TR19 inspection in Margery
A grease test measures how thick the grease is inside a kitchen extract system. We use the Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or the Deposit Thickness Test (DTT), taking readings at set points. From the numbers, you can see whether cleaning is due. If you are dealing with sections of duct that can’t be reached and ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits, we can help.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

How we price TR19 inspection
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The number of sites or systems
- How easy every part is to reach
- The times the site is available
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- A few general shots of the system
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Kitchen extracts in Margery
Look up Margery on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 47 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 13 takeaways in Margery and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. Environmental health officers from Reigate and Banstead council inspect food businesses in Margery. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. The fire and rescue service for Margery is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. 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.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Kingswood Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of Jesus Christ and the Wisdom of God or elsewhere in Margery, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Margery is East Surrey Hospital, about 3.4 miles south-east.

Why deal with it now?
Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. Somewhere as small as Margery, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.

At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. Visits to a village like Margery are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- 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.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.

Advice
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 come back with a fixed quote.

What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
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.
FAQs for Margery
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Margery in the summer holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Around Margery, the Food Standards Agency lists about 5 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Who inspects food businesses in Margery?
In Margery, it’s Reigate and Banstead council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Which accreditations do you hold?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
What does a pre-clean survey involve?
We survey, measure and photograph the system first. We can work from pictures and details, or visit, whichever suits the system.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we typically come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What a clean won’t put right
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- Hidden runs that need access panels first
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before booking.
