Stud Green TR19 inspection
One call covers TR19 inspections, grease thickness testing, pre-clean surveys and post-clean verification in Stud Green, from survey to sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
- 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 arrange it.
Keep filters clean and in place. Gaps around filters let grease get past them.
TR19 inspection in Stud Green, done properly
If you’ve taken over a kitchen in Stud Green and do not know when the extract was last cleaned, an inspection is the place to start. You get readings, pictures and a clear view of what’s needed, so the next step is based on facts. The work covers post-clean checks, insurer audits and deposit thickness tests, and common reasons people get in touch are cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen and missing access panels found on survey.
In a small place like Stud Green, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

What the work involves, part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Education kitchens need TR19 inspections like any other. Testing shows whether the interval suits.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Inspections are done when the kitchen is closed or quiet so the kitchen keeps cooking.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not 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.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
TR19 inspection around Stud Green
Food Standards Agency records list about 17 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 4 sandwich bars and takeaways in Stud Green and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. A WFTT or DTT reading tells each of those kitchens whether its grease is staying under the 200-micron mean. Stud Green is covered by 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. Environmental health officers from Windsor and Maidenhead council inspect food businesses in Stud Green. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Stud Green is St Mark's Hospital, about 2.5 miles north. For schools such as Holyport College, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Stud Green (Dorney Court is about 2.7 miles east), fitting access panels needs care.

What happens if it’s left?
After an incident, an insurer can ask to see proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection. Without them, a claim can be reduced or refused. An up-to-date inspection report is a good place to start. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

Stud Green: your questions answered
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Stud Green?
Kitchens in Stud Green are inspected by Windsor and Maidenhead council’s environmental health officers. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Stud Green?
It’s Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Stud Green. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
How long does grease testing take?
It takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. The visit is timed so cooking isn’t disrupted.
What do you do with what you remove?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.
Do you work out of hours?
Yes, and that is how we prefer to work. We book the visit for when the area is out of use, whether that’s late evening, overnight or a weekend.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. All told, 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. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Stud Green and turn up when the site is quiet.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- The same access points are opened up.
- Grease readings are taken again at set points.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Multi-site and managed buildings
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Stud Green and across Windsor and Maidenhead. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
