How we handle TR19 inspection in Pyrford

A pre-clean survey looks at the whole system, from canopy to discharge. We check where the access panels are and whether every section can be reached, and record grease readings at set points. We are often asked to deal with systems that need surveying before cleaning and parts of the system left out of past cleans, on deposit thickness tests, post-clean checks and pre-clean surveys.

In a smaller place like Pyrford, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Between visits

So the system stays in good health:

  • Flag oily drips near the extract
  • Keep to the recommended interval
  • Mention new equipment or longer hours at the next test
  • Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly

If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can arrange it.

Keep all TR19 records together so you can produce them quickly.

What TR19 inspection cannot fix

We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:

  • Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
  • Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
  • Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit

Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Parts of the system we cover

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

How it works

We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. We plan the journey to Pyrford and bring what the job is likely to need.

  1. We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
  2. We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
  3. Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
  4. Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
  5. We send a report setting out the readings, pictures and next steps.

How to prepare

  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site
  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

Advice

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection

Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:

  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • The scale of the work
  • The condition of the system
  • Any permits to work or inductions

One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Kitchen extracts in Pyrford

The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 6 pubs and bars in and around Pyrford, up to about a mile and a half out. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. It’s Woking council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Pyrford. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Pyrford is covered by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Pyrford (Byfleet Manor is about 2.2 miles east), fitting access panels needs care. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of the Good Shepherd or elsewhere in Pyrford, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Pyrford is Woking Community Hospital, about 2 miles south-west.

Pyrford is about 3 miles east of Woking, in Surrey. We carry out TR19 inspection for commercial premises of every kind in Pyrford and the rest of Surrey. We cover 395 places across Surrey, from busy centres to quieter spots. You can also see our page for Guildford, roughly 6 miles from Pyrford.

Our technicians cover all of GU22 and KT14 for TR19 inspection and the streets around it.

Larger places within reach include Guildford (6 miles south-west), Woking (3 miles west), Camberley (9 miles west), Epsom (11 miles east), Farnham (15 miles south-west) and Ewell (11 miles east).

What happens if it’s left?

A pre-clean survey avoids surprises on the night. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, so the clean covers the whole system. Booking ahead lets us plan the trip to Pyrford at a time that suits you.

We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

Pyrford: your questions answered

Who is the fire and rescue service for Pyrford?

It’s Surrey Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Pyrford. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Pyrford?

Kitchens in Pyrford are inspected by Woking 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.

What do the grease readings need to be?

Under TR19® Grease, the mean thickness should not exceed 200 microns between cleans. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we will survey first.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.

Do you cover Pyrford?

Yes. We work in Pyrford and across Surrey, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?

Enough to be sure grease stays within the TR19® Grease figures between cleans. If readings rise, the interval should shorten.

What the work involves, part by part

Schools, hospitals and care homes

Hospital and care home kitchens can cook all day, every day. Testing shows if the cleaning interval keeps pace.

Extract fan and discharge

The discharge at the end of the system is checked as well, as grease can build up there too.
