TR19 inspection for sites in West Clandon

What your team can do, and what needs us

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. 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.

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

How we handle TR19 inspection in West Clandon

A pre-clean survey looks at the whole system, from canopy to discharge. Access is checked along the full length, and grease readings are taken at set points. The work covers insurer audits, access surveys and deposit thickness tests, and people most often call us about checking the result of a recent clean and sites with gaps in their extract records.

In a small place like West Clandon, 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.

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

Questions from West Clandon

Which environmental health team covers West Clandon?

In West Clandon, it’s Guildford council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.

Can you work in West Clandon outside opening hours?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in West Clandon needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

What is post-clean verification?

Verification means repeat readings and pictures once the clean is done. Any areas that weren’t cleaned properly are flagged.

Why survey before a clean?

We look at the system from canopy to discharge, take grease readings and check access. It lets us plan the clean and give you a fixed quote.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.

Do you work in West Clandon?

Yes. We work in West Clandon and across Surrey, as part of our work across South East England and London. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

What do you do with what you remove?

It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

TR19 inspection around West Clandon

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in and around West Clandon, up to about a mile and a half out. Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. It’s Guildford council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in West Clandon. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers West Clandon. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Clandon CofE Aided Primary School or anywhere near West Clandon, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. For kitchens close to Clandon station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in West Clandon, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

When it’s something else

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

  • Hidden runs that need access panels first
  • Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
  • Installation problems, which fall under design guidance such as DW172

Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What the work covers

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

Looking after it afterwards

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
  • Keep the route to access panels clear
  • Never cook with filters missing
  • Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does

You get a report with the grease readings, where they were taken and photos of each point. File it alongside your TR19 certificates.

Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Missing or damaged filters let grease straight into the plenum.

What happens on the day

We turn up 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 any work starts, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like West Clandon.

  1. We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
  2. The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
  3. We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
  4. We photograph the test points and record any sections we cannot reach.
  5. We send a report setting out the readings, pictures and next steps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Ask for a quote

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.

Advice

Leave it or put it right?

After an incident, an insurer can ask to see proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection. Without them, a claim can be reduced or refused. An up-to-date inspection report is a good place to start. In a place like West Clandon, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.

If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.

Different parts, different methods

Horizontal duct runs

If a run has no access panel, we note it so panels can be added.

Vertical risers

Access to risers is often limited. We record what can and cannot be reached.
