About our TR19 inspection in Wootton
Think of a TR19 inspection as the diagnosis before the treatment. Readings, photos and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. If you have surveys needed before quoting a full clean and ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits, we can put it right, from wet film thickness tests, insurer audits and post-clean checks onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Wootton, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Common questions in Wootton
Can you get to a site in Wootton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which fire authority looks after Wootton?
That is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. Then you get a fixed quote.
How much does TR19 inspection cost in Wootton?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Leave it or put it right?
After an incident, an insurer can ask to see proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection. Without them, a claim can be reduced or refused. Getting an inspection done now starts that paper trail. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Wootton is calmer for everyone.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.
Why us?
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
- Every job surveyed first
- A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London
- We are fully insured

Common problems we fix in Wootton
Grease builds up as cooking vapour cools inside the extract. The thickest layers can sit out of sight in the plenum, at bends and along flat runs.
What we are most often called out for:
- Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St John or elsewhere in Wootton, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Grease, kitchens and Wootton
The FSA’s data shows about 3 pubs, bars and clubs registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Wootton. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Kitchens in Wootton get their food hygiene inspections from New Forest council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Wootton is covered by 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 Wootton, such as Avon Tyrrell House about 3.2 miles west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Lymington New Forest Hospital is the nearest hospital to Wootton, about 5.5 miles east.

Between visits
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Look out for grease drips round the canopy edge
Where sections couldn’t be reached, the report says where access panels would help. Fitting them before the next clean means the whole system gets done.
Fit access panels where the survey finds sections cannot be reached, so grease is not left building in hidden parts.
How it works
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. The timing of a visit to Wootton is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- The same access points are opened up.
- Grease readings are taken again at set points.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Clear the space around the work
