How we handle TR19 inspection in North Warnborough
Taking on a kitchen in North Warnborough with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. You get readings, pictures and a clear view of what’s needed, before any cleaning is booked. Typical jobs include kitchens taken over with no cleaning records and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean, on access surveys, pre-clean surveys and insurer audits.
In a small place like North Warnborough, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
Where sections couldn’t be reached, the report says where access panels would help. With panels fitted, the next clean can cover every section.
When cooking hours or the menu change, check the interval still fits. A quick grease test answers the question.
What we’re called out for in North Warnborough
Some parts of a system are hard to reach, and grease can be missed there clean after clean. A survey finds the sections that cannot be reached, so the gaps can be closed.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
Where a hall near All Saints Church, or anywhere in North Warnborough, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

North Warnborough questions
Do you clean school canteen extracts around North Warnborough out of term?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. There are about 3 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of North Warnborough. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Is North Warnborough within the area you cover?
Yes, North Warnborough is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes, and that is how we prefer to work. We book the visit for when the area is out of use, such as late evening, overnight or a weekend.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and a few photos plus the address and your hours. If we need more, we will ask.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
What happens on a pre-clean survey?
We look at the system from canopy to discharge, take grease readings and check access. It lets us plan the clean and send you a fixed quote.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
What the work involves, part by part
Vertical risers
Risers carry the extract up through the building. Grease can drain down and pool at the bottom, so the base is a key test point.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
School and college kitchens still need their extract checked. Testing shows whether the interval suits.
Grease, kitchens and North Warnborough
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 6 pubs, bars and clubs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of North Warnborough. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. In North Warnborough, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Hart council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers North Warnborough. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Fleet Community Hospital about 4.9 miles north-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Robert May's School or anywhere near North Warnborough, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

What affects the quote in North Warnborough
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- How easy every part is to reach
- The size of the system
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition of the system
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.
What happens if it’s left?
Without readings, you’re guessing when to clean. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, which you won’t know without measuring. Somewhere as small as North Warnborough, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will explain what it covers.

- Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
