TR19 Inspection in Hazeley
We cover Hazeley for TR19 inspections and grease testing. Out-of-hours visits, a fixed quote and a written report with pictures on every job.
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
How the job changes from site to site
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
We test between services, early in the morning or after close so the kitchen keeps cooking.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Education kitchens need TR19 inspections like any other. Testing shows whether the interval suits.
TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Hazeley
A pre-clean survey looks at the whole system, from canopy to discharge. We check where the access panels are and whether every section can be reached, and grease readings are taken at set points. If you have systems that need surveying before cleaning and kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings, we can put it right, from pre-clean surveys, wet film thickness tests and deposit thickness tests onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Hazeley, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
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, and we are fully insured.

What staff can safely do
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
When something else is needed
TR19 inspection cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Post-clean checks
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Wet film thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Insurer audits
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Keep to the recommended interval
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans
The audit report is set out to pass straight to your insurer or broker, with readings, photos and any areas not accessible.
Revisit the cleaning interval whenever the menu or hours change. Fresh readings show whether it needs to change.
Do you need TR19 inspection in Hazeley?
Grease is fuel. A flare-up on the range can be drawn into the canopy and duct, and from there a fire can spread through the ductwork. Knowing how much there is lets you act before it becomes a hazard.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Mattingley Church or elsewhere in Hazeley, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Grease, kitchens and Hazeley
Food Standards Agency records list about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hazeley. Each kitchen extract among them can be measured for grease to set the right cleaning interval. Hazeley is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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. Environmental health officers from Hart council inspect food businesses in Hazeley. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Hazeley (Stratfield Saye House is about 3.1 miles north-west), fitting access panels needs care. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Fleet Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Hazeley, about 4.6 miles south-east.

Questions from Hazeley
Which fire service covers Hazeley?
Fire safety enforcement in Hazeley is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you cover smaller places like Hazeley?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Hazeley included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
What should I send you?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few photos and any previous report.
Do we have to follow TR19 by law?
No. It’s the benchmark rather than the law. In practice, an insurer can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of TR19 cleaning, so following it is the sensible course.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
Post-clean verification is a check after a clean, with fresh grease readings and pictures. It works whoever carried out the clean.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where necessary. A fixed quote follows.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
The process
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Hazeley.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
- You get a report with readings, photos and recommendations.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
