TR19 inspections and grease testing in Spring Park, Greater London

Why deal with it now?
If a kitchen in Spring Park has been cleaned on the same calendar for years, there’s no way to know if that interval is right without measuring. Testing gives you the evidence to set it properly. It’s better booked as a planned job in Spring Park than handled as an emergency.
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What you get with us
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
- Fully insured

How we handle TR19 inspection in Spring Park
Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. 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. Common call-outs are for systems that need surveying before cleaning and ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits, on post-clean checks, access surveys and wet film thickness tests.
Kitchens in Spring Park, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, which is why keeping it clean to TR19® matters.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Grease, kitchens and Spring Park
There are about 84 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 35 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Spring Park, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Each kitchen extract among them can be measured for grease to set the right cleaning interval. It’s Croydon council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Spring Park. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Spring Park is covered by London Fire Brigade. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Forest Academy, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If you cook for passing trade around West Wickham station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- The scale of the work
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- A single visit or a regular plan
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.
The process
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Expect the work in Spring Park to happen after your last customer leaves, not during trading.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know about parking and loading

Advice
What a clean won’t put right
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what TR19 inspection won’t do:
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
- Mechanical faults in the extract
- The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on in Spring Park
- Deposit thickness tests
- Wet film thickness tests
- Post-clean checks
- Access surveys
- Insurer audits
- Pre-clean surveys
When to call us in Spring Park
Menus, opening hours and cooking styles change over time, and more frying or longer hours mean more grease. The old cleaning schedule may not match the kitchen any more.
What we are most often called out for:
- Sections of duct that can’t be reached
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as National Psychosis Unit (about under half a mile north), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
Comparing quotes

- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- Whether they recommend a next date
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

Other services in Spring Park
Spring Park: your questions answered
Who inspects food businesses in Spring Park?
Food hygiene inspections in Spring Park are carried out by Croydon council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Can school kitchens in Spring Park be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 11 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Spring Park, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Where does the waste go?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
What grease levels does TR19 allow?
Two figures matter: a mean of no more than 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns at any single point, which needs immediate spot cleaning. We show your readings against those figures.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.
Why survey before a clean?
We survey, measure and photograph the system first. We can work from pictures and details, or visit, whichever suits the system.
Is TR19 cleaning the law?
No, not in itself. But the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk under the Fire Safety Order 2005, which in a kitchen includes grease in the extract. Many insurers also expect TR19 cleaning.
