Different parts, different methods

School and college kitchens still need their extract checked. Readings show if the interval is right.
Extract fan and discharge
The discharge at the end of the system is checked as well, since grease reaches the very end of the system.
TR19 inspection in Oakshott
Taking on a kitchen in Oakshott with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. You get readings, pictures and a clear view of what’s needed, so the next step is based on facts. The work covers post-clean checks, wet film thickness tests and pre-clean surveys, and common reasons people get in touch are missing TR19 certificates or history and checking the result of a recent clean.
Work in a small place like Oakshott starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Grease, kitchens and Oakshott
At about 48 miles from central London, Oakshott sits well inside the area we cover. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. The fire and rescue service for Oakshott 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.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in Oakshott, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Oakshott is about 3 miles north of Petersfield, in Hampshire.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Oakshott?
Grease is fuel. Flames from the range can be pulled into the canopy and travel through the ducts to other parts of the building. Knowing how much there is lets you act before it becomes a hazard.
Clients usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Petersfield Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Oakshott, about 2.9 miles south.
Questions to ask before you book
- How they set the interval to the next visit

Why deal with it now?
Sites in Oakshott that have never measured grease can’t tell whether their cleaning interval suits the kitchen. Testing gives you the evidence to set it properly. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will talk you through it.

The process
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Oakshott knowing what to expect.
- First we book a time that will not disrupt cooking.
- The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
- We send a report setting out the readings, photos and next steps.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the system
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
When something else is needed
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
- The legal duty, which stays with the responsible person
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.
Where we work
- Pre-clean surveys
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Insurer audits
- Post-clean checks
- Wet film thickness tests
For landlords and multi-site operators
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Oakshott questions
Can you work in Oakshott outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Oakshott?
The local authority for Oakshott is East Hampshire council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Do we have to follow TR19 by law?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification and the industry benchmark, not legislation. The law is the Fire Safety Order 2005, under which the responsible person must manage fire risk, and TR19® is what insurers and fire officers look to.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote normally follows within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we’ll survey first.
What do you do with what you remove?
We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.
Can you inspect our extract for our insurance company?
Yes. We inspect the system and produce a report with grease readings, pictures and any inaccessible areas. You can pass it straight to your insurer or broker.
What does TR19 inspection cost?
There’s no set price, as it 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 we start.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
