How we price TR19 inspection

The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • The size of the system
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Where the site is and how we reach it

You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll explain what it covers.

What to send for a quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Rew Street

Under TR19® Grease, the mean grease thickness should stay at or below 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 are on. We’re often asked to deal with missing access panels found on survey and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean, across wet film thickness tests, insurer audits and post-clean checks.

In a small place like Rew Street, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.

The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

TR19 inspection around Rew Street

At about 2 miles from the coast, Rew Street is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. There are about 7 restaurants, cafés and canteens across Rew Street and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half), according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Each kitchen extract among them can be measured for grease to set the right cleaning interval. Kitchens in Rew Street get their food hygiene inspections from Isle of Wight council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.

Historic houses near Rew Street, such as Osborne House about 2.8 miles east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Northwood Primary School or anywhere near Rew Street, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near All Saints' Church or elsewhere in Rew Street, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Rew Street is about 1 mile south-west of Cowes, in the Isle of Wight. From the centre of Rew Street to the outskirts, TR19 inspection is available to all kinds of commercial premises, from a single unit to a large public building. Across the Isle of Wight, we cover 125 places, Rew Street among them. There’s also a page for Southampton, roughly 12 miles from Rew Street.

Keeping the system healthy

A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:

  • Keep the route to access panels clear
  • Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
  • Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
  • Keep to the recommended interval

Keep the verification report next to the certificate it relates to. The pair gives a clear record of the clean and the check.

Test grease regularly instead of relying on the calendar. It shows if build-up is speeding up.

What staff can safely do

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

Rew Street questions

Do you cover smaller places like Rew Street?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.

Does coastal air change anything about TR19 inspection in Rew Street?

Yes, to a degree: at about 2 miles from the coast, Rew Street gets salt-laden air that corrodes metal faster. Rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings are checked for corrosion as well as grease.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that cannot wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.

What does TR19 inspection cost?

The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, where the photos show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?

Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.

What do the grease readings need to be?

Between cleans, the mean should stay at 200 microns or below, with 500 microns or more anywhere needing immediate spot cleaning.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Rew Street

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across the Isle of Wight. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.

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.

Vertical risers

Access to risers is often limited. We record what can and can’t be reached.

Why act early in Rew Street

Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. In a place like Rew Street, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.

Why us?

  • A fixed price before any work starts
  • One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
  • We diagnose before we treat
  • Every visit written up, with photos

See our cost guide or our accreditations and certificates.

What happens on the day

We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Rew Street.

  1. Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
  2. The same access points are opened up.
  3. We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
  4. Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
  5. The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.

Preparing for the visit

  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Tell us where we can park and unload
