Common problems we fix in Stanton Harcourt
Looking at a canopy tells you little about what’s in the duct. A system can look clean at the filters and be heavily coated further in, which is why readings matter.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Michael or elsewhere in Stanton Harcourt, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

TR19 inspection in Stanton Harcourt, done properly
Before any clean in Stanton Harcourt, we survey the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, fan and discharge. We check where the access panels are and whether every section can be reached, and grease readings are taken at set points. Common call-outs are for heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts and post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean, on deposit thickness tests, insurer audits and access surveys.
In a village or hamlet like Stanton Harcourt, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Flag oily drips near the extract
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Mention new equipment or longer hours at the next test
- Diary the next grease test and clean
If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can quote to do it.
Regular grease readings keep the cleaning interval honest. It shows if build-up is speeding up.

What happens if it’s left?
A pre-clean survey avoids surprises on the night. Access problems are spotted in advance rather than on the night, so the clean covers the whole system. In a small place like Stanton Harcourt, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

Stanton Harcourt questions
Do you cover smaller places like Stanton Harcourt?
Yes, Stanton Harcourt is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Stanton Harcourt?
In Stanton Harcourt, it’s West Oxfordshire 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.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. Give us your opening hours with your enquiry and we will book around them.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Why survey before a clean?
We survey, measure and photograph the system first. The survey can be done from photos and details or on site, whichever suits the system.
How much time does an inspection need?
An inspection takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Large or multiple systems take longer, and you can ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form to book it in.
How much does TR19 inspection cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before any work starts.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What your team can do, and what needs us
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
