TR19 inspection for sites in Send Marsh

TR19 inspection in Send Marsh

Post-clean verification is a check carried out once the cleaning is done, with new readings and photos of the cleaned areas. It shows whether the system was left in the condition the paperwork describes. If you’re dealing with ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits and missing TR19 certificates or history, we can help.

For a kitchen in or near Send Marsh, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

How it works

We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Somewhere as small as Send Marsh, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.

  1. We go through any past certificates and reports.
  2. We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
  3. We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
  4. Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
  5. You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Move anything stored near the system

Ask for a quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Common questions in Send Marsh

Which fire service covers Send Marsh?

Send Marsh is in the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.

Do you work at weekends in Send Marsh?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Send Marsh can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?

It depends on how heavily the kitchen cooks. BESA sets minimum cleaning intervals of 3, 6 or 12 months by daily use, and grease readings help set the real interval.

What is grease thickness testing?

Readings are taken using the Wet Film Thickness Test or the Deposit Thickness Test, then compare them with the TR19® Grease figures.

Which sectors do you work in?

Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.

What should I send you?

Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

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

Anything we cannot 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.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.

Honest limits

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
  • Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
  • Ductwork that was designed or installed badly

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.

When to call us in Send Marsh

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. Knowing how much there is lets you act before it becomes a hazard.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Checking the result of a recent clean
  • Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
  • Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
  • Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen

Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Clandon Park is about 2.7 miles south), access may need planning.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
  • What paperwork you get at the end

Our hiring checklist

What affects the quote in Send Marsh

The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:

  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • The scale of the work

What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Helping us quote

When you call or email, it’s useful to have:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • Problems your staff have spotted

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Kitchen extracts in Send Marsh

Food Standards Agency records list about 10 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 5 sandwich bars and takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Send Marsh. Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. It’s Guildford council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Send Marsh. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers Send Marsh. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Woking Community Hospital (about 2.6 miles north-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. For schools such as Send CofE Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

For landlords and multi-site operators

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

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

Why deal with it now?

Sites in Send Marsh that have never measured grease cannot tell whether their cleaning interval suits the kitchen. Testing gives you the evidence to set it properly. It’s simpler to plan the work at Send Marsh now than to arrange it in a hurry later.

We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Keep a record of what your team does. 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.

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
