FAQs for Eton
Which environmental health team covers Eton?
Food hygiene inspections in Eton are carried out by Windsor and Maidenhead council. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Can the work in Eton be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Eton can fit around your hours. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
How much does TR19 inspection cost in Eton?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before any work starts.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it does not spread.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
About our TR19 inspection in Eton
Taking on a kitchen in Eton with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. We survey the system, measure the grease and tell you what needs doing, before any cleaning is booked. The work covers pre-clean surveys, wet film thickness tests and post-clean checks, and people most often call us about systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements and kitchens taken over with no cleaning records.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
- Flag oily drips near the extract
Where sections couldn’t be reached, the report says where access panels would help. With panels fitted, the next clean can cover every section.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Eton run smoothly.
- 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.
- Grease readings are taken and photos recorded.
- 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
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Eton kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 197 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 40 takeaways in and around Eton, up to about a mile and a half out. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. Eton is covered by Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. 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. Kitchens in Eton get their food hygiene inspections from Windsor and Maidenhead council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
A hospital like Upton Hospital, about 1.1 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Eton Porny CofE First School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Where a hall near Church of Saint John the Evangelist, or anywhere in Eton, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
Eton is about 1 mile north-east of Windsor, in Windsor and Maidenhead. Whatever kind of site you run in Eton, TR19 inspection is something we can help with.

The closest station to Eton is Windsor & Eton Riverside station, roughly 0.5 miles south of the centre.

What the work involves, part by part
Canopy and plenum
The canopy itself is checked inside and out, with readings where grease collects.
Horizontal duct runs
Grease settles on the floor of horizontal ducts as the air cools. Readings are taken along each run through its access panels.
What affects the quote in Eton
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The times the site is available
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
What we need to know
We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:
- A few general shots of the system
- The site address and the type of premises
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos 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. You’ll typically have a quote within one working day.
Leave it or put it right?
Post-clean verification shows whether the system was left the way the certificate says, while there’s still time to put anything right. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Eton is calmer for everyone.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what TR19 inspection will not do:
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- Installation problems, which fall under design guidance such as DW172
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly before booking.
