TR19 inspection in Two Mile Ash, done properly
Taking on a kitchen in Two Mile Ash with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. We survey the system, measure the grease and tell you what needs doing, before any cleaning is booked. Common call-outs are for systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements and post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean, on deposit thickness tests, post-clean checks and wet film thickness tests.
Size does not change the work: a kitchen in a place like Two Mile Ash gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

When to call us in Two Mile Ash
Menus, opening hours and cooking styles change over time, and more frying or longer hours mean more grease. The old cleaning schedule may not match the kitchen any more.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
- Checking the result of a recent clean
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of the Holy Cross, or anywhere in Two Mile Ash, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
What your quote should include
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Proof of insurance
- If they look at the system before pricing
- Whether a written report and photos are included
What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Diary the next grease test and clean
- Do not box in or cover duct access panels
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
After the inspection, we send a report showing each reading, its location and pictures. Keep it with your fire safety and TR19 records.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections cannot be reached, so grease isn’t left building in hidden parts.
Honest limits
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- Installation problems, which fall under design guidance such as DW172
- A faulty or failing extract fan
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What the work covers

Common questions in Two Mile Ash
Who is the fire and rescue service for Two Mile Ash?
Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Two Mile Ash. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Do you work at weekends in Two Mile Ash?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Two Mile Ash keeps running as normal. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes. Insurers often want evidence the extract is managed to TR19®, and an audit report gives you that, along with any actions needed.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
What is TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
The process
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like Two Mile Ash.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using 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
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

What the work involves, part by part
