TR19 inspections in Walton Manor
TR19 inspection for Walton Manor, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
About our TR19 inspection in Walton Manor
Taking on a kitchen in Walton Manor with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. We survey the system, measure the grease and tell you what needs doing, so the next step is based on facts. Typical jobs include ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits and sections of duct that can’t be reached, across post-clean checks, wet film thickness tests and access surveys.
Kitchens around a place like Walton Manor are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What a clean will not put right
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
- Hidden runs that need access panels first

What TR19 inspection looks like in Walton Manor
Food Standards Agency data counts about 313 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 30 takeaways in Walton Manor 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. Walton Manor is covered by Oxfordshire 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. Food hygiene inspections in Walton Manor are the job of Oxford City council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Holywell Manor is about 1 mile south-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Bursars and site managers at schools such as St Aloysius' Catholic Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What happens on the day
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Walton Manor, so let us know how to reach it.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- Grease readings are taken and photos recorded.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
How to prepare
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a quote
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Advice
FAQs for Walton Manor
Is Walton Manor within the area you cover?
Yes, Walton Manor is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which fire service covers Walton Manor?
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Walton Manor. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Do you work out of hours?
Yes. Give us your opening hours with your enquiry and we will book around them.
Do you carry out TR19 audits for insurers?
Yes. Insurers often want evidence the extract is managed to TR19®, and our audit gives a clear record of the system’s condition, along with any actions needed.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
What about areas you cannot get to?
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.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Are you accredited?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Diary the next grease test and clean
- Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can arrange it.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections can’t be reached, so grease isn’t left building in hidden parts.
When to call us in Walton Manor
Records can go missing when a business changes hands or contractors. Without them, nobody knows how much grease is in the system or when it was last cleaned.
The symptoms we’re asked about most include:
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Acland Hospital about within half a mile south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
Questions to ask before you book
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Proof of accreditation you can verify

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
