Buckinghamshire · TR19 inspections and grease testing
Berghers Hill TR19 inspection
Our technicians work in Berghers Hill on TR19 inspections and grease testing. Out-of-hours visits, a fixed quote and a written report with pictures as standard.
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
- Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
Part by part
Extract fan and discharge
Grease builds up on the fan blades and inside the housing. They’re included in the readings and photos.
Vertical risers
In buildings with several floors, the riser may pass through other tenants’ space, so access is planned in advance.
TR19 inspection in Berghers Hill, done properly
Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. In a busy kitchen, grease can build faster than the minimum intervals allow for, which is why measurement matters. We give your risk assessment measured figures rather than guesses. Typical jobs include insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning and kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings, across deposit thickness tests, wet film thickness tests and post-clean checks.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What affects the quote in Berghers Hill
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.
When something else is needed
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

What staff can safely do
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. 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.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
TR19 inspection in Berghers Hill: the local picture
Food Standards Agency data counts about 20 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 3 takeaways in and around Berghers Hill, up to about a mile and a half out. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Berghers Hill. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council inspect food businesses in Berghers Hill. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Cliveden is about 1.7 miles south), access may need planning. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Wooburn Green Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Marlow Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Berghers Hill, about 4.1 miles west.

Leave it or put it right?
If there’s a fire or a claim, your insurer may ask for TR19 records. Without them, a claim can be reduced or refused. An up-to-date inspection report is a good place to start. Somewhere as small as Berghers Hill, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Flag oily drips near the extract
Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. With panels fitted, the next clean can cover every section.
Keep all TR19 records together so you can produce them quickly.
How the visit works
We are used to working while the site is closed. 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 around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Somewhere like Berghers Hill, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- Grease readings are taken and photos recorded.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
How to prepare
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
Ask for a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Questions from Berghers Hill
Will you come out to Berghers Hill?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Berghers Hill is covered. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Berghers Hill in the summer holidays?

Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
How do you measure grease in a kitchen extract?
Grease thickness testing measures the layer of grease on the duct surfaces, by WFTT or DTT. Each reading is recorded in microns.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
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 send you a fixed quote.
Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection, and our audit gives a clear record of the system’s condition, with recommendations where something needs doing.
