About our TR19 inspection in Priddy's Hard

After a clean, post-clean verification checks the result, with new readings and pictures of the cleaned areas. It shows whether the system was left in the condition the paperwork describes. If you’re dealing with systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements and missing TR19 certificates or history, we can help, from pre-clean surveys, deposit thickness tests and insurer audits onwards.

In a village or hamlet like Priddy's Hard, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Questions from Priddy's Hard

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Priddy's Hard?

Kitchens in Priddy's Hard are inspected by Gosport council’s environmental health officers. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.

Is Priddy's Hard within the area you cover?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Priddy's Hard is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.

At what point does grease need cleaning?

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.

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.

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

Anything we can’t reach goes 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 the work be done while we are closed?

Yes. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote and we’ll plan the visit around them.

What does a pre-clean survey involve?

The survey covers the whole system, grease readings and access to each section. From it, we plan the clean and quote a fixed price.

Between visits

How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Flag oily drips near the extract
  • Diary the next grease test and clean
  • Keep access panels clear and unpainted
  • Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly

You get a report with the grease readings, where they were taken and photos of each point. File it alongside your TR19 certificates.

Keep all TR19 records together so the history is easy to show.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

Grease, kitchens and Priddy's Hard

Priddy's Hard is within about 1 mile of the coast. Corrosion on the fan housing and cowl is worth a look at every clean, alongside the grease. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 157 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 59 takeaways and sandwich shops within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Priddy's Hard. Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Priddy's Hard. 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.

Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Priddy's Hard, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. A hospital like Gosport War Memorial Hospital, about 1.4 miles south-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

How we price TR19 inspection

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Travel, parking and unloading
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • A single visit or a regular plan

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

What we need to know

Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:

  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site

Need a price for TR19 inspection? Please call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with a few details about the site. We’ll talk you through the work and send you a fixed quote before anything is booked.

Common problems we fix in Priddy's Hard

Grease in a duct is flammable fuel. A flare-up on the range can be drawn into the canopy and duct, and from there a fire can spread through the ductwork. Measuring it is the first step to keeping it under control.

Clients normally contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
  • Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
  • Parts of the system left out of past cleans
  • Extracts that have never been grease tested

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Vincent College or anywhere near Priddy's Hard, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they recommend a next date
  • Whether the figure could change on the day
  • Whether the quote shows VAT
  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach

Questions to ask before booking

How it works

Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the TR19 inspection, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Priddy's Hard, let us know and we will plan around it.

  1. The visit is arranged for when the kitchen is not busy.
  2. We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
  3. We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
  4. Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
  5. The findings go into a report with readings, pictures and a recommended next clean.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
