TR19 inspection in Shipton Bellinger, done properly

Many insurers ask for proof that kitchen extract systems are cleaned and inspected to TR19®. Missing records can lead to a claim being reduced or refused. A TR19 audit sets out the system’s condition, with readings and pictures, for sites in Shipton Bellinger and the rest of Hampshire. Typical jobs include checking the result of a recent clean and kitchens taken over with no cleaning records, on deposit thickness tests, pre-clean surveys and wet film thickness tests.

Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.

Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What TR19 inspection looks like in Shipton Bellinger

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Shipton Bellinger. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Environmental health officers from Test Valley council inspect food businesses in Shipton Bellinger. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.

Questions from Shipton Bellinger

Which fire authority looks after Shipton Bellinger?

It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Shipton Bellinger. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.

Can you work in Shipton Bellinger outside opening hours?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Shipton Bellinger keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Which sectors do you work in?

Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.

What grease levels does TR19 allow?

TR19® Grease says the mean shouldn’t exceed 200 microns between cleans, and anywhere at 500 microns or more needs spot cleaning right away.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.

Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?

Verification means repeat readings and photos once the clean is done. The report flags anything missed.

What happens to the waste?

We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.

Between visits

Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:

  • Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
  • Keep to the recommended interval
  • Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
  • Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge

You get a report with the grease readings, where they were taken and pictures of each point. Keep it with your fire safety and TR19 records.

Test grease regularly instead of relying on the calendar. It shows if build-up is speeding up.

What affects the quote in Shipton Bellinger

The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:

  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • The condition of the system
  • Travel, parking and unloading
  • The number of sites or systems

No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

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
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see

If you need TR19 inspection in Shipton Bellinger, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.

Why act early in Shipton Bellinger

A check after cleaning shows whether the work reached every part it should have, while there’s still time to put anything right. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

How the visit works

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off.

A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Shipton Bellinger run smoothly.

  1. Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
  2. The same access points are opened up.
  3. We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
  4. Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
  5. We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.

How to prepare

  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

How to get a quote

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Shipton Bellinger

Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

What your team can do, and what needs us

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t 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.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Shipton Bellinger?

Grease builds up as cooking vapour cools inside the extract. The thickest layers can sit out of sight in the plenum, at bends and along flat runs.

Clients usually contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
  • Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
  • Parts of the system left out of past cleans
  • Systems that need surveying before cleaning

Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Peter, or anywhere in Shipton Bellinger, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
