How we handle TR19 inspection in Sheet
A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. We look at the system, take grease readings and photograph what we find, so the clean can be planned properly. Common call-outs are for kitchens whose menu or hours have changed and extracts that have never been grease tested, across access surveys, post-clean checks and wet film thickness tests.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Kitchen extracts in Sheet
Food Standards Agency data counts about 16 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 8 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Sheet, up to about a mile and a half out. Where they cook under a canopy, a grease reading is the way to tell whether the extract is due a clean. Sheet is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. In Sheet, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from East Hampshire council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Sheet Primary School or anywhere near Sheet, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Where a hall near Church of St Mary Magdalene, or anywhere in Sheet, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Sheet?
Grease builds up as cooking vapour cools inside the extract. It often collects where nobody can see it: the plenum, bends and horizontal runs.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
Uppark, about 4.5 miles south, is one of the historic houses near Sheet; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

Advice
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. 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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Report grease dripping from the canopy
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
For an insurer audit, send them the report as it is, including readings, photos and any inaccessible sections.
Revisit the cleaning interval whenever the menu or hours change. Fresh readings show whether it needs to change.
How we price TR19 inspection
You will get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- What state the system is in
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The site address and the type of premises
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
Why deal with it now?
Finding a hotspot early means a targeted spot clean rather than a bigger problem later. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. A fault that closes a site in a village like Sheet affects everyone who depends on it.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

FAQs for Sheet
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Sheet?
That’s East Hampshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Sheet. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Sheet out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Around Sheet, the Food Standards Agency lists about 5 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the dates the site is empty.
Do we have to follow TR19 by law?
No. TR19® is a specification, not a statute. Without TR19 records, an insurance claim can be reduced or refused, so following it is the sensible course.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
How much does TR19 inspection cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
What should I send you?
Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
