TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Temple Park
BESA’s minimum cleaning frequencies depend on how long the kitchen cooks each day: 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’re dealing with pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean and insurers asking for TR19 evidence, we can put it right, from access surveys, pre-clean surveys and post-clean checks onwards.
Kitchens around a place like Temple Park are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Temple Park?
Grease builds up as cooking vapour cools inside the extract. It often collects where nobody can see it: the plenum, bends and horizontal runs.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
Where a hall near St Andrew, or anywhere in Temple Park, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
Questions to ask before booking
- What paperwork you get at the end
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- Whether they recommend a next date
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
Why act early in Temple Park
Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. Booking now means the visit to Temple Park is planned around you, not forced by a breakdown.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

For landlords and multi-site operators
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 each one has its own record.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
TR19 inspection around Temple Park
Food Standards Agency records list about 66 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 18 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Temple Park, up to about a mile and a half out. For any of them with a canopy, measuring grease is better than guessing when to clean. Food hygiene inspections in Temple Park are the job of Bracknell Forest council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Temple Park sits within the area of 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.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Meadow Vale Primary School or anywhere near Temple Park, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Pinewood Hospital (about 2.9 miles south), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The size of the system
- The condition we find in the survey
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
What the work involves, part by part
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
A kitchen running from breakfast to late service builds grease quickly. Readings show if the cleans are frequent enough.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Inspections are planned around mealtimes and holidays to avoid disruption.
Common questions in Temple Park
Which fire authority looks after Temple Park?
Fire safety enforcement in Temple Park is handled by Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Temple Park out of term?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Temple Park, the Food Standards Agency lists about 7 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Can the work be done while we’re closed?
Yes, and that is how we prefer to work. We book the visit for when the area is out of use, such as late evening, overnight or a weekend.
Is Temple Park in your area?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, Temple Park included.
At what point does grease need cleaning?
Under TR19® Grease, the mean thickness should not exceed 200 microns between cleans. 500 microns or more at any point calls for immediate spot cleaning.
What is grease thickness testing?
The Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) and Deposit Thickness Test (DTT) measure how thick the grease is at a given point. We take readings at set points from canopy to fan.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification and the industry benchmark, not legislation. The law is the Fire Safety Order 2005, under which the responsible person must manage fire risk, and insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark.

How the visit works
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the TR19 inspection, tidy up and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Tell us when your site near Temple Park is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- We photograph the test points and record any sections we can’t reach.
- The findings go into a report with readings, photos and a recommended next clean.
Getting ready for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Clear the space around the work
