Buckinghamshire · TR19 inspections and grease testing
Adstock TR19 inspection
One call covers TR19 inspections and grease testing in Adstock, from survey to sign-off. CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, ISO 9001 and fully insured.
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Report grease dripping from the canopy
You get a report with the grease readings, where they were taken and pictures of each point. Keep it with your fire safety and TR19 records.
Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Missing or damaged filters let grease straight into the plenum.
TR19 inspection in Adstock
Many insurers ask for proof that kitchen extract systems are cleaned and inspected to TR19®. Missing records can lead to a claim being reduced or refused. A TR19 audit sets out the system’s condition, with readings and photos, for sites in Adstock and the rest of Buckinghamshire. If you have checking the result of a recent clean and cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen, we can help, from post-clean checks, deposit thickness tests and pre-clean surveys onwards.
Somewhere as small as Adstock, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Part by part
Vertical risers
In buildings with several floors, the riser may pass through other tenants’ space, so we arrange access ahead of time.
Horizontal duct runs
Grease settles on the floor of horizontal ducts as the air cools. We test at points along the run through access panels.
Common questions in Adstock
Can you work in Adstock outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Adstock doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Adstock in the summer holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 4 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Adstock. You can ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
What does a pre-clean survey involve?
We look at the system from canopy to discharge, take grease readings and check access. It lets us plan the clean and give you a fixed quote.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
What do you do to protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What should I send you?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
How the visit works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. In a small place like Adstock, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- The same access points are opened up.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Advice
What affects the quote in Adstock
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The times the site is available
- Parking and loading at the site
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Do you need TR19 inspection in Adstock?
Menus, opening hours and cooking styles change over time, and more frying or longer hours mean more grease. A cleaning interval set years ago may no longer fit.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Checking the result of a recent clean
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
A hospital like Buckingham Community Hospital, about 3.5 miles north-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
What your quote should include
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
When it’s something else
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- The legal duty, which stays with the responsible person
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
- Mechanical faults in the extract
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Deposit thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Access surveys
- Wet film thickness tests
- Insurer audits
- Post-clean checks
What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

What else we do in Adstock
TR19 inspection around Adstock
Kitchens in Adstock get their food hygiene inspections from Buckinghamshire council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Adstock, about 48 miles from central London, is within our usual area. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Claydon House is about 3.2 miles south), access may need planning. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Cecilia or anywhere around Adstock, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
Adstock is about 3 miles south-east of Buckingham, in Buckinghamshire. Across the MK18 area, we cover TR19 inspection for commercial sites. Our Buckinghamshire coverage runs to 263 places, and Adstock is one of them. Milton Keynes is in our area too, around 8 miles away.
