TR19 inspection in Wyck
A fixed schedule doesn’t always match how a kitchen really cooks. In a busy kitchen, grease can build faster than the minimum intervals allow for, and only measurement shows it. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. If you have confirming a clean reached the whole system and insurers asking for TR19 evidence, we can put it right.
For a kitchen in or near Wyck, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What TR19 inspection cannot fix
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Hidden runs that need access panels first
- The legal duty, which stays with the responsible person
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean

What we do, step by step
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. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Wyck run smoothly.
- We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
- The system is checked from canopy to discharge.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- We photograph the test points and record any sections we can’t reach.
- We send a report setting out the readings, pictures and next steps.
How to prepare
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Advice
FAQs for Wyck
Who inspects food businesses in Wyck?
Food hygiene inspections in Wyck are carried out by East Hampshire council. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Will you come out to Wyck?
Yes, Wyck is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
How often should grease be tested?
Enough to be sure grease stays within the TR19® Grease figures between cleans. The readings themselves tell you if the interval needs to change.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No, TR19® isn’t legislation. The Fire Safety Order 2005 still requires the responsible person to manage fire risk, and grease in the extract is part of that. Many insurers also expect TR19 cleaning.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Often, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Where we cannot see enough, we arrange a survey.
Between visits
So the system stays in good health:
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, from the measured grease and the kitchen’s hours.
When cooking hours or the menu change, check the interval still fits. Fresh readings show whether it needs to change.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
TR19 inspection in Wyck: the local picture
In Wyck, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from East Hampshire council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fire safety in Wyck falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Binsted Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. A hospital like Alton Community Hospital, about 3.2 miles west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Signs you need TR19 inspection in Wyck
When a site in Wyck changes owner or cleaning contractor, the records don’t always follow. With no history, the current state of the extract is a guess.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
- Extracts that have never been grease tested
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Wyck, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Different parts, different methods

Horizontal duct runs
Bends and long runs can hold heavy deposits, out of sight of the kitchen.
