How we handle TR19 inspection in Russell's Green
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. Testing is how you know where your system stands. Typical jobs include sites with gaps in their extract records and missing access panels found on survey, across insurer audits, post-clean checks and access surveys.
Work in a small place like Russell's Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The number of sites or systems
- The condition of the system
- How easy every part is to reach
- The size of the system
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’ll price it together.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- 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
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
- Flag oily drips near the extract
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used.
Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Gaps around filters let grease get past them.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Common questions in Russell's Green
Do you work in villages like Russell's Green?
Yes. Russell's Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can sea air affect TR19 inspection in Russell's Green?
It can. Salt air reaches Russell's Green, which is within about 3 miles of the coast, and it speeds up rust. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at every visit.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few photos and any previous report.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
What does TR19 inspection cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.
When it’s something else
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before you book.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Russell's Green
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Leave it or put it right?
Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Left alone, grease keeps building between cleans. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.
