FAQs for Stony Green
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Stony Green?
Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Stony Green. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Stony Green?
Food hygiene inspections in Stony Green are carried out by Buckinghamshire council. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
How much does a filter exchange service cost?
Pricing depends on the kitchen, so we quote once we know your filters and schedule. You get a fixed price before the service starts.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: reports, certificates, photos and your own cleaning or check logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on use and what we found.
Do you handle baffle and mesh filters?
We exchange baffle and mesh filters. We record the sizes and number of filters at the start so the clean set always fits.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
About our grease filter exchange in Stony Green
An exchange visit in Stony Green does not take long. The greasy filters come out, clean ones go in and make sure there are no gaps between them. If something looks wrong, we tell you. Typical jobs include filters that leave gaps in the canopy and staff short of time to wash filters, on school and hospital kitchens, baffle filters and wall canopies.
In a small place like Stony Green, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Leave it or put it right?
Filters full of grease are fuel sitting right above the cooking. A flare-up on the range can reach them, and from there into the duct. Keeping filters clean takes some of that fuel away. It’s simpler to plan the work at Stony Green now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
How the job changes from site to site
Baffle filters
In a baffle filter, the air zigzags through metal baffles. Grease drops out as it does.
Canopy filter housings
Every exchange includes a check of how the filters sit since a gap is a route for grease.

Any of those kitchens with a canopy relies on its filters to catch grease before it reaches the duct. Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Stony Green. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Never leave gaps in the filter bank
- Watch for grease drips between visits
- Never cook with the extract switched off
There’s no waiting: the canopy is ready as soon as the clean set is fitted. We take the greasy filters with us for cleaning.
If cooking has stepped up, the filter schedule should too. Adjusting the schedule now prevents a build-up behind the canopy.
