Deddington TR19 inspection
TR19 inspection for Deddington and the surrounding area: diagnosis first, then a fixed quote, the work and a report with pictures. Ask us for a fixed quote.
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
How it works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before work begins, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. Somewhere as small as Deddington, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Getting ready for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Deddington
Insurance policies often require evidence of TR19® cleaning and inspection. Missing records can lead to a claim being reduced or refused. Our TR19 audits give sites in Deddington and across Oxfordshire a clear record of the system’s condition. The work covers post-clean checks, insurer audits and pre-clean surveys, and the jobs we see most are confirming a clean reached the whole system and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean.
In a small place like Deddington, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Hospital and care home kitchens can cook all day, every day. Readings show if cleaning is frequent enough.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Kitchens that cook for long hours build up grease faster. Regular testing shows whether the cleaning interval keeps up.
Honest limits
TR19 inspection can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not put right:
- The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Your questions about TR19 inspection in Deddington
Will you come out to Deddington?
Yes, Deddington is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Deddington?
Kitchens in Deddington are inspected by Cherwell council’s environmental health officers. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
How do you protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
How much does TR19 inspection cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.
When should we have our next grease test?
We suggest a next test date in every report, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used. The interval should come from a competent person’s risk assessment backed by grease measurement.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Typically, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
Is TR19 cleaning the law?
No. TR19® isn’t law; it’s BESA’s specification. The law is the Fire Safety Order 2005, under which the responsible person must manage fire risk, and TR19® is what insurers and fire officers look to.
Why act early in Deddington
Surveying first means the clean goes to plan. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, and the quote reflects the real job. In a place like Deddington, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

What we are called out for in Deddington
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.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Checking the result of a recent clean
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Horton General Hospital about 5 miles north, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
Comparing quotes
- Proof of insurance
- What hours they’ll be on site
- 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
Aftercare tips
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Report grease dripping from the canopy
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
Keep the verification report next to the certificate it relates to. The pair gives a clear record of the clean and the check.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections cannot be reached, so every part of the duct can be cleaned.
Grease, kitchens and Deddington
Look up Deddington on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in Deddington and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Each kitchen extract among them can be measured for grease to set the right cleaning interval. In Deddington, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Cherwell council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. The fire and rescue service for Deddington is Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in Deddington, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Broughton Castle is about 5 miles north-west), access may need planning.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
