What we are called out for in Wildmoor
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.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Uncertainty over how often to clean
- Parts of the system left out of past cleans
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
A hospital like Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, about 4.1 miles west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

TR19 inspection in Wildmoor, done properly
BESA’s minimum cleaning frequencies depend on how long the kitchen cooks each day: every 3 months for heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day, every 6 months for moderate use of 6 to 12 hours, and every 12 months for light use of 2 to 6 hours. Those are minimums, and grease readings help set the real interval. If you are dealing with extracts that have never been grease tested and missing access panels found on survey, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Wildmoor, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What happens on the day
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, 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. Somewhere as small as Wildmoor, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen isn’t busy.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
- You get a report with readings, photos and recommendations.

What a clean will not put right
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Mechanical faults in the extract
- The responsible person’s own fire risk assessment
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
Where we work
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Post-clean checks
- Wet film thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
- Insurer audits
Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Book the next test on the date in the report
The report recommends when the system should next be cleaned and tested, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections can’t be reached, so every part of the duct can be cleaned.
Kitchen extracts in Wildmoor
Food Standards Agency records list about 4 restaurants, cafés and canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Wildmoor. Each kitchen extract among them can be measured for grease to set the right cleaning interval. Environmental health officers from Basingstoke and Deane council inspect food businesses in Wildmoor. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Wildmoor sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Historic houses near Wildmoor, such as The Vyne about 3 miles west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St. Leonard or elsewhere in Wildmoor, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning doesn’t 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.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
FAQs for Wildmoor
Which fire authority looks after Wildmoor?
Wildmoor is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you cover smaller places like Wildmoor?
Yes, Wildmoor is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
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 about areas you can’t get to?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Do we have to follow TR19 by law?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification and the industry benchmark, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which requires the responsible person to reduce fire risk, and TR19® is what insurers and fire officers look to.
At what point does grease need cleaning?
The TR19® Grease figures are a mean of 200 microns or less between cleans, and immediate spot cleaning wherever a reading hits 500 microns. Our report sets your readings against both.
How much time does an inspection need?
It takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. The visit is timed so cooking isn’t disrupted.
How much does TR19 inspection cost in Wildmoor?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote and we will usually reply within one working day.
