TR19 inspection in Burchett's Green
Taking on a kitchen in Burchett's Green with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. We survey the system, measure the grease and tell you what needs doing, so the next step is based on facts. Typical jobs include insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning and confirming a clean reached the whole system, across post-clean checks, wet film thickness tests and deposit thickness tests.
Work in a small place like Burchett's Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Different parts, different methods
Vertical risers
Vertical risers take the extract up through the floors. Grease can run down and collect at the base, so we check there.
Horizontal duct runs
Flat duct runs collect grease along their base. Readings are taken along each run through its access panels.
Common questions in Burchett's Green
Do you work overnight in Burchett's Green?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Burchett's Green?
Fire safety enforcement in Burchett's Green is handled by Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Is Burchett's Green in your area?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, and that includes Burchett's Green.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Can you inspect our extract for our insurance company?
Yes, anywhere in the area we cover. Share the insurer’s request so the report addresses it.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Windsor and Maidenhead. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep the route to access panels clear
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- File every inspection report with your certificates
Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. Fitting them before the next clean means the whole system gets done.
Keep filters clean and in place. Missing or damaged filters let grease straight into the plenum.
How the visit works
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Burchett's Green, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen isn’t busy.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points by WFTT or DTT.
- We photograph the test points and record any sections we can’t reach.
- The findings go into a report with readings, photos and a recommended next clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Clear the space around the work
Getting a quote
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Related advice
Do you need TR19 inspection in Burchett's Green?
You cannot judge grease thickness by eye. Clean filters can hide a heavy layer behind them, so readings are the reliable guide.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Burchett's Green is St Mark's Hospital, about 2 miles east.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- When the next visit should be, and why
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- What hours they’ll be on site
Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Burchett's Green
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The times the site is available
- What state the system is in
- How big the system is
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The postcode and the type of business
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- The legal duty, which stays with the responsible person
- Design faults in the extract system
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Burchett's Green kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 4 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Burchett's Green. Where they cook under a canopy, a grease reading is the way to tell whether the extract is due a clean. It’s Windsor and Maidenhead council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Burchett's Green. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Burchett's Green. 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.
Historic houses near Burchett's Green, such as Harleyford Manor about 2.1 miles north, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Saint John the Evangelist or elsewhere in Burchett's Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
