How we handle TR19 inspection in North Newington
A fixed schedule doesn’t always match how a kitchen really cooks. In a busy kitchen, grease can build faster than the minimum intervals allow for, which is why measurement matters. We give your risk assessment measured figures rather than guesses. The work covers post-clean checks, pre-clean surveys and deposit thickness tests, and the jobs we see most are extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean and uncertainty over how often to clean.
Work in a small place like North Newington starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.

Advice
North Newington kitchens: local notes
Look up North Newington on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of North Newington. Each kitchen extract among them can be measured for grease to set the right cleaning interval. North Newington sits within the area of Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. In North Newington, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Cherwell council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
For schools such as Bishop Carpenter Church of England Aided Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Broughton Castle is about 1 mile south), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The scale of the work
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any previous report or certificate
- The site address and the type of premises
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- Diary the next grease test and clean
If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can arrange it.
Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Missing or damaged filters let grease straight into the plenum.
North Newington: your questions answered
Who is the fire and rescue service for North Newington?
It’s Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers North Newington. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around North Newington out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. With about 5 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of North Newington, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Do you cover North Newington?
Yes. We cover North Newington and the rest of Oxfordshire, as part of our work across South East England and London. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Every site has its own report.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Can the work be done while we’re closed?
Yes. Evenings, nights and weekends are normal working hours for us, so you do not have to close during trading.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
Why survey before a clean?
We check the layout, the grease levels and the access, so the clean goes to plan. Any access problems are flagged ahead of the clean.
What the work involves, part by part
Canopy and plenum
The plenum behind the filters can carry a lot of grease. We take readings there and photograph it on every inspection.
Horizontal duct runs
If a run has no access panel, we note it so it can be fixed before the clean.
What we are called out for in North Newington
Not every section of a kitchen extract is easy to get to, and grease can be missed there clean after clean. An inspection of a system in North Newington shows where access panels are missing, so panels can be fitted.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary the Virgin, or anywhere in North Newington, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
What to look for in a quote
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- What hours they’ll be on site
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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 can diagnose it and quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
