What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition we find in the survey
- The size of the system
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
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.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The postcode and the type of business
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Breamore
If you’ve taken over a kitchen in Breamore and don’t know when the extract was last cleaned, an inspection is the place to start. You get readings, photos and a clear view of what’s needed, so the next step is based on facts. The work covers pre-clean surveys, wet film thickness tests and deposit thickness tests, and people most often call us about systems that need surveying before cleaning and heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts.
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.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What we do, step by step
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Breamore.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Questions from Breamore
Can you get to a site in Breamore?
Yes. Breamore is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Breamore during the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 4 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Breamore. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your term dates and we will plan around them.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
What should I send you?
A short description and a few pictures plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
How do you measure grease in a kitchen extract?
Readings are taken using the Wet Film Thickness Test or the Deposit Thickness Test, and set against the TR19® Grease figures.
Is TR19 cleaning the law?
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 insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.
Can the work be done while we’re closed?
Yes, and that’s how we prefer to work. We book the visit for when the area is out of use, whether that’s late evening, overnight or a weekend.
When to call us in Breamore
As hot, greasy air travels up the duct, it cools and leaves a film behind. It often collects where nobody can see it: the plenum, bends and horizontal runs.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- Checking the result of a recent clean
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Breamore House is about 1 mile north-west), access may need planning.

Grease, kitchens and Breamore
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 3 pubs, bars and clubs across Breamore and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Environmental health officers from New Forest council inspect food businesses in Breamore. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Breamore. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
For schools such as Breamore Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Where a hall near St Boniface, or anywhere in Breamore, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by TR19 inspection, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not put right:
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
- Mechanical faults in the extract
- Hidden runs that need access panels first
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Where we work
- Post-clean checks
- Pre-clean surveys
- Insurer audits
- Wet film thickness tests
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
The report recommends when the system should next be cleaned and tested, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used.
Keep all TR19 records together so you can produce them quickly.
What your team can do, and what needs us
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.
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. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
