Oxfordshire · TR19 inspections and grease testing
Brighthampton TR19 inspection
Our technicians work in Brighthampton on TR19 inspections and grease testing. Fixed quotes, work around your opening hours and photo reports on every job.
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
For landlords and multi-site operators
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
TR19 inspection in Brighthampton
A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. Readings, pictures and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. The work covers pre-clean surveys, insurer audits and wet film thickness tests, and the jobs we see most are kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
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.

Why it’s worth doing now in Brighthampton
Do not wait for an EHO visit or insurance renewal to find gaps in your extract records. An inspection now gives a site in Brighthampton a current picture. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.

What TR19 inspection can’t fix
Not every problem is solved by TR19 inspection, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Design faults in the extract system
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- Post-clean checks
- Deposit thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Access surveys
- Insurer audits
- Wet film thickness tests
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How big the system is
- The times the site is available
- How easy every part is to reach
- How many systems or sites are involved
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You will have a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Visits to a village like Brighthampton are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- The same access points are opened up.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
How to get a quote
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.
Related advice
What we are called out for in Brighthampton
Menus, opening hours and cooking styles change over time, and more frying or longer hours mean more grease. The old cleaning schedule may not match the kitchen any more.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Checking the result of a recent clean
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Giles' Church or elsewhere in Brighthampton, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether they recommend a next date
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
What TR19 inspection looks like in Brighthampton
There are about 5 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Brighthampton, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Kitchens like these cook for very different hours, and grease testing shows which extracts need cleaning soonest. Brighthampton 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. It’s West Oxfordshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Brighthampton. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Historic houses near Brighthampton, such as Longworth House about 2.5 miles south, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. For schools such as Mulberry Bush School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Brighthampton: your questions answered
Will you come out to Brighthampton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Brighthampton during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. With about 2 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Brighthampton, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the dates the site is empty.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Often, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Where we can’t see enough, we arrange a survey.
How long does a TR19 inspection take?
Expect it to take around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. We fit it around when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
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.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What does a pre-clean survey involve?
A survey finds out how the system is laid out, how dirty it is and what can be reached, before anyone starts cleaning. Missing access panels are noted ahead of the clean.
