TR19 inspection in Stonehill
BESA sets minimum cleaning intervals by daily use: heavy use (12 to 16 hours a day) every 3 months, moderate use (6 to 12 hours) every 6 months and light use (2 to 6 hours) every 12 months. Grease testing shows whether your kitchen needs cleaning more often than that. If you have insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning and kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Stonehill, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What happens if it’s left?
Finding a hotspot early means a targeted spot clean rather than a bigger problem later. Left alone, grease keeps building between cleans. In a place like Stonehill, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will talk you through it.

Your questions about TR19 inspection in Stonehill
Which council inspects kitchens in Stonehill?
Food hygiene inspections in Stonehill are carried out by Runnymede council. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Can you get to a site in Stonehill?
Yes. Stonehill is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which accreditations do you hold?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
How long does a TR19 inspection take?
Expect it to take a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. We fit it around when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
How far ahead should we book?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Why survey before a clean?
We look at the system from canopy to discharge, take grease readings and check access. It lets us plan the clean and give you a fixed quote.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
A post-clean check records grease readings and pictures after the work, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
What do you do with what you remove?
We take it away when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
- File every inspection report with your certificates
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so the history is easy to show.
What staff can safely do
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Stonehill
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Surrey. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
When it’s something else
TR19 inspection cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Mechanical faults in the extract
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- Design faults in the extract system
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Where we work

TR19 inspection around Stonehill
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 12 restaurants, cafés and canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Stonehill. For any of them with a canopy, measuring grease is better than guessing when to clean. Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers Stonehill. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Food hygiene inspections in Stonehill are the job of Runnymede council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Stonehill is St. Peter's Hospital, about 1.8 miles north-east. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Salesian School or anywhere near Stonehill, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Where a hall near Christ Church, or anywhere in Stonehill, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Stonehill and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points by WFTT or DTT.
- Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
- We send a report setting out the readings, photos and next steps.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
