TR19 inspection in Parkhurst
Taking on a kitchen in Parkhurst 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 pre-clean surveys, post-clean checks and deposit thickness tests, and people most often call us about extracts that have never been grease tested and uncertainty over how often to clean.
For a kitchen in or near Parkhurst, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
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, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
FAQs for Parkhurst
Do you work at weekends in Parkhurst?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Parkhurst needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Can a school canteen extract in Parkhurst be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 17 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Parkhurst. You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.
Do you check other contractors’ cleans?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, whoever did the clean.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and a few photos, with the address and opening hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
What do the grease readings need to be?
TR19® Grease says the mean shouldn’t exceed 200 microns between cleans, and anywhere at 500 microns or more needs spot cleaning straight away.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
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, before anyone starts cleaning. Missing access panels are noted ahead of the clean.
What types of premises do you cover?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Different parts, different methods
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
A kitchen running from breakfast to late service builds grease quickly. Readings show if the cleans are frequent enough.
Extract fan and discharge
We look at where the extract discharges outside, since grease reaches the very end of the system.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Parkhurst and across the Isle of Wight. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- A faulty or failing extract fan
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- Design faults in the extract system
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- Deposit thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Wet film thickness tests
- Insurer audits
- Access surveys
- Post-clean checks
Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
- Diary the next grease test and clean
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
You get a report with the grease readings, where they were taken and photos of each point. File it alongside your TR19 certificates.
When cooking hours or the menu change, check the interval still fits. A quick grease test answers the question.
Why deal with it now?
If a kitchen in Parkhurst has been cleaned on the same calendar for years, there’s no way to know if that interval is right without measuring. Testing gives you the evidence to set it properly. A planned visit to Parkhurst is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

TR19 inspection around Parkhurst
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 53 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 18 sandwich bars and takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Parkhurst. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. Food hygiene inspections in Parkhurst are the job of Isle of Wight council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Parkhurst 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.
School kitchens, at schools like Hunnyhill Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. A hospital like St Mary's Hospital, about under half a mile south, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Historic houses near Parkhurst, such as Carisbrooke Castle about 2.1 miles south, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Parkhurst, let us know and we will plan around it.
- First we book a time that will not disrupt cooking.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
- We send a report setting out the readings, photos and next steps.
How to prepare
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Move anything stored near the system
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
