Blewbury TR19 inspection
Professional TR19 inspection in and around Blewbury, booked around your opening hours and signed off in writing with photos.
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
The process
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. Somewhere like Blewbury, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Clear loose items from the work area

TR19 inspection in Blewbury
Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. Some kitchens build up grease faster than the minimum intervals assume, which is why measurement matters. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. The work covers access surveys, pre-clean surveys and post-clean checks, and the jobs we see most are heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts and kitchens taken over with no cleaning records.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What affects the quote in Blewbury
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The scale of the work
- The condition of the system
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
When it’s something else
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Where we work

Blewbury questions
Can you work in Blewbury outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Blewbury can fit around your hours. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Which fire authority looks after Blewbury?
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Blewbury. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® isn’t law; it’s BESA’s specification. The law is the Fire Safety Order 2005, under which the responsible person must manage fire risk, and TR19® is what insurers and fire officers look to.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.
Can you inspect our extract for our insurance company?
Yes. We inspect the system and produce a report with grease readings, photos and any inaccessible areas. It’s set out for your insurer or broker.
Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
- Mention new equipment or longer hours at the next test
- Diary the next grease test and clean
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can quote to do it.
Keep all TR19 records together so the history is easy to show.
What TR19 inspection looks like in Blewbury
About 49 miles out from central London, Blewbury is part of the South East area we work across. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. Blewbury is covered by Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Blewbury Endowed Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Michael or anywhere around Blewbury, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Blewbury
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
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 each one has its own record.
Signs you need TR19 inspection in Blewbury
Records can go missing when a business changes hands or contractors. Without them, nobody knows how much grease is in the system or when it was last cleaned.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
- Checking the result of a recent clean
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Blewbury (Brightwell Manor is about 4.1 miles north-east), fitting access panels needs care.

Why deal with it now?
After an incident, an insurer can ask to see proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection. Without them, a claim can be reduced or refused. Getting an inspection done now starts that paper trail. In a place like Blewbury, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
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 go through it with you.
