TR19 inspection in Yaverland, done properly
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. Common call-outs are for uncertainty over how often to clean and checking the result of a recent clean, across wet film thickness tests, post-clean checks and access surveys.
In a village or hamlet like Yaverland, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How it works
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. In a small place like Yaverland, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Advice
FAQs for Yaverland
Does coastal air change anything about TR19 inspection in Yaverland?
Yes, to a degree: at about 1 mile from the coast, Yaverland gets salt-laden air that corrodes metal faster. A fan housing that’s rusting near the coast can fail sooner, so it’s worth catching early.
Will you come out to Yaverland?
Yes, Yaverland is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What does TR19 inspection cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Yaverland
A check after cleaning shows whether the work reached every part it should have, before the next clean is due. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Yaverland is calmer for everyone.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
Keep all TR19 records together so you can produce them quickly.

Different parts, different methods
Horizontal duct runs
Bends and long runs can hold heavy deposits, well away from where anyone looks.
Canopy and plenum
Behind the filters, the plenum catches plenty of grease. We take readings there and photograph it as part of every survey.
How we price TR19 inspection
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What state the system is in
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Parking and loading at the site
- How many systems or sites are involved
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.
Helping us quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
There’s no standard 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 get going, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Grease, kitchens and Yaverland
Yaverland lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. There are about 32 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 9 takeaways and sandwich shops in Yaverland and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. Yaverland sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Church and community hall kitchens, near St John the Baptist Church or anywhere around Yaverland, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Term dates shape school work: for a school like The Bay Church of England School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Yaverland Manor, about 0.5 miles north, is one of the historic houses near Yaverland; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.
