TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Weston Turville
A grease test measures how thick the grease is inside a kitchen extract system. We use the Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or the Deposit Thickness Test (DTT), taking readings at set points. The results show whether the system needs cleaning and how soon. Typical jobs include insurers asking for TR19 evidence and confirming a clean reached the whole system, across insurer audits, wet film thickness tests and deposit thickness tests.
In a smaller place like Weston Turville, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later 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.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How it works
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Tell us when your site near Weston Turville is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Advice
Weston Turville: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in Weston Turville?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Weston Turville is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Which fire authority looks after Weston Turville?
Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Weston Turville. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you check other contractors’ cleans?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
How often should grease be tested?
Each report recommends when to test and clean next, taking the readings and the kitchen’s hours into account. A risk assessment based on measured grease should set the interval.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Can the work be done while we are closed?
Yes, and it’s often the best time. The visit is timed for when the area isn’t in use, whether that is late evening, overnight or a weekend.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
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 will ask for anything else we need.

Signs you need TR19 inspection in Weston Turville
Some parts of a system are hard to reach, and grease can be missed there clean after clean. An inspection of a system in Weston Turville shows where access panels are missing, so panels can be fitted.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary the Virgin, or anywhere in Weston Turville, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
Before you book anyone

- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
What affects the cost of TR19 inspection
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The condition we find in the survey
- The times the site is available
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Your last certificate, test record or report

Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
- Keep to the recommended interval
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
After post-clean verification, file the results with the cleaning certificate. The pair gives a clear record of the clean and the check.
Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Gaps around filters let grease get past them.

What TR19 inspection cannot fix

- The legal duty, which stays with the responsible person
- A faulty or failing extract fan
