How we price TR19 inspection
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The condition of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we will explain what it covers.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.
TR19 inspection in Lyminster
A fixed schedule does not always match how a kitchen really cooks. Some kitchens build up grease faster than the minimum intervals assume, and only measurement shows it. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. Typical jobs include confirming a clean reached the whole system and missing TR19 certificates or history, on insurer audits, deposit thickness tests and wet film thickness tests.
For a kitchen in or near Lyminster, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Leave it or put it right?
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, and you can only act on that if you’ve measured it. If the system at a site near Lyminster fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Lyminster?
Kitchens change: a new menu, longer hours or more frying can all add grease. The old cleaning schedule may not match the kitchen any more.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
Historic houses near Lyminster, such as Ecclesden Manor about 3.3 miles east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

The process
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. In a small place like Lyminster, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- The same access points are opened up.
- Grease readings are taken again at set points.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.

Advice
Your questions about TR19 inspection in Lyminster
Do you work in villages like Lyminster?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Lyminster is covered. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Does the sea air around Lyminster make a difference to TR19 inspection?
Yes, to a degree: at about 2 miles from the coast, Lyminster gets salt-laden air that corrodes metal faster. Rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings are checked for corrosion as well as grease.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
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. We do not leave it behind.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
It depends on how heavily the kitchen cooks. BESA’s minimum cleaning intervals are every 3, 6 or 12 months for heavy, moderate and light use, and grease readings help set the real interval.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.
Can the work be done while we’re closed?
Yes, and that is how we prefer to work. The visit is timed for when the area is not in use, whether that is late evening, overnight or a weekend.
What information do you need?
A short description and a few pictures, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
What a clean won’t put right
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Hidden runs that need access panels first
- Mechanical faults in the extract
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Pre-clean surveys
- Access surveys

TR19 inspection around Lyminster
At about 2 miles from the coast, Lyminster is close enough for sea air to matter. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. The FSA’s data shows about 23 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 12 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses registered within about 1.5 miles of central Lyminster. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Environmental health officers from Arun council inspect food businesses in Lyminster. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
A hospital like Arundel and District Hospital, about 1.9 miles north-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Church and community hall kitchens, near The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalen or anywhere around Lyminster, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
