TR19 inspection in Trotton Marsh

About our TR19 inspection in Trotton Marsh

BESA’s minimum cleaning frequencies depend on how long the kitchen cooks each day: every 3 months for heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day, every 6 months for moderate use of 6 to 12 hours, and every 12 months for light use of 2 to 6 hours. Grease testing shows whether your kitchen needs cleaning more often than that. We are often asked to deal with cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen and confirming a clean reached the whole system, on deposit thickness tests, post-clean checks and wet film thickness tests.

In a small place like Trotton Marsh, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.

It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.

Grease, kitchens and Trotton Marsh

Trotton Marsh is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. At about 45 miles from central London, Trotton Marsh sits well inside the area we cover. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.

A hospital like Midhurst Community Hospital, about 3.8 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Why act early in Trotton Marsh

An EHO visit, an insurance renewal or a fire risk assessment is a bad time to find your extract records are thin. A recent inspection report means you are ready when asked. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Trotton Marsh is calmer for everyone.

Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.

Take a look at what affects the cost or how to check a contractor.

How it works

Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. The timing of a visit to Trotton Marsh is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
  2. We open the access points used on the clean.
  3. Grease readings are taken again at set points.
  4. Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
  5. We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Ask for a quote

Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Advice

Signs you need TR19 inspection in Trotton Marsh

Kitchens change: a new menu, longer hours or more frying can all add grease. The old cleaning schedule may not match the kitchen any more.

These are the problems we see most often:

  • An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
  • Missing access panels found on survey
  • Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
  • Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts

Historic houses near Trotton Marsh, such as Cowdray House about 4.2 miles south-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

Trotton Marsh questions

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Trotton Marsh?

That’s Chichester council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Trotton Marsh. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.

Will you come out to Trotton Marsh?

Yes. Trotton Marsh is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that cannot wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.

What happens on a pre-clean survey?

We check the layout, the grease levels and the access, so the clean goes to plan. Missing access panels are noted ahead of the clean.

What happens to the waste?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we’ll quote them together.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.

Is TR19 cleaning the law?

No, not in itself. The Fire Safety Order 2005 still requires the responsible person to manage fire risk, and grease in the extract is part of that. Many insurance policies also require TR19 adherence.

For landlords and multi-site operators

From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Trotton Marsh

Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle

Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

What we need to know

There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:

  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

For TR19 inspection in Trotton Marsh, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, and send photos or your last report if you can. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.

Different parts, different methods

Horizontal duct runs

Sections without access are recorded so panels can be added.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

School and college kitchens still need their extract checked. Testing shows whether the interval suits.
