What TR19 inspection looks like in Cole Henley
We cover Cole Henley, about 56 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site. Cole Henley sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Whether the kitchen is in Cole Henley itself or nearby, a TR19® clean covers the whole system, canopy to discharge. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Testbourne Community School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

How we handle TR19 inspection in Cole Henley
A fixed schedule does not always match how a kitchen really cooks. In a busy kitchen, grease can build faster than the minimum intervals allow for, which is why measurement matters. We give your risk assessment measured figures rather than guesses. Typical jobs include confirming a clean reached the whole system and sites with gaps in their extract records, across access surveys, deposit thickness tests and pre-clean surveys.
Work in a small place like Cole Henley 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.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Different parts, different methods
Canopy and plenum
The plenum behind the filters can carry a lot of grease. Readings and pictures are taken in the plenum as part of every survey.
Extract fan and discharge
The extract fan and its housing collect grease too. They’re included in the readings and pictures.
How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. Visits to a village like Cole Henley are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Ask for a quote
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.
Advice
Managing agents and facilities teams in Cole Henley
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.

Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Flag oily drips near the extract
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
After the inspection, we send a report showing each reading, its location and pictures. Keep it with your fire safety and TR19 records.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so the history is easy to show.
How we price TR19 inspection
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- The size of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- A few general shots of the system
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Quotes are quick. 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.
Common questions in Cole Henley
Can you come to Cole Henley after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Cole Henley does not have to lose a day’s trading. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Cole Henley?
That’s Basingstoke and Deane council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Cole Henley. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
What is grease thickness testing?
Grease thickness testing measures the layer of grease on the duct surfaces, by WFTT or DTT. The results are given in microns.
How long does grease testing take?
An inspection takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Sites with several canopies take longer, and you can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email to book it in.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
What accreditations do you have?
We’re 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 TR19 inspection can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
- A faulty or failing extract fan
- Design faults in the extract system
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
