How we price TR19 inspection
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- What state the system is in
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll explain what it covers.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall

How we handle TR19 inspection in Jealott's Hill
Post-clean verification is a check carried out once the cleaning is done, with fresh grease readings, pictures and a look at the areas that were cleaned. It shows whether the system was left in the condition the paperwork describes. Common call-outs are for systems that need surveying before cleaning and ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits, across access surveys, insurer audits and deposit thickness tests.
In a village or hamlet like Jealott's Hill, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Grease, kitchens and Jealott's Hill
It’s Bracknell Forest council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Jealott's Hill. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Jealott's Hill sits within the area of Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Heatherwood Hospital (about 4.1 miles south-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (St Leonard's Hill is about 4.5 miles east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

When to call us in Jealott's Hill
When a site in Jealott's Hill changes owner or cleaning contractor, the records do not always follow. With no history, the current state of the extract is a guess.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Missing access panels found on survey
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Michael and All Angels or anywhere around Jealott's Hill, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
What your quote should include
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- Whether they recommend a next date
Your questions about TR19 inspection in Jealott's Hill
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Jealott's Hill?
That’s Bracknell Forest council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Jealott's Hill. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Will you come out to Jealott's Hill?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
How much time does an inspection need?
An inspection takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. Large or multiple systems take longer, and you can call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form to book it in.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
Often enough to know the mean stays under 200 microns between cleans. The readings themselves tell you if the interval needs to change.
Is TR19 cleaning the law?
No, TR19® is not legislation. The Fire Safety Order 2005 still requires the responsible person to manage fire risk, and grease in the extract is part of that. Many insurance policies also require TR19 adherence.
How far ahead should we book?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes normally come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What the work involves, part by part
Extract fan and discharge
Grease on the fan adds to wear. The inspection shows whether it needs cleaning now.
Vertical risers
Vertical risers take the extract up through the floors. Grease can run down and collect at the base, so the base is a key test point.

What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, which takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Jealott's Hill can be planned properly.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know about parking and loading

Advice
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on in Jealott's Hill
- Insurer audits
- Post-clean checks
- Pre-clean surveys
- Deposit thickness tests
- Wet film thickness tests
- Access surveys
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. Fitting them before the next clean means the whole system gets done.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections can’t be reached, so every part of the duct can be cleaned.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
