Advice
How we handle TR19 inspection in Titchfield
Before any clean in Titchfield, we survey the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, fan and discharge. We check where the access panels are and whether every section can be reached, and record grease readings at set points. The work covers pre-clean surveys, access surveys and deposit thickness tests, and the jobs we see most are confirming a clean reached the whole system and surveys needed before quoting a full clean.
In a village or hamlet like Titchfield, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What the work involves, part by part
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
A kitchen running from breakfast to late service builds grease quickly. Readings show if the cleans are frequent enough.
Canopy and plenum
The canopy itself is checked inside and out, with readings where grease collects.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
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, which is where we come in.
Do you need TR19 inspection in Titchfield?
Records can go missing when a business changes hands or contractors. With no history, the current state of the extract is a guess.
Look out for any of the following:
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
Where a hall near Church of St Peter, or anywhere in Titchfield, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Questions from Titchfield
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Titchfield in the summer holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 10 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Titchfield. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the dates the site is empty.
Is TR19 inspection any different in a coastal place like Titchfield?
Yes, to a degree: at about 2 miles from the coast, Titchfield gets salt-laden air that corrodes metal faster. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
How much time does an inspection need?
An inspection takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. Large or multiple systems take longer, so call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll plan it.
What do you do to 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 happens on a pre-clean survey?
It’s a look at the whole extract before it’s cleaned, with readings and pictures. We can work from pictures and details, or visit, as suits the job.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Are you accredited?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.
Why deal with it now?
A check after cleaning shows whether the work reached every part it should have, while there’s still time to put anything right. Somewhere as small as Titchfield, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.
Why us?
- Fixed quotes, usually within one working day
- Fully insured
- Every visit written up, with photos
- One number for every site across the South East and London
Looking after it afterwards
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
The audit report is set out to pass straight to your insurer or broker, with readings, pictures and any areas not accessible.
Close the access gaps found during inspection, so every part of the duct can be cleaned.
TR19 inspection around Titchfield
Sea air reaches Titchfield, which sits within about 2 miles of the coast. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. There are about 21 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 10 takeaways in Titchfield and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. Titchfield sits within the area of 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.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Fareham Community Hospital about 2.3 miles north-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Titchfield Primary School or anywhere near Titchfield, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
