What is TR19? 🔥

It is the industry specification for cleaning commercial kitchen extract systems, and the one your insurer references in the policy wording. It sets a cleanliness limit of 200 microns of grease, a cleaning frequency based on how many hours a day the extract runs, and a certificate after every clean.

Grease build-up is the single most common cause of commercial kitchen fires. The plain-English guide explains what TR19 requires and what good cleaning looks like: https://mrkitchenporter.com/blog/what-is-tr19/

TR19 is the BESA grease specification that underpins commercial kitchen extract cleaning compliance. Here is what it is, what it requires, and why it matters.

What does a kitchen porter really cost per hour? 🍽️

The National Living Wage is £12.71 from April 2026, but a directly employed KP costs roughly £14.80 an hour once NI, pension, holiday and sick pay are added. Agency cover in London starts at £18.50 daytime and £24 for evenings, all-in on one invoice.

The guide breaks down the numbers and when each option makes sense: https://mrkitchenporter.com/blog/kitchen-porter-hourly-rate-uk/

Kitchen porter hourly rates in the UK sit between £12.71 (NLW) and £24 (agency, evening cover) in 2026. Here is the full pay breakdown.

How often should commercial kitchen ducts be cleaned? 🔥

TR19 Grease sets it by how many hours a day the extract runs: every 3 months for 12 hours or more, every 6 months for 6 to 12 hours, every 12 months for under 6 hours. Count the fan hours, not the trading hours.

Our guide explains how to classify your kitchen, what to do with multiple zones, and why insurers check the cycle matches.

Read it here: https://mrkitchenporter.com/blog/how-often-should-commercial-kitchen-ducts-be-cleaned/

TR19 sets kitchen extract cleaning frequency by usage hours: 3 months for heavy, 6 months for moderate, 12 months for light. Here is how to classify your kitchen.

Are agency kitchen porters entitled to holiday pay? Yes: 5.6 weeks (28 days) a year, pro-rated to hours worked. 🍽️

The useful part for operators is how it is delivered. Mr Kitchen Porter uses the accrued model, so the porter builds up leave and takes it, and the holiday element is already inside the hourly rate. One all-in rate, no separate charge.

Our guide explains the two models, the 12-week rule and what to check on an invoice.

Read it here: https://mrkitchenporter.com/blog/are-agency-kitchen-porters-entitled-to-holiday-pay/

Yes — agency kitchen porters are entitled to statutory holiday pay. Here is how it works, how it is calculated, and what to look for on your invoice.

How much does a TR19 certificate cost? 🔥

If your extract system has already been cleaned to TR19 specification and you only need the paperwork, a standalone inspection and certificate costs £180 to £450 in 2026 depending on system size. If you book the TR19 clean itself, the certificate is included free.

Our guide explains what drives the price, when a standalone certificate makes sense, and the one reading that stops a certificate being issued.

A standalone TR19 certificate costs £180-£450 in 2026. As part of a TR19 clean: included free. Here is the price breakdown.

Agency or in-house kitchen porter? 🍽️

The hourly rate gap looks big on paper. It shrinks fast once you count recruitment, onboarding, no-shows, four-month average tenure and the management time on rota and payroll.

Our guide sets out the real all-in comparison, when agency cover wins, when direct hire wins, and why most well-run kitchens use a small in-house team with agency cover for peaks and gaps.

Agency vs in-house kitchen porters — the cost gap is smaller than you think. Here is the real comparison including hidden in-house costs.

How much does a commercial kitchen deep clean cost? 🧽

It is built on five inputs: kitchen size, equipment count, current condition, how often you commit to cleaning, and when the team can get access. A typical independent restaurant kitchen sits between £600 and £900 for a periodic clean; a large hotel kitchen ranges from £1,200 to £2,400.

The article on our blog shows how each input moves the number, with two worked examples and how to get a real quote.

A KP without Level 2 Food Safety isn't just a training gap 🍽️

EHO inspectors check that kitchen staff hold it. Where they don't, it can land as a negative under Confidence in Management — a judgement about the whole operation, not a one-off fault you can clean up before the next visit.

The fix is a day-long course, valid three years.

UK kitchen porters should hold Level 2 Food Safety, RTW verification, and (for some sites) Allergens. Here is the full credentials picture.

After a kitchen fire, the loss adjuster asks for three things 🔥

1. Your last TR19 certificate
2. The full history of certificates for the period of cover
3. Any emails about deferring or missing a scheduled clean

Most operators can produce the first. The second and third are where claims get contested.

Keep the whole run — not just the current one.

Most commercial kitchen insurance policies reference TR19 compliance directly. Here is what the major UK insurers actually require — and what happens after a fire if you cannot prove it.
