How we handle TR19 inspection in Oakley Green

Post-clean verification is a check carried out once the cleaning is done, with fresh grease readings, pictures and a look at the areas that were cleaned. It gives you evidence of how the system was actually left. Common call-outs are for insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning and extracts that have never been grease tested, on post-clean checks, wet film thickness tests and access surveys.

Work in a small place like Oakley Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, 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.

Why deal with it now?

A check after cleaning shows whether the work reached every part it should have, before the next clean is due. In a place like Oakley Green, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

What TR19 inspection looks like in Oakley Green

The FSA’s data shows about 4 pubs, bars and clubs and about 3 hotels and B&Bs registered within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Oakley Green. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Food hygiene inspections in Oakley Green are the job of Windsor and Maidenhead council’s environmental health team. 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. The fire and rescue service for Oakley Green is Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

A hospital like King Edward VII Hospital, about 2.2 miles east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near All Saints or elsewhere in Oakley Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Oakley Green is about 1 mile west of Windsor, in Windsor and Maidenhead.

What the work involves, part by part

Restaurants, pubs and hotels

We test between services, early in the morning or after close so the kitchen keeps cooking.

Horizontal duct runs

Bends and long runs can hold heavy deposits, well away from where anyone looks.

What TR19 inspection cannot fix

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

  • Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning
  • The legal duty, which stays with the responsible person
  • Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit

Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Where we work

  • Pre-clean surveys
  • Wet film thickness tests
  • Deposit thickness tests
  • Insurer audits
  • Post-clean checks
  • Access surveys

Multi-site and managed buildings

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Windsor and Maidenhead. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

Your questions about TR19 inspection in Oakley Green

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Oakley Green?

In Oakley Green, it’s Windsor and Maidenhead council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Oakley Green?

That is Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.

What’s TR19?

TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.

What information do you need?

Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Do you work out of hours?

Yes. Evenings, nights and weekends are normal working hours for us, so you do not have to close during trading.

Do you cover Oakley Green?

Yes. We work in Oakley Green and the rest of Windsor and Maidenhead, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

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 as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

How much does TR19 inspection cost in Oakley Green?

Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.

Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Oakley Green

Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • How many systems or sites are involved
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • The times the site is available

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed quote.

What we need to know

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

What we are called out for in Oakley Green

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 panels can be fitted.

Keep an eye out for these warning signs:

  • Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
  • Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
  • Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
  • Parts of the system left out of past cleans

If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Oakley Green (St Leonard's Hill is about 1 mile south-east), fitting access panels needs care.

  • Whether they recommend a next date
  • What records you’ll receive afterwards
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • Proof of insurance

Our hiring checklist

How it works

A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the TR19 inspection, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. In a small place like Oakley Green, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.

  1. Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
  2. We open the access points used on the clean.
  3. Grease readings are taken again at set points.
  4. We photograph each area to record how it was left.
  5. The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
