Your questions about TR19 inspection in Lambourn Woodlands
Do you work overnight in Lambourn Woodlands?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Lambourn Woodlands doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you work in villages like Lambourn Woodlands?
Yes. Lambourn Woodlands is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
How far ahead should we book?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes, for kitchens across the South East and London. Share the insurer’s request so the report addresses it.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that can’t wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
At what point does grease need cleaning?
TR19® Grease says grease should not go over a mean of 200 microns between cleans. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning.
How we handle TR19 inspection in Lambourn Woodlands
Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. Some kitchens build up grease faster than the minimum intervals assume, and only measurement shows it. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. The work covers insurer audits, pre-clean surveys and post-clean checks, and common reasons people get in touch are kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings and systems that need surveying before cleaning.
In a village or hamlet like Lambourn Woodlands, 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.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Leave it or put it right?
A check after cleaning shows whether the work reached every part it should have, before the next clean is due. In a small place like Lambourn Woodlands, a system that fails can take a site out of use.

Keeping the system healthy
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
- Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
Part by part
Horizontal duct runs
Grease can gather thickly at bends and along long runs, out of sight of the kitchen.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Kitchens that cook for long hours build up grease faster. Regular testing shows whether the cleaning interval keeps up.
Kitchen extracts in Lambourn Woodlands
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 4 restaurants, cafés and canteens in Lambourn Woodlands and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. For any of them with a canopy, measuring grease is better than guessing when to clean. Lambourn Woodlands sits within the area of Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. In Lambourn Woodlands, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from West Berkshire council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.

Common problems we fix in Lambourn Woodlands
When a site in Lambourn Woodlands changes owner or cleaning contractor, the records don’t always follow. With no history, the current state of the extract is a guess.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Sites with gaps in their extract records
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Mary's Church or elsewhere in Lambourn Woodlands, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Before booking anyone
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- If they look at the system before pricing
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
How the visit works
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Lambourn Woodlands.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen isn’t busy.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
- We send a report setting out the readings, pictures and next steps.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

How we price TR19 inspection
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- The size of the system
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The times the site is available
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Multi-site and managed buildings
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
