TR19 inspection in Fyfield
Under TR19® Grease, the mean grease thickness should stay at or below 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. If you have missing access panels found on survey and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean, we can help, from pre-clean surveys, post-clean checks and insurer audits onwards.
Work in a small place like Fyfield 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.
Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How the visit works
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. The visit takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Somewhere as small as Fyfield, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- The same access points are opened up.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Clear the space around the work
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Why it’s worth doing now in Fyfield
Surveying first means the clean goes to plan. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, so the clean covers the whole system. In a place like Fyfield, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Fyfield: your questions answered
Which fire authority looks after Fyfield?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Fyfield. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Fyfield?
The local authority for Fyfield is Test Valley council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: 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.
How much time does an inspection need?
It takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. We fit it around when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
What the work involves, part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Inspections are planned around mealtimes and holidays to avoid disruption.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
A kitchen running from breakfast to late service builds grease quickly. Readings show if the cleans are frequent enough.
Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Never cook with filters missing
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. With panels fitted, the next clean can cover every section.
Regular grease readings keep the cleaning interval honest. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.
What your team can do, and what needs us
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.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
TR19 inspection around Fyfield
Environmental health officers from Test Valley council inspect food businesses in Fyfield. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fyfield is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Nicholas, or anywhere in Fyfield, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. A hospital like Andover War Memorial Hospital, about 3.7 miles east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
Fyfield is about 4 miles west of Andover, in Hampshire.
