TR19 inspection in Cockpole Green
Insurance policies often require evidence of TR19® cleaning and inspection. Missing records can lead to a claim being reduced or refused. A TR19 audit sets out the system’s condition, with readings and photos, for sites in Cockpole Green and the rest of Wokingham. If you’re dealing with kitchens taken over with no cleaning records and systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements, we can put it right.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. 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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Report grease dripping from the canopy
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
For an insurer audit, send them the report as it is, with readings, photos and any areas not accessible.
Test grease regularly instead of relying on the calendar. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Wokingham. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- How many systems or sites are involved
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition of the system
Several systems or sites on one quote 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
What to send for a quote:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
Common problems we fix in Cockpole Green
When a site in Cockpole Green changes owner or cleaning contractor, the records do not always follow. Without them, nobody knows how much grease is in the system or when it was last cleaned.
Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Sites with gaps in their extract records
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Paul's Mission Church or elsewhere in Cockpole Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether the price is fixed
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Access surveys
- Wet film thickness tests
- Deposit thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Post-clean checks
- Insurer audits
What we do, step by step
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. From there, it takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Cockpole Green can be planned properly.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

Kitchen extracts in Cockpole Green
Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Cockpole Green. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. In Cockpole Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Windsor and Maidenhead council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Crazies Hill CofE Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Harleyford Manor is about 2.7 miles north-east), access may need planning.
