Managing agents and facilities teams in Martyr Worthy
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
About our TR19 inspection in Martyr Worthy
BESA sets minimum cleaning intervals by daily use: heavy use (12 to 16 hours a day) every 3 months, moderate use (6 to 12 hours) every 6 months and light use (2 to 6 hours) every 12 months. Grease testing shows whether your kitchen needs cleaning more often than that. Typical jobs include sections of duct that can’t be reached and confirming a clean reached the whole system, across post-clean checks, wet film thickness tests and deposit thickness tests.
Work in a small place like Martyr Worthy starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Martyr Worthy?
Grease is fuel. Flames from the range can be pulled into the canopy and travel through the ducts to other parts of the building. Measuring it is the first step to keeping it under control.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Itchen Abbas Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Why act early in Martyr Worthy
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. If grease reaches 500 microns anywhere, TR19® Grease calls for immediate spot cleaning, and you can only act on that if you’ve measured it. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.

FAQs for Martyr Worthy
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Martyr Worthy?
Fire safety enforcement in Martyr Worthy is handled by 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 Martyr Worthy within the area you cover?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Martyr Worthy included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What is a WFTT or DTT grease test?
WFTT and DTT are the two methods for measuring grease thickness, in microns. Readings are taken at set points through the system.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
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.
What grease levels does TR19 allow?
TR19® Grease says the mean shouldn’t exceed 200 microns between cleans, and anywhere at 500 microns or more needs spot cleaning right away.
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, which we can install.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.
How the job changes from site to site
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Kitchens that cook for long hours build up grease faster. Readings show if the cleans are frequent enough.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Hospital and care home kitchens can cook all day, every day. Testing shows if the cleaning interval keeps pace.
How we price TR19 inspection
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- How big the system is
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
