurtmore, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep the route to access panels clear
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
- Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
- Book the next test on the date in the report
The audit report is set out to pass straight to your insurer or broker, including readings, photos and any inaccessible sections.
When cooking hours or the menu change, check the interval still fits. Fresh readings show whether it needs to change.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Hurtmore and across Surrey. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Questions from Hurtmore
Which council inspects kitchens in Hurtmore?
Kitchens in Hurtmore are inspected by Guildford council’s environmental health officers. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Hurtmore?
Hurtmore is in the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Every site has its own report.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Is Hurtmore in your area?
Yes. We work in Hurtmore and across Surrey, within our South East and London area. To book, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

How the visit works
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Visits to a village like Hurtmore are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Hurtmore
A check after cleaning shows whether the work reached every part it should have, before the next clean is due. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What you get with us
- A fixed price before any work starts
- In business since 2009
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What TR19 inspection looks like in Hurtmore
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 15 pubs and bars within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Hurtmore. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Kitchens in Hurtmore get their food hygiene inspections from Guildford council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Hurtmore is covered by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
A hospital like Milford Hospital, about 2.4 miles south, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Nicholas, or anywhere in Hurtmore, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

For rail, the closest station is Godalming station, roughly 1.2 miles south-east of the centre.

When to call us in Hurtmore
Looking at a canopy tells you little about what’s in the duct. Clean filters can hide a heavy layer behind them, which is why readings matter.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Loseley Park is about 1.5 miles north-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
