Osterley TR19 inspection
TR19 inspection for Osterley, with a survey first and a report with pictures at the end. Call for a fixed quote.
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
How the job changes from site to site
Vertical risers
Vertical risers take the extract up through the floors. Grease can run down and collect at the base, so we check there.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Hospital and care home kitchens can cook all day, every day. Testing shows if the cleaning interval keeps pace.
About our TR19 inspection in Osterley
If you’ve taken over a kitchen in Osterley and don’t know when the extract was last cleaned, an inspection is the place to start. We survey the system, measure the grease and tell you what needs doing, before any cleaning is booked. If you have missing access panels found on survey and sites with gaps in their extract records, we can help, from post-clean checks, wet film thickness tests and deposit thickness tests onwards.
Kitchens in Osterley, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What happens if it’s left?
Post-clean verification shows whether the system was left the way the certificate says, before the next clean is due. Leaving it on a busy London site only adds to the work.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What you get with us
- Every job surveyed first
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001

- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
TR19 inspection in Osterley: the local picture
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 33 pubs, bars and clubs and about 11 hotels and B&Bs within about 1.5 miles of central Osterley. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Osterley sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. 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 London, kitchens are usually cleaned overnight, when the kitchen is closed and loading is easier.
A kitchen near Isleworth station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; West Middlesex University Hospital is the nearest hospital to Osterley, about 1.3 miles south-east.

What we’re called out for in Osterley
Some parts of a system are hard to reach, and grease can be missed there clean after clean. A survey finds the sections that can’t be reached, so the gaps can be closed.
The symptoms we are asked about most are:
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
School kitchens, at schools like Isleworth and Syon School for Boys for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
Questions to ask before you book
- What insurance they carry
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether a survey comes first
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
What we do, step by step
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we’re happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Osterley.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
- You get a report with readings, photos and recommendations.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Advice
FAQs for Osterley
Who inspects food businesses in Osterley?
That’s Hounslow council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Osterley. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
What do you need to know about parking in Osterley?
We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. If the building has a loading slot system, we’ll book into it.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
What is post-clean verification?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
Do you carry out TR19 audits for insurers?
Yes. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection, and an audit report gives you that, along with any actions needed.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
