TR19 inspection in Netley Marsh
Grease thickness testing tells you how much grease is sitting in the canopy, ducts and fan. We use the Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or the Deposit Thickness Test (DTT), taking readings at set points. The results show whether the system needs cleaning and how soon. The work covers pre-clean surveys, wet film thickness tests and post-clean checks, and common reasons people get in touch are post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean and insurers asking for TR19 evidence.
Somewhere as small as Netley Marsh, 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.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Somewhere as small as Netley Marsh, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- The same access points are opened up.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
How to prepare
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Keep the route to access panels clear
- Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans
Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. With panels fitted, the next clean can cover every section.
When cooking hours or the menu change, check the interval still fits. Fresh readings show whether it needs to change.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- A faulty or failing extract fan
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Grease, kitchens and Netley Marsh
Netley Marsh is within about 3 miles of the coast. 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 10 bars, pubs and nightclubs registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Netley Marsh. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Food hygiene inspections in Netley Marsh are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Matthew or elsewhere in Netley Marsh, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Netley Marsh Church of England Infant School or anywhere near Netley Marsh, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. A hospital like Tatchbury Mount Hospital, about 1.1 miles north, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Common questions in Netley Marsh
Who inspects food businesses in Netley Marsh?
The local authority for Netley Marsh is New Forest council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Does being near the coast affect TR19 inspection in Netley Marsh?
Yes, to a degree: at about 3 miles from the coast, Netley Marsh gets salt-laden air that corrodes metal faster. Rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings are checked for corrosion as well as grease.
Can the work be done while we are closed?
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.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
What do the grease readings need to be?
Between cleans, the mean should stay at 200 microns or below, with 500 microns or more anywhere needing immediate spot cleaning.
What does a pre-clean survey involve?
We look at the system from canopy to discharge, take grease readings and check access. It lets us plan the clean and send you a fixed quote.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
Often enough to know the mean stays under 200 microns between cleans. If readings rise, the interval should shorten.
What else we do in Netley Marsh
How the job changes from site to site
Horizontal duct runs
If a run has no access panel, we note it so panels can be added.
Vertical risers
Risers carry the extract up through the building. Grease can run down and collect at the base, so the base is a key test point.
