TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Ascott Earl
Think of a TR19 inspection as the diagnosis before the treatment. We look at the system, take grease readings and photograph what we find, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. The work covers post-clean checks, pre-clean surveys and deposit thickness tests, and people most often call us about extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean and insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning.
In a small place like Ascott Earl, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. With panels fitted, the next clean can cover every section.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
The process
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Ascott Earl, let us know and we will plan around it.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- We photograph the test points and record any sections we can’t reach.
- The findings go into a report with readings, pictures and a recommended next clean.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Ascott Earl?
When a site in Ascott Earl changes owner or cleaning contractor, the records don’t always follow. With no history, the current state of the extract is a guess.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Checking the result of a recent clean
- Sites with gaps in their extract records
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
Historic houses near Ascott Earl, such as Minster Lovell Hall about 4.7 miles south, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

Ascott Earl kitchens: local notes

Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Ascott Earl sits within the area of Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
If you cook for passing trade around Ascott-Under-Wychwood station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.

Common questions in Ascott Earl
Which environmental health team covers Ascott Earl?

Who is the fire and rescue service for Ascott Earl?
It’s Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Ascott Earl. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
A post-clean check records grease readings and pictures after the work, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Is Ascott Earl in your area?
Yes. Our technicians work in Ascott Earl, within the South East and London area we cover.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What a clean won’t put right
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Ascott Earl and across Oxfordshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
What happens if it’s left?
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. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Ascott Earl is calmer for everyone.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Why book with us
- A fixed price before any work starts
- Each visit written up, with photos
