Questions from Shreding Green
Can you come to Shreding Green after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Shreding Green needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.
Can school kitchens in Shreding Green be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. With about 6 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Shreding Green, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. You can call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.
What if some of our filters are damaged?
A badly damaged filter should be replaced. We will show you which ones on the visit.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Where do the greasy filters go?
The greasy set leaves with us for cleaning and your staff don’t have to deal with them. Clean filters go straight in.
How regularly do grease filters need exchanging?
It varies from kitchen to kitchen. The schedule is based on how heavily you cook, and adjust it if needed.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
The law calls them the responsible person. That’s generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and where several people have control, each can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it for clients who vet their contractors.
About our grease filter exchange in Shreding Green
The filters in the canopy are the first thing cooking vapour meets. They catch grease before it reaches the plenum and ductwork, but only while they’re reasonably clean. Our grease filter exchange service swaps dirty filters for clean ones on a schedule. The work covers baffle filters, mesh filters and island canopies, and the jobs we see most are filters that come out of the sink still dirty and poor airflow through the filters.
Work in a small place like Shreding Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, 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.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Honest limits
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change will not reach
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
- A canopy too small for the cooking beneath it
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Where we work
- Mesh filters

What we’re called out for in Shreding Green
The type of cooking matters. Fryers, grills and woks load filters faster than ovens and steamers so no single schedule suits every kitchen.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Gaps where filters have been removed
- Damaged filters letting grease past
- Grease dripping from the canopy
- Weak extraction at the canopy
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Peter or elsewhere in Shreding Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

For landlords and multi-site operators
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What the work involves, part by part
Baffle filters
Baffle filters use overlapping metal blades that force the air to change direction. Grease is thrown out of the airstream and collects on the baffles.
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
Heavy cooking means more grease reaching every part of the system. Regular changes help protect the ductwork.
How the visit works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Shreding Green.
- We start by noting how many filters you have and what type they are.
- We agree a schedule that suits how much the kitchen cooks.
- On each visit, the dirty filters come out of the canopy.
- Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
- If a filter is damaged or the plenum needs attention, we tell you.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a quote
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Let us know if your cooking hours increase
- Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
- Tell us if a filter is bent or damaged
- Keep every filter in place during service
If the plenum behind the filters looks greasy, we say so. That might mean bringing a TR19® clean forward and we can book that in.
Filters that are left too long stop protecting the system. A regular cycle keeps the rest of the system cleaner between full cleans.
How we price grease filter exchange
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- What state the system is in
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The scale of the work
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any previous report or certificate
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Shreding Green kitchens: local notes
There are about 18 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 14 takeaways in and around Shreding Green, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Each canopy among them has filters that load with grease and need swapping or cleaning. Environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council inspect food businesses in Shreding Green. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. The fire and rescue service for Shreding Green is Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Wexham Park Hospital (about 2.3 miles north-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you run a café or takeaway near Langley station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.
