TR19 inspection for sites in West Town

Managing agents and facilities teams in West Town

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

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 to a regular schedule.

TR19 inspection in West Town

A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. We look at the system, take grease readings and photograph what we find, so the clean can be planned properly. If you’re dealing with pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean and missing TR19 certificates or history, we can help, from post-clean checks, pre-clean surveys and access surveys onwards.

Kitchens around a place like West Town are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Report grease dripping from the canopy
  • Never cook with filters missing
  • Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
  • Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together

Readings of 500 microns or more are highlighted as needing immediate spot cleaning, and we can quote to do it.

Regular grease readings keep the cleaning interval honest. It shows if build-up is speeding up.

What the work involves, part by part

Schools, hospitals and care homes

In healthcare and care settings, kitchens may run from early until late. Readings show if cleaning is frequent enough.

Extract fan and discharge

A greasy fan works harder and wears faster. Readings show if it needs attention before the next clean.

TR19 inspection around West Town

At about 1 mile from the coast, West Town is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. Food Standards Agency records include about 8 pubs and bars and about 3 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of West Town. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Kitchens in West Town get their food hygiene inspections from Havant council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Warblington Castle is about 3.9 miles north), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Where a hall near St Mary's Church, or anywhere in West Town, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

West Town is about 1 mile west of South Hayling, in Hampshire. Whatever kind of site you run in West Town, we can take on TR19 inspection.

Common questions in West Town

Do you clean school canteen extracts around West Town out of term?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around West Town, the Food Standards Agency lists about 4 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.

Which fire service covers West Town?

That is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.

What’s TR19?

TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.

What do you do with what you remove?

Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.

Leave it or put it right?

A pre-clean survey avoids surprises on the night. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, so the clean covers the whole system. You choose the date of a planned visit, and a breakdown never asks.

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before we start.

Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in West Town

Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:

  • How many systems or sites are involved
  • Where the site is and how we reach it

Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:

  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Your last certificate, test record or report

To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

What we are called out for in West Town

Some parts of a system are hard to reach, and grease can be missed there clean after clean. An inspection of a system in West Town shows where access panels are missing, so the gaps can be closed.

Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
  • Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
  • Parts of the system left out of past cleans
  • Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings

School kitchens, at schools like Mengham Infant School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

What to look for in a quote

  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • What paperwork you get at the end

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before any work starts, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. For a site near West Town, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.

  1. First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
  2. The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
  3. Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
  4. Grease readings are taken and photos recorded.
  5. We report back with readings and a fixed quote.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

Get a fixed quote

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.
