How we price TR19 inspection
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
How we handle TR19 inspection in New Marston
BESA sets minimum cleaning intervals by daily use: every 3 months for heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day, every 6 months for moderate use of 6 to 12 hours, and every 12 months for light use of 2 to 6 hours. Those are minimums, and grease readings help set the real interval. If you’re dealing with surveys needed before quoting a full clean and kitchens taken over with no cleaning records, we can help.
For a smaller kitchen near New Marston, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

What the work involves, part by part
Canopy and plenum
The plenum behind the filters can carry a lot of grease. Readings and pictures are taken in the plenum on every inspection.
Vertical risers
Vertical risers take the extract up through the floors. Grease can run down and collect at the base, so we check there.

What else we do in New Marston
Signs you need TR19 inspection in New Marston
You can’t judge grease thickness by eye. Clean filters can hide a heavy layer behind them, which is why readings matter.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Sites with gaps in their extract records
- Sections of duct that can’t be reached
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
Church and community hall kitchens, near Saint Michael and All Angels or anywhere around New Marston, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

When it’s something else
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:

- Design faults in the extract system
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean

Common questions in New Marston
Can you come to New Marston after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in New Marston keeps running as normal. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around New Marston out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 82 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of New Marston, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will fit the work in.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What is a WFTT or DTT grease test?
Readings are taken using the Wet Film Thickness Test or the Deposit Thickness Test, then compare them with the TR19® Grease figures.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
Do you cover New Marston?
Yes. New Marston is part of the area we cover, as part of our area across London and the South East.
How much does TR19 inspection cost in New Marston?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before work begins.
What your team can do, and what needs us
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is 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 grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
- Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections cannot be reached, so grease isn’t left building in hidden parts.
Kitchen extracts in New Marston
The FSA’s data shows about 88 pubs and bars and about 12 hotels and B&Bs registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of New Marston. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Kitchens in New Marston get their food hygiene inspections from Oxford City council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fire safety in New Marston falls to Oxfordshire 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.
For schools such as St Michael's CofE Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Holywell Manor, about 0.7 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses near New Marston; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.
