What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Lower Eashing
TR19® Grease says grease should not exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, while a reading of 500 microns or more anywhere calls for immediate spot cleaning. Testing is how you know where your system stands. We are often asked to deal with insurers asking for TR19 evidence and post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean, on wet film thickness tests, pre-clean surveys and access surveys.
Somewhere as small as Lower Eashing, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. 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.

Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by TR19 inspection, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Installation problems, which fall under design guidance such as DW172
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think.

What affects the quote in Lower Eashing
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.
Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
Keep the verification report next to the certificate it relates to. The pair gives a clear record of the clean and the check.
Revisit the cleaning interval whenever the menu or hours change. A quick grease test answers the question.
How the visit works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Lower Eashing.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

TR19 inspection around Lower Eashing
Food Standards Agency data counts about 5 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in and around Lower Eashing, up to about a mile and a half out. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. Lower Eashing sits within the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Food hygiene inspections in Lower Eashing are the job of Guildford council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like St Mary's CofE Voluntary Controlled Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Historic houses near Lower Eashing, such as Loseley Park about 2.7 miles north-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Where a hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Lower Eashing, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
