TR19 inspection in Lord's Wood
Grease thickness testing tells you how much grease is sitting in the canopy, ducts and fan. We use the Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or the Deposit Thickness Test (DTT), taking readings at set points. From the numbers, you can see whether cleaning is due. The work covers post-clean checks, deposit thickness tests and wet film thickness tests, and common reasons people get in touch are checking the result of a recent clean and an insurer’s request for a TR19 audit.
Somewhere as small as Lord's Wood, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

TR19 inspection around Lord's Wood
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 9 bars, pubs and nightclubs within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Lord's Wood. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Food hygiene inspections in Lord's Wood are the job of Winchester City council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fire safety in Lord's Wood falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (South Stoneham House is about 4.1 miles south-west), access may need planning. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Mary's Church or elsewhere in Lord's Wood, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
Lord's Wood is about 2 miles north-east of Eastleigh, in Hampshire.

What happens if it’s left?
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 Lord's Wood, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
- Diary the next grease test and clean
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
What a clean won’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- A faulty or failing extract fan
- Design faults in the extract system
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Parts of the system we cover
- Wet film thickness tests
- Insurer audits
- Access surveys
- Deposit thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Post-clean checks
What happens on the day
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Visits to a village like Lord's Wood are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Getting a quote
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

What we’re called out for in Lord's Wood

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Moorgreen Hospital is the nearest hospital to Lord's Wood, about 4.1 miles south.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether VAT is included
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours

Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes. Insurers often want evidence the extract is managed to TR19®, and an audit report gives you that, with recommendations where something needs doing.
Is Lord's Wood in your area?
Yes. Lord's Wood is part of the area we cover, within the South East and London area we cover.
What affects the quote in Lord's Wood
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
