TR19 inspection in Peasemore
Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. Some kitchens build up grease faster than the minimum intervals assume, and only measurement shows it. We give your risk assessment measured figures rather than guesses. We’re often asked to deal with kitchens taken over with no cleaning records and uncertainty over how often to clean, across pre-clean surveys, insurer audits and post-clean checks.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

When to call us in Peasemore
You can’t judge grease thickness by eye. A system can look clean at the filters and be heavily coated further in, which is why readings matter.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
- Sites with gaps in their extract records
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Barnabas or elsewhere in Peasemore, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Questions to ask before booking
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether the price is fixed
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
Why it’s worth doing now in Peasemore
A pre-clean survey avoids surprises on the night. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, and the quote reflects the real job. It’s simpler to plan the work at Peasemore now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will talk you through it.

What staff can safely do
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, alongside our reports.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Peasemore questions
Who is the fire and rescue service for Peasemore?
It’s Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Peasemore. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Do you work at weekends in Peasemore?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Peasemore needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few photos and any previous report.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® is a specification, not a statute. In practice, an insurer can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of TR19 cleaning, so following it is the sensible course.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
That varies with the kitchen’s daily use. BESA sets minimum cleaning intervals of 3, 6 or 12 months by daily use, and testing shows if your kitchen needs more.
Do you cover Peasemore?
Yes. We work in Peasemore and the rest of West Berkshire, within our South East and London area. To book, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Why survey before a clean?
A survey finds out how the system is laid out, how dirty it is and what can be reached, before anyone starts cleaning. Missing access panels are noted ahead of the clean.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How big the system is
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition of the system
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The site address and the type of premises
- Problems your staff have spotted
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.

Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Mention new equipment or longer hours at the next test
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- Keep the route to access panels clear
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
After the inspection, we send a report showing each reading, its location and photos. Keep it with your fire safety and TR19 records.
Test grease regularly instead of relying on the calendar. It shows if build-up is speeding up.
How it works
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. On site, the work takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. The timing of a visit to Peasemore is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First we book a time that will not disrupt cooking.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

School and college kitchens still need their extract checked. Testing shows whether the interval suits.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
We test between services, early in the morning or after close so trading isn’t affected.
Peasemore kitchens: local notes
The fire and rescue service for Peasemore is Royal Berkshire 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. In Peasemore, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from West Berkshire council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
A TR19® clean in Peasemore doesn’t stop at the filters: the plenum, ductwork, fan and discharge are cleaned too.
