What the work involves, part by part

Extract fan and discharge
The extract fan and its housing collect grease too. We check and test them as part of the inspection.
TR19 inspection in Boyn Hill
Grease thickness testing tells you how much grease is sitting in the canopy, ducts and fan. Readings are taken at set points using the Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or the Deposit Thickness Test (DTT). The results show whether the system needs cleaning and how soon. The work covers deposit thickness tests, post-clean checks and insurer audits, and the jobs we see most are cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen and ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits.
For a smaller kitchen near Boyn Hill, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

FAQs for Boyn Hill
Which environmental health team covers Boyn Hill?
Food hygiene inspections in Boyn Hill are carried out by Windsor and Maidenhead council. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Can the work in Boyn Hill be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
How much does TR19 inspection cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.
What accreditations do you have?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Can you quote from photos?
In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
What grease levels does TR19 allow?
TR19® Grease says the mean shouldn’t exceed 200 microns between cleans, and anywhere at 500 microns or more needs spot cleaning right away.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
Post-clean verification is a check after a clean, with fresh grease readings and photos. It works whoever carried out the clean.
Boyn Hill kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 17 pubs, bars and clubs and about 6 hotels and guest houses as registered food businesses in Boyn Hill and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. The fire and rescue service for Boyn Hill is Royal Berkshire 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. It’s Windsor and Maidenhead council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Boyn Hill. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Mark's Hospital (about 1 mile north), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Larchfield Primary and Nursery School or anywhere near Boyn Hill, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near All Saints' Church or elsewhere in Boyn Hill, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

How we price TR19 inspection
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition of the system
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The site address and the type of premises
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Why act early in Boyn Hill
Finding a hotspot early means a targeted spot clean rather than a bigger problem later. Left alone, grease keeps building between cleans. Booking ahead lets us plan the trip to Boyn Hill at a time that suits you.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, 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.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What TR19 inspection cannot fix
TR19 inspection can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- Post-clean checks
- Wet film thickness tests
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Pre-clean surveys

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. A site near Boyn Hill normally has room to park, so the questions are about access to the system and your hours.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
