Worksop · TR19 Grease
We clean the full commercial duct run - grease, dry and laundry ductwork, canopy to roof fan - for kitchens, offices and industrial sites across Worksop, and certify it to the TR19 Grease standard your insurer expects.
Worksop
Worksop rates hundreds of food premises, and behind a large share sits an extract duct a canopy clean never reaches - plus the dry ductwork and air-handling that keep its offices and public buildings running.
From Bridge Street to Bridge Place and Priory Centre, the town's cooklines vent through long hidden ducting that climbs to a roof fan. We clean it end to end to the TR19 Grease standard - not just the canopy, but the flat and rising sections where grease really collects.
The same crews clean dry ventilation and air-handling ductwork in offices, schools and civic buildings, plus the combustible lint runs behind hotel and care-home dryers. High-turnover sites - the local college, Bassetlaw District General Hospital, the Priory centre and the town hotels - build grease fastest in the concealed lengths where flame spreads.
The standard
TR19 Grease is the benchmark Worksop insurers and fire risk assessors expect - measured across the whole extract run, not just the visible mouth of the canopy.
Grease is measured by thickness, and the standard sets the depth at which a system must be cleaned and re-tested. Around Bridge Street and Priory Centre, where the concealed runs thread through mixed roof voids, a canopy-and-filter wipe leaves the ductwork itself - the long hidden sections where grease accumulates and a fire travels - untouched. We access the full Worksop run through existing and newly fitted inspection hatches, clean to bare metal, record before-and-after grease-depth readings at set points, and issue a TR19 Grease certificate with a post-clean depth record.
By system
The fire risk. Fried-food extract coats duct walls in combustible grease; cleaned canopy to fan and certified to TR19 Grease.
Supply and general extract in offices and public buildings, carrying dust and debris that throttles airflow and loads the air-handling unit; cleaned to TR19.
The hidden one. Tumble-dryer ducting packs with lint - highly combustible - in Worksop hotels, care homes and gyms.
On the ground in Worksop
We are in Worksop's ductwork and plant every week. The proof is the jobs, not the stock photos.
A Bridge Street restaurant in Worksop had a heavy grease film through the horizontal extract and up the riser above a busy cook line. We fitted new access panels, hand-scraped the accessible lengths and ran an enzyme degreaser through the sealed sections, returning the ductwork to clean metal for the fire and insurance standard. It was worked overnight so the town-centre trade lost no covers.
When it is due
Ductwork rarely warns you politely. In a busy Worksop kitchen these are the tells.
Smells pushing back into the dining room, a canopy that drips onto a Bridge Street cookline, extraction that no longer clears the steam, visible grease at the filter edges, or a Worksop insurer or fire risk assessment asking for a TR19 certificate you cannot produce. Cleaning frequency tracks use - a hard-frying Bridge Place kitchen needs it far more often than a daytime cafe - and your certificate states the interval, so the next clean is never a guess.
How it runs
Inspect the full Worksop run, find the access gaps in the concealed sections, agree scope and frequency.
Fit inspection hatches where the run is sealed - common in the older Priory Centre conversions - and protect the kitchen.
Canopy to roof fan, down to bare metal, with before-and-after grease-depth evidence.
TR19 Grease certificate, grease-depth record and next-due date for your Worksop fire logbook.
Why it matters
Three duties push every Worksop operator to keep ductwork clean, and they reinforce one another.
Fire safety law. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person for a Worksop premises must assess and manage fire risk. A grease-laden duct is one of the most serious risks in any catering building, because a flare-up on a Bridge Street cookline can travel the ductwork and spread fire through concealed voids. The Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and the HSE reinforce the same duty of care.
Insurance. To a Worksop insurer a current TR19 Grease certificate is the proof the extract has been kept up. Let it lapse and a fire claim can be scaled back or declined outright - the kind of gap nobody wants to find with the kitchen already gutted.
Hygiene and environmental health. Bassetlaw District Council food hygiene inspections assess the physical condition of premises, ventilation included. A grease-clogged system can count against the rating an Environmental Health Officer awards, quite apart from the smell and the falling extract performance your staff have to work in.
It is set by cooking hours under TR19 Grease - roughly every three months for heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day, every six for moderate, every twelve for light. A hard-frying Bridge Street kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime Bridge Place cafe. We measure the grease load and confirm your interval.
Little, if it is planned. We survey the Worksop run first, agree a slot overnight or on a close day, sheet off the kitchen and clean section by section, so a Bridge Place cookline is back in service for the next shift.
The full run, canopy through the concealed horizontal and vertical ductwork to the roof fan - the hidden sections a canopy-only clean leaves loaded, which matters in the tight stock around Bridge Street and Priory Centre where the runs are long and awkward.
A dated TR19 certificate, before-and-after photographs of each section, and an access report for your fire logbook - the evidence a Bridge Street operator's insurer and fire risk assessor expect.
Yes. We clean the dry ductwork and air-handling in Worksop offices, schools and public buildings, and the lint-heavy laundry ducts in the Nottinghamshire hotels and care homes, alongside kitchen grease ducts.
We fit compliant access panels where the ductwork has none, so every internal section can be reached, cleaned, inspected and certified - common in the older Priory Centre conversions where the run was boxed in with no hatches.
Yes - from Bridge Street and Bridge Place kitchens to the offices, schools and industrial units across Worksop and the wider Nottinghamshire.
