TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Warren Street
Before any clean in Warren Street, 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. If you’re dealing with surveys needed before quoting a full clean and heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts, we can put it right, from post-clean checks, wet film thickness tests and deposit thickness tests onwards.
Somewhere as small as Warren Street, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Warren Street questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Warren Street?
That’s Maidstone council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Warren Street. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Do you work at weekends in Warren Street?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Warren Street needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection, and an audit report gives you that, along with any actions needed.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
Why survey before a clean?
The survey covers the whole system, grease readings and access to each section. It lets us plan the clean and send you a fixed quote.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Warren Street
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- The times the site is available
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The number of sites or systems
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.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Warren Street.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
- We send a report setting out the readings, photos and next steps.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know about parking and loading

Related advice
When to call us in Warren Street
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers look to TR19® as the benchmark. It is not legislation; the legal duty comes from the Fire Safety Order 2005, under which the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and grease in the extract is part of that risk.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Belmont House and Gardens is about 4.1 miles north-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- What hours they’ll be on site
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- How they set the interval to the next visit
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
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.
Different parts, different methods
Horizontal duct runs
Grease settles on the floor of horizontal ducts as the air cools. Readings are taken along each run through its access panels.
Vertical risers
Risers can be hard to get into. We record what can and cannot be reached.
Leave it or put it right?
Sites in Warren Street that have never measured grease can’t tell whether their cleaning interval suits the kitchen. Measured readings let a competent person set the interval. Planning a trip to Warren Street ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

- A fixed price before any work starts
