What a TR19 clean covers
The whole extraction system, cleaned as one, by Umair Hussain. Every clean is priced in writing after a free site survey, before any work starts. What drives the cost of a TR19 clean.
Canopy and filters
Filters removed and degreased; canopy interior and underside cleaned back to metal.
Plenum
The void behind the filters, where grease collects out of sight, cleaned in full.
Ductwork
Duct cleaning through access panels: every section we can reach, with any section we cannot reach named on the report.
Extract fan
Fan, impeller and housing degreased, so grease is not thrown back into the duct.
Readings and photos
Grease thickness measured before and after at the same points, with dated photographs.
Report and certificate
A post-clean verification report and a certificate with a number anyone can check online.

TR19 cleaning in St Ives: questions
Do you cover St Ives?
Yes. St Ives is 20 miles from our base at 29 Ivatt Way, Peterborough (about 40 min by road), inside the core of our 70-mile area, so we work there regularly. Early-morning, evening and overnight cleans are available so the kitchen can keep trading.
Who enforces fire safety for commercial kitchens in St Ives?
Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service enforces the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 in St Ives. The Order puts the duty on the responsible person to manage fire risk, which includes grease in the extraction system. TR19 Grease is the BESA guidance most operators follow to show how that risk is managed; it is guidance, not law.
Who inspects food hygiene in St Ives?
Huntingdonshire District Council carries out food hygiene inspections for businesses in St Ives and publishes the ratings on the Food Standards Agency website. An environmental health officer may ask to see cleaning records for the extraction system; our post-clean report and certificate are written to be shown.
How often does a kitchen extract system in St Ives need cleaning?
BESA TR19 sets the interval by how many hours a day the kitchen cooks: 12 to 16 hours, every 3 months; 6 to 12 hours, every 6 months; 2 to 6 hours, every 12 months. Your insurance policy may set its own condition, so check it alongside TR19.
How much does TR19 cleaning cost in St Ives?
Kitchens in St Ives are priced the same way as everywhere we work: in writing, after a free site survey, before any work starts. The price depends on the canopies, the length and access of the ductwork and the fan; our TR19 cleaning cost guide explains each of them.
