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.

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.

What does a kitchen porter really cost per hour in 2026? 🍽️

The National Living Wage is £12.71, but a directly employed porter costs roughly £14.80 an hour once NI, pension and holiday pay are added. Agency cover in London starts at £18.50 daytime, with evening and same-day rates above that.

The article on our blog breaks down the full numbers, what the gap actually buys, and when each option makes sense for your kitchen.

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.

Right-to-work checks: one duty you can't delegate away. 📋

The legal responsibility sits with you as the operator, and the check has to happen BEFORE employment starts.

Three valid routes: Share Code (digital), passport + visa, or BRP card.

Where staff come through a provider, they must have been verified by that provider — ask to see the evidence and keep a copy.

Check which clause your kitchen policy uses for extract cleaning. 📋

Condition precedent — no current TR19 certificate, no cover at all.
Warranty — the payout is reduced in proportion to the added risk.
"Industry standard" — no clause named, but TR19 is the standard, so you're held to it anyway.

They are not the same thing, and the difference shows up only when you claim.

What should a kitchen porter actually be certified to do? 🍽️

The list is shorter than most people expect:

✅ Level 2 Food Safety — the baseline, valid 3 years
✅ Right-to-work verification — a legal duty that sits with you
✅ Allergen awareness — wherever the KP touches plated food

Our guide covers what each involves and what to ask for when booking.

Does your kitchen insurance actually require TR19 cleaning? 🔥

Most commercial kitchen policies reference the standard directly in the wording — and most operators only find that out when a claim is being assessed.

Without a current certificate, fire damage claims are routinely reduced or refused.

Our guide covers the clause types, what a loss adjuster asks for, and how often ducts need doing.
