Multi-site and managed buildings

Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

About our TR19 inspection in Stanmore

After a clean, post-clean verification checks the result, with fresh grease readings, pictures and a look at the areas that were cleaned. It shows whether the system was left in the condition the paperwork describes. If you have insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning and sites with gaps in their extract records, we can put it right.

Kitchens around a place like Stanmore are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.

We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

TR19 inspection around Stanmore

Food Standards Agency records include about 32 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 4 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within about 1.5 miles of central Stanmore. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. The fire and rescue service for Stanmore is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Kitchens in Stanmore get their food hygiene inspections from Winchester City council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.

Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Stanmore is Royal Hampshire County Hospital, about 0.7 miles north-east. Where a hall near Saint Luke, or anywhere in Stanmore, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before we start, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Around Stanmore, access is usually simpler than in a town centre, though gates and roof access are worth mentioning.

  1. We go through any past certificates and reports.
  2. The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
  3. Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
  4. Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
  5. We report back with readings and a fixed quote.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Move anything stored near the system

Do you need TR19 inspection in Stanmore?

As hot, greasy air travels up the duct, it cools and leaves a film behind. The thickest layers can sit out of sight in the plenum, at bends and along flat runs.

If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
  • Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
  • Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
  • Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning

For schools such as Stanmore Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

What a clean won’t put right

We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:

  • Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
  • Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
  • Ductwork that was designed or installed badly

Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Pre-clean surveys
  • Insurer audits
  • Access surveys
  • Post-clean checks
  • Deposit thickness tests
  • Wet film thickness tests

Leave it or put it right?

After an incident, an insurer can ask to see proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection. Missing records can put a claim at risk. Getting an inspection done now starts that paper trail. Booking now means the visit to Stanmore is planned around you, not forced by a breakdown.

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

Why book with us

  • Trading since 2009
  • A fixed price before any work starts
  • A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London
  • Fully insured

Different parts, different methods

Extract fan and discharge

A greasy fan works harder and wears faster. Readings show if it needs attention before the next clean.

Canopy and plenum

Clean-looking filters do not mean a clean plenum. So we measure behind the filters, not just in front.

FAQs for Stanmore

Can you work in Stanmore outside opening hours?

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

Which fire service covers Stanmore?

Stanmore is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.

Can you inspect our extract for our insurance company?

Yes. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection, and our audit gives a clear record of the system’s condition, along with any actions needed.

How much does TR19 inspection cost?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.

When should we have our next grease test?

Each report recommends when to test and clean next, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used. The interval should come from a competent person’s risk assessment backed by grease measurement.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.

How much time does an inspection need?

It takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. We fit it around when the kitchen is closed or quiet.

What should I send you?

Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
