From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
TR19 inspection in Stratfield Saye
A pre-clean survey looks at the whole system, from canopy to discharge. Access is checked along the full length, and grease readings are taken at set points. Typical jobs include extracts that have never been grease tested and pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean, on pre-clean surveys, post-clean checks and access surveys.
For a kitchen in or near Stratfield Saye, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

How the job changes from site to site
Horizontal duct runs
Bends and long runs can hold heavy deposits, well away from where anyone looks.
Vertical risers
In buildings with several floors, the riser may pass through other tenants’ space, so access is planned in advance.
Stratfield Saye: your questions answered
Do you work at weekends in Stratfield Saye?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Stratfield Saye does not have to lose a day’s trading. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you work in villages like Stratfield Saye?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Stratfield Saye is covered. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you check other contractors’ cleans?
We visit after a clean, take readings at set points and photograph the system. The report flags anything missed.
Do we have to follow TR19 by law?
No. TR19® is a specification, not a statute. Without TR19 records, an insurance claim can be reduced or refused, so following it is the sensible course.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
How much does TR19 inspection cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll typically reply within one working day.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
Why it’s worth doing now in Stratfield Saye
Finding a hotspot early means a targeted spot clean rather than a bigger problem later. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Travel, parking and unloading
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we will explain what it covers.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, send us:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The site address and the type of premises
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.

Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Keep the route to access panels clear
- Keep to the recommended interval
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
You get a report with the grease readings, where they were taken and pictures of each point. File it alongside your TR19 certificates.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so the history is easy to show.
What TR19 inspection cannot fix
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Insurer audits
- Post-clean checks
- Pre-clean surveys
- Access surveys
- Wet film thickness tests
- Deposit thickness tests
How it works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Somewhere as small as Stratfield Saye, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen isn’t busy.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- 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, pictures and next steps.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
How to get a quote
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
