TR19 inspections and grease testing in Hailey, Oxfordshire
Our technicians work in Hailey on TR19 inspections and grease testing. Fixed quotes, work around your opening hours and photo reports on every job.
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
What we are called out for in Hailey
As hot, greasy air travels up the duct, it cools and leaves a film behind. It often collects where nobody can see it: the plenum, bends and horizontal runs.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St John the Evangelist or elsewhere in Hailey, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Hailey
Taking on a kitchen in Hailey with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. You get readings, pictures and a clear view of what’s needed, so the next step is based on facts. The work covers access surveys, wet film thickness tests and pre-clean surveys, and the jobs we see most are heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts and extracts that have never been grease tested.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
A written report with photos follows every visit, 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.

Hailey kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 3 pubs and bars within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hailey. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. It’s West Oxfordshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hailey. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Hailey falls to Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Hailey (Minster Lovell Hall is about 1.9 miles south-west), fitting access panels needs care. School kitchens, at schools like Hailey Church of England Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
Hailey is about 2 miles north of Witney, in Oxfordshire. For TR19 inspection in and around Hailey, it’s easy to get a fixed quote: please call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Hailey
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
How the visit works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Hailey, let us know and we will plan around it.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- The same access points are opened up.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

When it’s something else
TR19 inspection can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- A faulty or failing extract fan
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
- Design faults in the extract system
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Hailey questions
Which environmental health team covers Hailey?
That’s West Oxfordshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Hailey. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Hailey out of term?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Hailey. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your term dates and we will plan around them.
How long does grease testing take?
An inspection takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Large or multiple systems take longer, so give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will plan it.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
