TR19 inspection in Deane
Under TR19® Grease, the mean grease thickness should stay at or below 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. Grease testing shows which side of those lines you’re on. The work covers pre-clean surveys, insurer audits and access surveys, and the jobs we see most are missing TR19 certificates or history and systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements.
Work in a small place like Deane starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Grease, kitchens and Deane
Deane is covered by 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. At about 51 miles from central London, Deane sits well inside the area we cover. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
A hospital like Park Prewett Hospital, about 4.8 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
Deane is about 5 miles west of Basingstoke, in Hampshire. We provide TR19 inspection for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Deane and the rest of Hampshire. Our Hampshire coverage runs to 683 places, Deane among them. Our Reading page covers sites nearby (17 miles or so).
Work in RG25 follows the same survey, fixed quote and written report as everywhere else we cover.

Signs you need TR19 inspection in Deane
Kitchens change: a new menu, longer hours or more frying can all add grease. The old cleaning schedule may not match the kitchen any more.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Sections of duct that can’t be reached
- Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
- Sites with gaps in their extract records
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Deane, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
What to look for in a quote
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- What hours they’ll be on site
Why act early in Deane
Surveying first means the clean goes to plan. Access problems are spotted in advance rather than on the night, and the quote reflects the real job. Planning a trip to Deane ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Honest limits
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Hidden runs that need access panels first
- A faulty or failing extract fan
- The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Other services in Deane
Multi-site and managed buildings
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Deane and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
The process
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. The timing of a visit to Deane is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- 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.
- Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
How to prepare
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Find the previous report, if there is one
How to get a quote
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 we can price many jobs without a visit.

How the job changes from site to site
Canopy and plenum
The plenum behind the filters can carry a lot of grease. We take readings there and photograph it as part of every survey.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
We fit testing around service times and school holidays so meals aren’t affected.
Your questions about TR19 inspection in Deane
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Deane?
In Deane, it’s Basingstoke and Deane council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Which fire service covers Deane?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Deane. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
What does a pre-clean survey involve?
We survey, measure and photograph the system first. The survey can be done from photos and details or on site, whichever suits the system.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What types of premises do you cover?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
