About our TR19 inspection in Meonstoke
A pre-clean survey looks at the whole system, from canopy to discharge. We check where the access panels are and whether every section can be reached, and record grease readings at set points. If you have systems that need surveying before cleaning and missing access panels found on survey, we can put it right.
For a kitchen in or near Meonstoke, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, 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 every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Diary the next grease test and clean
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
The report recommends when the system should next be cleaned and tested, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used.
Regular grease readings keep the cleaning interval honest. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.
What happens on the day
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Visits to a village like Meonstoke are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- Grease readings are taken again at set points.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Advice
What the work involves, part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
In healthcare and care settings, kitchens may run from early until late. Readings show if cleaning is frequent enough.
Extract fan and discharge
We look at where the extract discharges outside, as grease can build up there too.
TR19 inspection in Meonstoke: the local picture
Food Standards Agency records list about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Meonstoke. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. The fire and rescue service for Meonstoke is 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. It’s Winchester City council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Meonstoke. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Historic houses near Meonstoke, such as Hinton Ampner House about 4.8 miles north, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Andrew or anywhere around Meonstoke, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Meonstoke Church of England Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What affects the quote in Meonstoke
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How big the system is
- The condition we find in the survey
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
What happens if it’s left?
Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. Somewhere as small as Meonstoke, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
