Hampshire · TR19 inspections and grease testing
Baughurst TR19 inspection
TR19 inspection across Baughurst and nearby, timed so the site keeps working and signed off in writing with photos.
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Baughurst
Grease thickness testing tells you how much grease is sitting in the canopy, ducts and fan. We use the Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or the Deposit Thickness Test (DTT), taking readings at set points. The results show whether the system needs cleaning and how soon. The work covers access surveys, insurer audits and wet film thickness tests, and common reasons people get in touch are missing TR19 certificates or history and confirming a clean reached the whole system.
In a village or hamlet like Baughurst, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Baughurst questions
Is Baughurst within the area you cover?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Baughurst included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Baughurst?
Fire safety enforcement in Baughurst is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
When should we have our next grease test?
Often enough to know the mean stays under 200 microns between cleans. If readings rise, the interval should shorten.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
What happens on a pre-clean survey?
We look at the system from canopy to discharge, take grease readings and check access. From it, we plan the clean and quote a fixed price.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we’ll survey first.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Parking and loading at the site
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 will price it together.
Helping us quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- A few general shots of the system
- Any previous report or certificate
To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will usually have a quote within one working day.
For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Baughurst and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Keeping the system healthy
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
- Never cook with filters missing
Keep the verification report next to the certificate it relates to. The pair gives a clear record of the clean and the check.
Regular grease readings keep the cleaning interval honest. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.
TR19 inspection in Baughurst: the local picture
Food Standards Agency records list about 8 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 8 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Baughurst. Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. Baughurst sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Kitchens in Baughurst get their food hygiene inspections from Basingstoke and Deane council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Baughurst is Park Prewett Hospital, about 5.4 miles south-east. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (The Vyne is about 4.6 miles south-east), access may need planning. Term dates shape school work: for a school like The Hurst School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

The process
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Somewhere as small as Baughurst, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen isn’t busy.
- The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
- We send a report setting out the readings, pictures and next steps.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Find the previous report, if there is one
