Overview.
Remedial Works
TR19® inspections and fire risk assessments regularly raise defects that need putting right: leaking joints, corroded duct sections, missing access panels, failing extract fans and damaged canopy filters. Our remedial works service repairs these defects properly, so your system is safe, efficient and fully compliant.
Our engineers carry out ductwork repair and re-sealing, access panel installation, extract fan replacement and supply, and canopy filter replacement for commercial kitchens and ventilation systems nationwide. Every repair is quoted item by item, carried out to recognised standards and signed off with a completion report and photographic evidence.
Whether the defects were raised on our own report or by another contractor, send us the details and we will quote for the remedial items listed.

The Risks of Leaving It.
What Happens If It's Not Repaired.
Grease leaks & fire spread
Split joints, failed seals and corroded sections let grease and heat escape the ductwork into ceiling voids, creating a hidden fire load and a route for fire to spread through the building.
Failing extract fans
Worn bearings, failing motors, slipping belts and damaged impellers reduce extraction, raise kitchen temperatures and can shut down service without warning.
Damaged or missing canopy filters
Bent, perished or missing baffle filters let flame and grease straight into the ductwork, removing the first line of fire protection above the cooking line.
Inaccessible duct sections
Without correctly fitted access panels, sections of ductwork cannot be inspected, so a system cannot be fully certified as compliant.
Outstanding defects on reports
Insurers and auditors expect defects raised on TR19® reports to be resolved. Unactioned remedials can affect cover and compliance.
Why Compliance & Insurance Demand These Repairs.

- ✓Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005The Responsible Person must act on known fire risks. Repairing raised defects, and recording that they were fixed, discharges that duty.
- ✓Insurer policy conditionsInsurers expect defects raised on TR19® reports to be actioned. Unresolved remedials can give grounds to restrict or refuse a claim.
- ✓Evidence for auditorsItemised completion reports with before and after photos, parts fitted and commissioning results, accepted by fire risk assessors and insurers.
- ✓Long-term reliabilityCorrectly repaired ductwork, sealed joints and new fans reduce breakdowns, downtime and repeat call-outs.
