TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Addlestone
Taking on a kitchen in Addlestone with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. You get readings, photos and a clear view of what’s needed, before any cleaning is booked. The work covers access surveys, post-clean checks and pre-clean surveys, and the jobs we see most are extracts that have never been grease tested and sites with gaps in their extract records.
For a smaller kitchen near Addlestone, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Multi-site and managed buildings
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Surrey. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.

Canopy and plenum
Behind the filters, the plenum catches plenty of grease. We take readings there and photograph it on every inspection.
Addlestone kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 83 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 25 sandwich bars and takeaways across Addlestone and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Each kitchen extract among them can be measured for grease to set the right cleaning interval. Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers Addlestone. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Environmental health officers from Runnymede council inspect food businesses in Addlestone. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
For schools such as Darley Dene Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Paul's or elsewhere in Addlestone, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Runnymede Hospital (about 1.5 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Addlestone questions
Who inspects food businesses in Addlestone?
Kitchens in Addlestone are inspected by Runnymede council’s environmental health officers. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Is Addlestone within the area you cover?
Yes, Addlestone is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
How long does a TR19 inspection take?
It takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. We fit it around when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
Enough to be sure grease stays within the TR19® Grease figures between cleans. If readings rise, the interval should shorten.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Honest limits
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Design faults in the extract system
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
- The legal duty, which stays with the responsible person
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Where we work
- Wet film thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys

- Post-clean checks
The process
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Addlestone, so let us know how to reach it.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
- You get a report with readings, photos and recommendations.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Addlestone
A pre-clean survey avoids surprises on the night. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, so the clean covers the whole system. It’s better to plan the work at a site near Addlestone than wait for a failure.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The scale of the work
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How many systems or sites are involved
- A single visit or a regular plan
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The site address and the type of premises
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- A few general shots of the system
If you need TR19 inspection in Addlestone, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, and send photos or your last report if you can. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
