Common questions in Stockbridge
Do you cover smaller places like Stockbridge?
Yes, Stockbridge is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Stockbridge?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Stockbridge. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Can the work be done while we are closed?
Yes. Give us your opening hours with your enquiry and we’ll book around them.
Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes, anywhere in the area we cover. Share the insurer’s request so the report addresses it.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
TR19 inspection in Stockbridge, done properly
Post-clean verification is a check carried out once the cleaning is done, with fresh grease readings, pictures and a look at the areas that were cleaned. It shows whether the system was left in the condition the paperwork describes. We’re often asked to deal with checking the result of a recent clean and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean, on post-clean checks, pre-clean surveys and wet film thickness tests.
For a kitchen in or near Stockbridge, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Why deal with it now?
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, which you will not know without measuring. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Stockbridge rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

Grease, kitchens and Stockbridge
Food Standards Agency records include about 4 pubs, bars and clubs in and around Stockbridge, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Environmental health officers from Test Valley council inspect food businesses in Stockbridge. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Stockbridge is covered by 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.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Peter or elsewhere in Stockbridge, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections cannot be reached, so every part of the duct can be cleaned.
Common problems we fix in Stockbridge
TR19® is the benchmark that insurers, fire officers and EHOs refer to. It isn’t legislation; the legal duty comes from the Fire Safety Order 2005, under which the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping grease under control.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Stockbridge Primary & Pre-School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Questions to ask before booking
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether a survey comes first
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- What records you will receive afterwards
What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Stockbridge
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What the work involves, part by part
Horizontal duct runs
Grease can gather thickly at bends and along long runs, out of sight of the kitchen.
Vertical risers
Vertical risers take the extract up through the floors. Grease can drain down and pool at the bottom, so the base is a key test point.
How the visit works
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Stockbridge run smoothly.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen is not busy.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
