Micheldever Station kitchens: local notes

Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Fire safety in Micheldever Station falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

TR19 inspection in Micheldever Station, done properly
BESA sets minimum cleaning intervals by daily use: every 3 months for heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day, every 6 months for moderate use of 6 to 12 hours, and every 12 months for light use of 2 to 6 hours. Grease testing shows whether your kitchen needs cleaning more often than that. If you have insurers asking for TR19 evidence and systems that need surveying before cleaning, we can put it right.
In a small place like Micheldever Station, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- What state the system is in
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Any access panels or hatches you can see

Signs you need TR19 inspection in Micheldever Station
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers look to TR19® as the benchmark. TR19® itself is not law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and grease in the extract is part of that risk.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
Before-and-after pictures and a TR19® certificate come with every clean around Micheldever Station.
What to look for in a quote
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether the price is fixed
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether a survey comes first
What the work involves, part by part
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
We test between services, early in the morning or after close so trading isn’t affected.
Horizontal duct runs
Sections without access are recorded so panels can be added.
What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Micheldever Station questions
Who is the fire and rescue service for Micheldever Station?
Micheldever Station is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Can you get to a site in Micheldever Station?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Micheldever Station is covered. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes, and that is how we prefer to work. We book the visit for when the area is out of use, such as late evening, overnight or a weekend.
How much notice do you need?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What accreditations do you have?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
How long does grease testing take?
Expect it to take a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. The visit is timed so cooking isn’t disrupted.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. The timing of a visit to Micheldever Station is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- 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.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the work
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
Ask for a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
