What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How big the system is
- Whether several sites go on one quote
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll normally have a quote within one working day.
TR19 inspection in Allbrook
Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. In a busy kitchen, grease can build faster than the minimum intervals allow for, and only measurement shows it. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. The work covers wet film thickness tests, deposit thickness tests and access surveys, and the jobs we see most are missing access panels found on survey and an insurer’s request for a TR19 audit.
In a smaller place like Allbrook, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

FAQs for Allbrook
Can you work in Allbrook outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Allbrook keeps running as normal. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Is Allbrook within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Allbrook is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you will get one fixed quote.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Often, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Where we can’t see enough, we arrange a survey.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Allbrook
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Tell us when your site near Allbrook is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
- The findings go into a report with readings, photos and a recommended next clean.
How to prepare
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
Get a fixed quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.

What a clean will not put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Flag oily drips near the extract
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Book the next test on the date in the report
For an insurer audit, send them the report as it is, including readings, pictures and any inaccessible sections.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
What happens if it’s left?
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, and you can only act on that if you’ve measured it. Booking ahead lets us plan the trip to Allbrook at a time that suits you.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

When to call us in Allbrook
Some parts of a system are hard to reach, and grease can be missed there clean after clean. An inspection of a system in Allbrook shows where access panels are missing, so panels can be fitted.
Look out for any of the following:
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St. Peter's Church or elsewhere in Allbrook, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
What your quote should include
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
TR19 inspection around Allbrook
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 25 pubs, bars and clubs and about 3 hotels and B&Bs within about 1.5 miles of central Allbrook. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Allbrook sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Food hygiene inspections in Allbrook are the job of Eastleigh council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (South Stoneham House is about 3.7 miles south), access may need planning. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Scantabout Primary School or anywhere near Allbrook, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
