What your team can do, and what needs us

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Wishanger Common

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. If you are dealing with kitchens taken over with no cleaning records and extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean, we can help.

In a village or hamlet like Wishanger Common, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically 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.

The process

Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. The timing of a visit to Wishanger Common is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
  2. Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
  3. Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
  4. Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
  5. The findings go into a report with readings, photos and a recommended next clean.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Find the previous report, if there is one

How to get a quote

We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Keeping the system healthy

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

  • Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
  • Keep access panels clear and unpainted
  • Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
  • Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans

For an insurer audit, send them the report as it is, with readings, pictures and any areas not accessible.

Keep filters clean and in place. Missing or damaged filters let grease straight into the plenum.

TR19 inspection in Wishanger Common: the local picture

Food hygiene inspections in Wishanger Common are the job of East Hampshire council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fire safety in Wishanger Common falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.

Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Chase Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Wishanger Common, about 3.6 miles south-west.

What the work involves, part by part

Horizontal duct runs

Grease settles on the floor of horizontal ducts as the air cools. We test at points along the run through access panels.

Restaurants, pubs and hotels

Inspections are done when the kitchen is closed or quiet so the kitchen keeps cooking.

How we price TR19 inspection

You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:

  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • The number of sites or systems
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Where the site is and how we reach it

Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.

What to send for a quote

To speed up the quote, send us:

  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • The postcode and the type of business

To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We typically come back within one working day.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Surrey. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.

When to call us in Wishanger Common

Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers look to TR19® as the benchmark. TR19® itself is not law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping grease under control.

If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • Missing TR19 certificates or history
  • Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
  • Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
  • Uncertainty over how often to clean

A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St John the Evangelist or elsewhere in Wishanger Common, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
  • Whether they recommend a next date
  • Proof of insurance
  • Whether VAT is included

Common questions in Wishanger Common

Will you come out to Wishanger Common?

Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Wishanger Common included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Wishanger Common?

Wishanger Common is in the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.

What information do you need?

Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What do you do to protect the area?

We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

How much notice should we give?

For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.

Is TR19 a legal requirement?

No. TR19® is a specification, not a statute. In practice, an insurer can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of TR19 cleaning, so following it is the sensible course.

Where does the waste go?

It leaves the site with us when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
