TR19 inspections and grease testing in Worminghall, Buckinghamshire
We cover Worminghall for TR19 inspection. Out-of-hours visits, a fixed quote and a written report with pictures on every job.

- Sites with gaps in their extract records
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
How the job changes from site to site
Schools, hospitals and care homes
School and college kitchens still need their extract checked. Testing shows whether the interval suits.
Extract fan and discharge
The discharge at the end of the system is checked as well, as grease can build up there too.
About our TR19 inspection in Worminghall
Before any clean in Worminghall, we survey the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, fan and discharge. Access is checked along the full length, and record grease readings at set points. If you’re dealing with kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings and sites with gaps in their extract records, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Worminghall, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

What TR19 inspection looks like in Worminghall
Environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council inspect food businesses in Worminghall. 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. At about 46 miles from central London, Worminghall sits well inside the area we cover. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
Boarstall Tower, about 3.8 miles north, is one of the historic houses near Worminghall; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Peter and St Paul, or anywhere in Worminghall, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Leave it or put it right?
Post-clean verification shows whether the system was left the way the certificate says, while there’s still time to put anything right. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

What affects the quote in Worminghall
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It’s based on:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The scale of the work
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will talk you through it.
Helping us quote
What to send for a quote:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
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
- A faulty or failing extract fan
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What the work covers
- Access surveys
- Pre-clean surveys
- Post-clean checks
- Insurer audits
- Wet film thickness tests
- Deposit thickness tests
What we’re called out for in Worminghall
Some parts of a system are hard to reach, and grease can be missed there clean after clean. An inspection of a system in Worminghall shows where access panels are missing, so the gaps can be closed.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Sections of duct that can’t be reached
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Thame Community Hospital (about 4.8 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
Worminghall questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Worminghall?
Kitchens in Worminghall are inspected by Buckinghamshire council’s environmental health officers. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Can you work in Worminghall outside opening hours?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Worminghall can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
What should I send you?
A short description and a few photos, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do you cover Worminghall?
Yes. Our technicians work in Worminghall, as part of our area across London and the South East.
How much time does an inspection need?
An inspection takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Sites with several canopies take longer, and you can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email to book it in.
Do you check other contractors’ cleans?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, whoever did the clean.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.

The process
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the TR19 inspection, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Worminghall before we set off.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Move anything stored near the system
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
