About our TR19 inspection in Mapledurwell
A pre-clean survey looks at the whole system, from canopy to discharge. Access is checked along the full length, and record grease readings at set points. The work covers access surveys, pre-clean surveys and deposit thickness tests, and people most often call us about pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean and insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning.
Work in a small place like Mapledurwell starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Mapledurwell?
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. Measuring it is the first step to keeping it under control.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Checking the result of a recent clean
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
The Vyne, about 4.4 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses near Mapledurwell; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.
Before booking anyone

- If they look at the system before pricing
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Why it’s worth doing now in Mapledurwell
If there’s a fire or a claim, your insurer may ask for TR19 records. Missing records can put a claim at risk. Getting an inspection done now starts that paper trail. It’s simpler to plan the work at Mapledurwell now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

What TR19 inspection looks like in Mapledurwell
Food Standards Agency data counts about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in Mapledurwell 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. Environmental health officers from Basingstoke and Deane council inspect food businesses in Mapledurwell. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Mapledurwell sits within the area of 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.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital about 4.2 miles west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Where a hall near Church of St. Mary, or anywhere in Mapledurwell, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

- The same access points are opened up.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.

Between visits
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- Keep the route to access panels clear
The audit report is set out to pass straight to your insurer or broker, with readings, photos and any areas not accessible.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
