Common problems we fix in Linwood
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.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
Every clean in and around Linwood is signed off with a certificate and before-and-after pictures.

TR19 inspection in Linwood
Post-clean verification is a check carried out once the cleaning is done, with fresh grease readings, photos and a look at the areas that were cleaned. It gives you evidence of how the system was actually left. If you’re dealing with uncertainty over how often to clean and insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning, we can put it right.
In a small place like Linwood, 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.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- How big the system is
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- What state the system is in
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.

What else we do in Linwood
What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: 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.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
How it works
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Linwood knowing what to expect.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- Grease readings are taken again at set points.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Clear loose items from the work area
Get a fixed quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Linwood questions
Is Linwood within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Linwood is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Linwood?
That’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
What accreditations do you have?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We have been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
What’s TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
The audit report is set out to pass straight to your insurer or broker, with readings, pictures and any areas not accessible.
Keep all TR19 records together so you can produce them quickly.
