Between visits
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change

- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
After the inspection, we send a report showing each reading, its location and pictures. File it alongside your TR19 certificates.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so the history is easy to show.
About our TR19 inspection in Morestead
Many insurers ask for proof that kitchen extract systems are cleaned and inspected to TR19®. Without it, a claim can be refused or reduced. A TR19 audit sets out the system’s condition, with readings and pictures, for sites in Morestead and the rest of Hampshire. If you have post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean and sections of duct that can’t be reached, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Morestead, 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.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
When to call us in Morestead
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 in a kitchen that means keeping grease under control.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
Where a hall near Morestead Church, or anywhere in Morestead, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
What your quote should include
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- If they look at the system before pricing
- Whether the quote shows VAT

Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Morestead
You will get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The size of the system
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Any permits to work or inductions
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
What happens if it’s left?
An EHO visit, an insurance renewal or a fire risk assessment is a bad time to find your extract records are thin. An inspection now gives a site in Morestead a current picture. It’s simpler to plan the work at Morestead now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

Advice
What a clean won’t put right
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- Hidden runs that need access panels first
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system

Your questions about TR19 inspection in Morestead
Can the work in Morestead be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Morestead needn’t be disturbed. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you cover smaller places like Morestead?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Morestead included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
What does a pre-clean survey involve?
We check the layout, the grease levels and the access, before anyone starts cleaning. Missing access panels are noted ahead of the clean.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
How do you measure grease in a kitchen extract?
Grease thickness testing measures the layer of grease on the duct surfaces, by WFTT or DTT. Each reading is recorded in microns.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
Which accreditations do you hold?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.
What is post-clean verification?
A post-clean check records grease readings and photos after the work, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
