TR19 inspection in Peasmarsh
TR19® Grease says grease should not exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. Grease testing shows which side of those lines you’re on. Common call-outs are for missing TR19 certificates or history and extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean, on access surveys, insurer audits and pre-clean surveys.
For a kitchen in or near Peasmarsh, 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.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Peasmarsh knowing what to expect.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the system
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Signs you need TR19 inspection in Peasmarsh
Menus, opening hours and cooking styles change over time, and more frying or longer hours mean more grease. The old cleaning schedule may not match the kitchen any more.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
Where a hall near The Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul, or anywhere in Peasmarsh, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Why act early in Peasmarsh
A check after cleaning shows whether the work reached every part it should have, while there’s still time to put anything right. In a place like Peasmarsh, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.

Peasmarsh: your questions answered
Can you come to Peasmarsh after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Peasmarsh?
It’s East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Peasmarsh. 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.
What does a pre-clean survey involve?
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.
Do you work in Peasmarsh?
Yes. We cover Peasmarsh and across East Sussex, as part of our work across South East England and London. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
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.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
It depends on how heavily the kitchen cooks. BESA sets minimum cleaning intervals of 3, 6 or 12 months by daily use, and testing shows if your kitchen needs more.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. With panels fitted, the next clean can cover every section.
Keep all TR19 records together so the history is easy to show.
When something else is needed
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what TR19 inspection won’t do:
- A faulty or failing extract fan
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers

How we price TR19 inspection
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- How big the system is
- The times the site is available
- How easy every part is to reach
- Travel, parking and unloading
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.

You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The postcode and the type of business
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
