TR19 inspection in Oxshott, done properly
Insurance policies often require evidence of TR19® cleaning and inspection. Without it, a claim can be refused or reduced. A TR19 audit sets out the system’s condition, with readings and photos, for sites in Oxshott and the rest of Surrey. The work covers pre-clean surveys, insurer audits and access surveys, and people most often call us about missing access panels found on survey and kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings.
Kitchens around a place like Oxshott are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
What happens on the day
Each visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the TR19 inspection, clear away and leave you the report. On site, the work takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. In a smaller place like Oxshott, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen is not busy.
- The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- We photograph the test points and record any sections we cannot reach.
- We send a report setting out the readings, pictures and next steps.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Your questions about TR19 inspection in Oxshott
Who is the fire and rescue service for Oxshott?
Fire safety enforcement in Oxshott is handled by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can you work in Oxshott outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Oxshott keeps running as normal. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Do you check other contractors’ cleans?
Verification means repeat readings and pictures once the clean is done. Any areas that weren’t cleaned properly are flagged.
At what point does grease need cleaning?
The TR19® Grease figures are a mean of 200 microns or less between cleans, and immediate spot cleaning wherever a reading hits 500 microns. Our report sets your readings against both.
How much time does an inspection need?
Testing takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Sites with several canopies take longer, so ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will plan it.
How much does TR19 inspection cost in Oxshott?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Fixed quotes for TR19 inspection in Oxshott
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The size of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition we find in the survey
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. The fire and rescue service for Oxshott is Surrey 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.

Keeping the system healthy
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
The report recommends when the system should next be cleaned and tested, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
Common problems we fix in Oxshott
You can’t judge grease thickness by eye. Clean filters can hide a heavy layer behind them, which is why readings matter.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
- Checking the result of a recent clean
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Oxshott is Epsom Cottage Hospital, about 2.5 miles east.
