TR19 inspection in Little Barrington
After a clean, post-clean verification checks the result, with fresh grease readings, photos and a look at the areas that were cleaned. It gives you evidence of how the system was actually left. If you have an insurer’s request for a TR19 audit and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean, we can help, from wet film thickness tests, pre-clean surveys and post-clean checks onwards.
In a small place like Little Barrington, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What the work involves, part by part
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Heavy use under BESA guidance, 12 to 16 hours a day, means a clean at least every 3 months, with testing showing whether more is needed.
Canopy and plenum
The canopy itself is checked inside and out, with readings where grease collects.
How it works
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Little Barrington.
- First we book a time that won’t disrupt cooking.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
- You get a report with readings, photos and recommendations.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

What happens if it’s left?
Finding a hotspot early means a targeted spot clean rather than a bigger problem later. Left alone, grease keeps building between cleans. With notice, the visit to Little Barrington can be fitted around your bookings and events.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

TR19 inspection around Little Barrington
Kitchens in Little Barrington get their food hygiene inspections from West Oxfordshire council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Fire safety in Little Barrington 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.
A hospital like Moore Cottage Hospital, about 5.7 miles north-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Burford School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Little Barrington
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- The number of sites or systems

- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
FAQs for Little Barrington
Can you work in Little Barrington outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.
Will you come out to Little Barrington?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Little Barrington included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What does TR19 inspection cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before we start.
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.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What about areas you can’t get to?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
Each report recommends when to test and clean next, taking the readings and the kitchen’s hours into account. The interval should come from a competent person’s risk assessment backed by grease measurement.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.

What we’re called out for in Little Barrington
Grease in a duct is flammable 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. Measuring it is the first step to keeping it under control.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Peter, or anywhere in Little Barrington, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
