TR19 inspection in North Camp

About our TR19 inspection in North Camp

After a clean, post-clean verification checks the result, with new readings and pictures of the cleaned areas. It gives you evidence of how the system was actually left. Typical jobs include cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen and missing TR19 certificates or history, across insurer audits, post-clean checks and pre-clean surveys.

Kitchens around a place like North Camp are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.

Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

What TR19 inspection cannot fix

Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
  • Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
  • Hidden runs that need access panels first

If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Deposit thickness tests
  • Access surveys
  • Wet film thickness tests
  • Post-clean checks
  • Insurer audits
  • Pre-clean surveys

What your team can do, and what needs us

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Managing agents and facilities teams in North Camp

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 can quote for the whole system.

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Part by part

Vertical risers

Risers carry the extract up through the building. Grease can drain down and pool at the bottom, so we check there.

Horizontal duct runs

If a run has no access panel, we note it so panels can be added.

How we price TR19 inspection

Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • What state the system is in
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • How big the system is

Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.

What to send for a quote

When you call or email, it’s useful to have:

  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Any previous report or certificate

Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

What happens if it’s left?

A pre-clean survey avoids surprises on the night. Access problems are spotted in advance rather than on the night, and the quote reflects the real job. A site near North Camp that has to close at short notice is hard to cover for.

What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

What happens on the day

Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like North Camp, so let us know how to reach it.

  1. First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
  2. We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
  3. We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
  4. Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
  5. You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site
  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Get a fixed quote

We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Advice

Questions from North Camp

Can you clean school kitchen extracts in North Camp during the holidays?

Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 22 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of North Camp. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.

Which fire and rescue service is responsible for North Camp?

That is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.

What is post-clean verification?

Post-clean verification is a check after a clean, with fresh grease readings and pictures. It can follow our own cleans or another contractor’s.

What should I send you?

Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few photos and any previous report.

Do you work in North Camp?

Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, North Camp included.

What about areas you can’t get to?

They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.

What happens on a pre-clean survey?

We check the layout, the grease levels and the access, before anyone starts cleaning. Missing access panels are noted so they can be sorted first.

Which accreditations do you hold?

Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Grease, kitchens and North Camp

The FSA’s data shows about 20 pubs and bars and about 7 hotels and guest houses registered across North Camp and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. North Camp sits within the area of 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. Environmental health officers from Rushmoor council inspect food businesses in North Camp. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.

If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Mark or elsewhere in North Camp, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. If you run a café or takeaway near North Camp station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits. Term dates shape school work: for a school like St Mark's Church of England Aided Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
