TR19 Inspection in Setley
For TR19 inspection in Setley, one call is all it takes: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, ISO 9001 and fully insured.
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
Looking after it afterwards
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Keep the route to access panels clear
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans
- Report grease dripping from the canopy
If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can quote to do it.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections can’t be reached, so every part of the duct can be cleaned.
About our TR19 inspection in Setley
If you’ve taken over a kitchen in Setley and don’t know when the extract was last cleaned, an inspection is the place to start. We survey the system, measure the grease and tell you what needs doing, before any cleaning is booked. The work covers post-clean checks, access surveys and pre-clean surveys, and common reasons people get in touch are systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements and kitchens whose menu or hours have changed.
For a kitchen in or near Setley, 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 to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Setley?
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers look to TR19® as the benchmark. TR19® itself is not law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and grease in the extract is part of that risk.
Look out for these warning signs:
- Sections of duct that can’t be reached
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
A kitchen near Brockenhurst station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Setley.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
How to prepare
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Getting a quote
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
Advice
When something else is needed
TR19 inspection can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
- The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment
- Mechanical faults in the extract
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think.
What we work on in Setley
- Access surveys
- Insurer audits
- Post-clean checks
- Pre-clean surveys
- Deposit thickness tests
- Wet film thickness tests
Why act early in Setley
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. If grease reaches 500 microns anywhere, TR19® Grease calls for immediate spot cleaning, which you won’t know without measuring. In a small place like Setley, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

FAQs for Setley
Which environmental health team covers Setley?
In Setley, it’s New Forest council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Do you work at weekends in Setley?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Setley does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What about areas you can’t get to?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
How much time does an inspection need?
An inspection takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Large or multiple systems take longer, and you can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email to book it in.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
What is a WFTT or DTT grease test?
The Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) and Deposit Thickness Test (DTT) measure how thick the grease is at a given point. Readings are taken at set points through the system.
Where does the waste go?
We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
What TR19 inspection looks like in Setley
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 7 pubs, bars and clubs and about 6 hotels and guest houses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Setley. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Setley. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Food hygiene inspections in Setley are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. 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.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere in Setley, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Brockenhurst Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Setley, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
