TR19 inspection in Pyrford Green
Insurance policies often require evidence of TR19® cleaning and inspection. Missing records can lead to a claim being reduced or refused. A TR19 audit sets out the system’s condition, with readings and pictures, for sites in Pyrford Green and the rest of Surrey. The work covers wet film thickness tests, pre-clean surveys and post-clean checks, and people most often call us about kitchens whose menu or hours have changed and an insurer’s request for a TR19 audit.
For a kitchen in or near Pyrford Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Pyrford Green kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s data shows about 4 pubs, bars and clubs registered across Pyrford Green and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Pyrford Green sits within the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. In Pyrford Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Woking council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
School kitchens, at schools like Pyrford Church of England Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Nicholas's Church or elsewhere in Pyrford Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Why deal with it now?
Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Left alone, grease keeps building between cleans. A fault that closes a site in a village like Pyrford Green affects everyone who depends on it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Pyrford Green questions
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Pyrford Green during the holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Food Standards Agency records list about 5 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Pyrford Green. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we will fit the work in.
Which council inspects kitchens in Pyrford Green?
The local authority for Pyrford Green is Woking council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What grease levels does TR19 allow?
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. We show your readings against those figures.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
We suggest a next test date in every report, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used. A risk assessment based on measured grease should set the interval.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few photos and any previous report.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Any permits to work or inductions
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Your last certificate, test record or report
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans
- Keep to the recommended interval
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
Keep the verification report next to the certificate it relates to. The pair gives a clear record of the clean and the check.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections can’t be reached, so grease is not left building in hidden parts.
How it works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Pyrford Green.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.

What a clean won’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
- Design faults in the extract system
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer.
Parts of the system we cover
- Access surveys
- Pre-clean surveys
- Insurer audits
- Wet film thickness tests
- Deposit thickness tests
- Post-clean checks
Do you need TR19 inspection in Pyrford Green?
TR19® is the benchmark that insurers, fire officers and EHOs refer to. It is not legislation; the legal duty comes from the Fire Safety Order 2005, under which the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and grease in the extract is part of that risk.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
- Missing access panels found on survey
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Byfleet Manor is about 1.7 miles north-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
