TR19 inspection in Ningwood, done properly
Taking on a kitchen in Ningwood with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. We survey the system, measure the grease and tell you what needs doing, before any cleaning is booked. The work covers deposit thickness tests, insurer audits and wet film thickness tests, and the jobs we see most are kitchens whose menu or hours have changed and ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits.
In a small place like Ningwood, 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.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Ningwood
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Ningwood and across the Isle of Wight. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
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.
What the work involves, part by part
Horizontal duct runs
Bends and long runs can hold heavy deposits, out of sight of the kitchen.
Vertical risers
Risers carry the extract up through the building. Grease can drain down and pool at the bottom, so the base is a key test point.
Ningwood kitchens: local notes
Ningwood lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. Fire safety in Ningwood falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. It’s Isle of Wight council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Ningwood. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
School kitchens, at schools like Shalfleet Church of England Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St. Michael the Archangel or elsewhere in Ningwood, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

FAQs for Ningwood
Can you get to a site in Ningwood?
Yes. Ningwood is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Ningwood in the summer holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 2 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Ningwood. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your term dates and we will plan around them.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
What do the grease readings need to be?
Two figures matter: a mean of no more than 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns at any single point, which needs immediate spot cleaning. Our report sets your readings against both.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection, and an audit report gives you that, along with any actions needed.
What happens on a pre-clean survey?
A survey finds out how the system is laid out, how dirty it is and what can be reached, so the clean goes to plan. Any access problems are flagged ahead of the clean.
Can the work be done while we’re closed?
Yes. Much of our work happens in the evening, overnight or at weekends, so you do not have to close during trading.

Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep to the recommended interval
- Mention new equipment or longer hours at the next test
- Never cook with filters missing
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
Regular grease readings keep the cleaning interval honest. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.
What we are called out for in Ningwood
Looking at a canopy tells you little about what’s in the duct. Clean filters can hide a heavy layer behind them, which is why readings matter.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like St Mary's Hospital about 5.9 miles east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
What your quote should include
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- What hours they’ll be on site
What your team can do, and what needs us
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.
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 can diagnose it and quote.
What we do, step by step
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Somewhere as small as Ningwood, 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.
- Grease readings are taken again at set points.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
Getting ready for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.
Advice
What affects the quote in Ningwood
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The condition we find in the survey
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Whatever the type of site, the quote works 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 will explain each part.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The site address and the type of premises
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: 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.
