TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Glympton
TR19® Grease says grease should not exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. Testing is how you know where your system stands. If you’re dealing with parts of the system left out of past cleans and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean, we can help, from pre-clean surveys, access surveys and wet film thickness tests onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Glympton, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Why deal with it now?
If a kitchen in Glympton has been cleaned on the same calendar for years, there’s no way to know if that interval is right without measuring. Testing gives you the evidence to set it properly. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
Why book with us
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- Every visit written up, with pictures
- Every job surveyed first

Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. With panels fitted, the next clean can cover every section.
Test grease regularly instead of relying on the calendar. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.
What we do, step by step
Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the TR19 inspection, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. In a small place like Glympton, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- Grease readings are taken and photos recorded.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Move anything stored near the system

Different parts, different methods
Extract fan and discharge
The extract fan and its housing collect grease too. They’re included in the readings and photos.
Horizontal duct runs
Flat duct runs collect grease along their base. Readings are taken along each run through its access panels.
What affects the quote in Glympton
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Questions from Glympton
Do you work overnight in Glympton?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Glympton can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Glympton?
Fire safety enforcement in Glympton is handled by Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.
Is TR19 cleaning the law?
No. TR19® is a specification, not a statute. Without TR19 records, an insurance claim can be reduced or refused, so it matters in practice.
What do you do to protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Do you work in Glympton?
Yes. We cover Glympton and the rest of Oxfordshire, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Do you check other contractors’ cleans?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, if we can see what we need. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Common problems we fix in Glympton
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.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Glympton, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
What your quote should include
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
What TR19 inspection looks like in Glympton
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Glympton. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Environmental health officers from West Oxfordshire council inspect food businesses in Glympton. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
