Grease, kitchens and Fewcott
Fewcott is covered by Oxfordshire 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. It’s Cherwell council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Fewcott. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Fewcott is Bicester Community Hospital, about 4.2 miles south-east. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Mary or anywhere around Fewcott, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
Fewcott is about 4 miles north-west of Bicester, in Oxfordshire. We provide TR19 inspection for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Fewcott and the rest of Oxfordshire.

About our TR19 inspection in Fewcott
TR19® Grease says grease should not exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, while a reading of 500 microns or more anywhere calls for immediate spot cleaning. Testing is how you know where your system stands. The work covers pre-clean surveys, deposit thickness tests and post-clean checks, and people most often call us about post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean and an insurer’s request for a TR19 audit.
For a kitchen in or near Fewcott, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Fewcott and across Oxfordshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
How the visit works
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Visits to a village like Fewcott are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- The same access points are opened up.
- Grease readings are taken again at set points.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
How to prepare
- Clear the space around the work
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

FAQs for Fewcott
Do you work in villages like Fewcott?
Yes, Fewcott is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can the work in Fewcott be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Fewcott needn’t be disturbed. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
What do you do with what you remove?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.
How much does TR19 inspection cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll typically reply within one working day.
Is TR19 cleaning the law?
No. TR19® is not law; it’s BESA’s specification. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which requires the responsible person to reduce fire risk, and TR19® is what insurers and fire officers look to.
Can you inspect our extract for our insurance company?
Yes. We inspect the system and produce a report with grease readings, pictures and any inaccessible areas. It’s set out for your insurer or broker.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
Can you quote from pictures?
Often, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Fewcott
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- How big the system is
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Any permits to work or inductions
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any previous report or certificate
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos 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.
What your team can do, and what needs us
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.

What TR19 inspection cannot fix
TR19 inspection can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- Mechanical faults in the extract
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Pre-clean surveys
- Insurer audits
- Post-clean checks
- Wet film thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Deposit thickness tests
Why act early in Fewcott
If there’s a fire or a claim, your insurer may ask for TR19 records. Missing records can put a claim at risk. An up-to-date inspection report is a good place to start. In a place like Fewcott, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us

Extract fan and discharge
We look at where the extract discharges outside, as grease can build up there too.
Canopy and plenum
The canopy itself is checked inside and out, with readings where grease collects.
