Fisher's Pond questions
Who inspects food businesses in Fisher's Pond?
Food hygiene inspections in Fisher's Pond are carried out by Winchester City council. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Do you work at weekends in Fisher's Pond?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Fisher's Pond doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
What is a WFTT or DTT grease test?
WFTT and DTT are the two methods for measuring grease thickness, in microns. Readings are taken at set points through the system.
What grease levels does TR19 allow?
Two figures matter: a mean of no more than 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns at any single point, which needs immediate spot cleaning. We show your readings against those figures.
Which accreditations do you hold?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
We suggest a next test date in every report, taking the readings and the kitchen’s hours into account. A risk assessment based on measured grease should set the interval.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
How we handle TR19 inspection in Fisher's Pond
Think of a TR19 inspection as the diagnosis before the treatment. Readings, pictures and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. The work covers pre-clean surveys, access surveys and deposit thickness tests, and common reasons people get in touch are kitchens whose menu or hours have changed and parts of the system left out of past cleans.
Work in a small place like Fisher's Pond starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What TR19 inspection looks like in Fisher's Pond
The Food Standards Agency lists about 4 bars, pubs and nightclubs as registered food businesses in Fisher's Pond and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Fisher's Pond. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. It’s Winchester City council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Fisher's Pond. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (South Stoneham House is about 4.6 miles south-west), access may need planning. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of the Holy Trinity or elsewhere in Fisher's Pond, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Other services in Fisher's Pond
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
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.
Honest limits
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what TR19 inspection will not do:
- Mechanical faults in the extract
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Where we work
- Post-clean checks
- Wet film thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Insurer audits
Do you need TR19 inspection in Fisher's Pond?
Menus, opening hours and cooking styles change over time, and more frying or longer hours mean more grease. A cleaning interval set years ago may no longer fit.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Sites with gaps in their extract records
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Moorgreen Hospital about 4.1 miles south, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
What your quote should include
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether they’re fully insured

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Fisher's Pond and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First we book a time that will not disrupt cooking.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points by WFTT or DTT.
- We photograph the test points and record any sections we cannot reach.
- We send a report setting out the readings, pictures and next steps.
Before we arrive
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Get a fixed quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Flag oily drips near the extract
- Never cook with filters missing
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
You get a report with the grease readings, where they were taken and photos of each point. File it alongside your TR19 certificates.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
