TR19 inspection in Hampton Hill, done properly
A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. Readings, photos and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. If you have systems that need surveying before cleaning and checking the result of a recent clean, we can put it right.
In a London area like Hampton Hill, a kitchen extract often passes through shared space on its way out: a riser, a service void, the floors above. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Leave it or put it right?
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, and you can only act on that if you’ve measured it. In a London building, a problem in a duct, damper or fan rarely stays in one unit.
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.

How we price TR19 inspection
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The times the site is available
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Your last certificate, test record or report
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
What a clean will not put right
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Pre-clean surveys
- Post-clean checks

Hampton Hill kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 32 pubs and bars as registered food businesses in Hampton Hill and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Fire safety in Hampton Hill falls to London Fire Brigade. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Night work suits London kitchens, and roads and loading bays tend to be quieter too.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Hampton Hill Junior School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Hampton Hill United Reformed Church, or anywhere in Hampton Hill, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Teddington Memorial Hospital (about 0.6 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

What else we do in Hampton Hill
What the work involves, part by part
Canopy and plenum
Clean-looking filters do not mean a clean plenum. That’s why we test behind them.
Vertical risers
In buildings with several floors, the riser may pass through other tenants’ space, so we arrange access ahead of time.
Hampton Hill: your questions answered
Can you come to Hampton Hill after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Hampton Hill does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can parking be tricky for a job in Hampton Hill?
Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. If the building has a loading slot system, we will book into it.
What happens on a pre-clean survey?
It’s a look at the whole extract before it’s cleaned, with readings and pictures. We can work from photos and details, or visit, as suits the job.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
How much does TR19 inspection cost in Hampton Hill?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before any work starts.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that cannot wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
What happens on the day
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. The visit takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. If your building in Hampton Hill has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- We photograph the test points and record any sections we can’t reach.
- The findings go into a report with readings, photos and a recommended next clean.
Getting ready for the visit
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
- Flag oily drips near the extract
After the inspection, we send a report showing each reading, its location and pictures. File it alongside your TR19 certificates.
Keep all TR19 records together so you can produce them quickly.
