TR19 inspection across Sherfield on Loddon

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

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.

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

TR19 inspection in Sherfield on Loddon, done properly

A fixed schedule doesn’t always match how a kitchen really cooks. In a busy kitchen, grease can build faster than the minimum intervals allow for, and only measurement shows it. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. We’re often asked to deal with parts of the system left out of past cleans and systems that need surveying before cleaning, across post-clean checks, wet film thickness tests and deposit thickness tests.

Somewhere as small as Sherfield on Loddon, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.

We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Never cook with filters missing
  • Report grease dripping from the canopy
  • Keep the route to access panels clear
  • Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request

Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. With panels fitted, the next clean can cover every section.

When cooking hours or the menu change, check the interval still fits. Fresh readings show whether it needs to change.

What we do, step by step

We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Sherfield on Loddon run smoothly.

  1. After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
  2. The same access points are opened up.
  3. Grease readings are taken again at set points.
  4. We photograph each area to record how it was left.
  5. We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

Advice

How we price TR19 inspection

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • The condition of the system
  • The number of sites or systems

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

What to send for a quote

You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.

When it’s something else

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
  • Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
  • Mechanical faults in the extract

Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Sherfield on Loddon. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.

Which environmental health team covers Sherfield on Loddon?

The local authority for Sherfield on Loddon is Basingstoke and Deane council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.

Can you inspect our extract for our insurance company?

Yes. We inspect the system and produce a report with grease readings, pictures and any inaccessible areas. It’s set out for your insurer or broker.

What grease levels does TR19 allow?

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

Are you accredited?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.

Why survey before a clean?

A survey finds out how the system is laid out, how dirty it is and what can be reached, before anyone starts cleaning. Any access problems are flagged so they can be sorted first.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

What about areas you can’t get to?

They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.

What staff can safely do

Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
