TR19 inspection in Newney Green
Taking on a kitchen in Newney Green with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. We survey the system, measure the grease and tell you what needs doing, so the next step is based on facts. If you’re dealing with extracts that have never been grease tested and systems that need surveying before cleaning, we can put it right, from deposit thickness tests, access surveys and insurer audits onwards.
In a small place like Newney Green, 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.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

TR19 inspection in Newney Green: the local picture
Food Standards Agency data counts about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Newney Green. Where they cook under a canopy, a grease reading is the way to tell whether the extract is due a clean. Kitchens in Newney Green get their food hygiene inspections from Chelmsford council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Fire safety in Newney Green falls to Essex County 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.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Michael and All Angels or elsewhere in Newney Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. School kitchens, at schools like Hylands School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Other services in Newney Green
Multi-site and managed buildings
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Flag oily drips near the extract
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Book the next test on the date in the report
After post-clean verification, file the results with the cleaning certificate. Together they show the system was cleaned and checked.
Close the access gaps found during inspection, so grease isn’t left building in hidden parts.
Leave it or put it right?
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, and you can only act on that if you’ve measured it. In a small place like Newney Green, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.

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. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
What happens on the day
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Somewhere like Newney Green, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Getting a quote
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Questions from Newney Green
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Newney Green in the summer holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 3 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Newney Green. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Newney Green?
Newney Green is in the area of Essex County 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 verify a clean after it’s been done?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, whoever did the clean.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Can you inspect our extract for our insurance company?
Yes. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection, and an audit report gives you that, along with any actions needed.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Do you cover Newney Green?
Yes. Our technicians work in Newney Green, as part of our area across London and the South East.
Different parts, different methods
Extract fan and discharge
The discharge at the end of the system is checked as well, as grease can build up there too.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Inspections are planned around mealtimes and holidays to avoid disruption.
What we are called out for in Newney Green
Not every section of a kitchen extract is easy to get to, so those sections can be skipped time and again. A survey finds the sections that cannot be reached, so the gaps can be closed.
Clients usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Hylands is about 2.7 miles south-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
Questions to ask before you book
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- Whether VAT is included
