TR19 Inspection in The Green
Need TR19 inspection in The Green? We survey first, give you a fixed quote and work around your opening hours, finishing with a written report and photos.
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
How we handle TR19 inspection in The Green
Before any clean in The Green, we survey the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, fan and discharge. Access is checked along the full length, and record grease readings at set points. If you have kitchens whose menu or hours have changed and insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning, we can help, from deposit thickness tests, access surveys and wet film thickness tests onwards.
In a small place like The Green, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Do you need TR19 inspection in The Green?
Records can go missing when a business changes hands or contractors. With no history, the current state of the extract is a guess.
The symptoms we’re asked about most include:
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
Commuter trade near Cressing station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.
What your quote should include
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- What hours they’ll be on site
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in The Green
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- The size of the system
- The times the site is available
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
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 the price is fixed before any work starts.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 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 typically come back within one working day.
Leave it or put it right?
Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Left alone, grease keeps building between cleans. In a small place like The Green, a system that fails can take a site out of use.

Why book with us
- Full insurance on every job
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout

Managing agents and facilities teams in The Green
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in The Green and across Essex. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Kitchen extracts in The Green
The Green, about 37 miles from central London, is within our usual area. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. In The Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Braintree council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
For schools such as Cressing Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Barnabas or elsewhere in The Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

How it works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. In a small place like The Green, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- The same access points are opened up.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
How to get a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
Advice
Your questions about TR19 inspection in The Green
Do you work overnight in The Green?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you cover smaller places like The Green?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and The Green is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Yes, where the pictures show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
What do the grease readings need to be?
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. Our report sets your readings against both.
How much does TR19 inspection cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote and we will usually reply within one working day.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
