TR19 Inspection in Buckinghamshire

TR19 inspection in Buckinghamshire: how it works

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. We give your risk assessment measured figures rather than guesses. We are often asked to deal with post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean and an insurer’s request for a TR19 audit, on post-clean checks, access surveys and deposit thickness tests.

There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems.

  1. First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
  2. We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
  3. Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
  4. Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
  5. We report back with readings and a fixed quote.

What you’ll pay

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What you get with us

  • Fully insured
  • One number for every site across the South East and London
  • Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
  • Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line

Getting a quote

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: 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 we can price many jobs without a visit.

Around Aylesbury

Typical jobs here are in premises near Buckinghamshire UTC, Stocklake Park Community School and The Derby Arms Public House. Also close by are Bearbrook Combined School (0.5 miles west) and Church of St Mary (less than half a mile north). There’s a railway station in Aylesbury itself: Aylesbury station. Well-known places in the area include Roald Dahl Children's Gallery (under half a mile east) and Royal Buckinghamshire Hospital (less than half a mile north). Green spaces nearby include Coombe Hill.

Kitchen extracts across Buckinghamshire

Our TR19 inspection work across Buckinghamshire takes in places such as Aylesbury, High Wycombe and Chesham and the villages in between. Every place on our Buckinghamshire list (263 in all) is covered, and kitchens are cleaned around their opening hours, overnight and at weekends included.

We work across London and the South East, and Buckinghamshire is part of that area. Every job is surveyed first and quoted at a fixed price.

Aylesbury: Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Royal Buckinghamshire Hospital (about less than half a mile north), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. A kitchen near Aylesbury station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

What TR19 inspection cannot fix

We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:

  • Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
  • Hidden runs that need access panels first
  • Heavy deposits found on test, which still need cleaning

Keeping the system healthy

How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
  • Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
  • Keep access panels clear and unpainted
  • Keep to the recommended interval

If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can arrange it.

When cooking hours or the menu change, check the interval still fits. A quick grease test answers the question.

Different parts, different methods

Canopy and plenum

Behind the filters, the plenum catches plenty of grease. We take readings there and photograph it as part of every survey.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

We fit testing around service times and school holidays to avoid disruption.

Common problems we fix in Buckinghamshire

Grease is fuel. Flames from the range can be pulled into the canopy and travel through the ducts to other parts of the building. Knowing how much there is lets you act before it becomes a hazard.

What we’re most often called out for:

  • Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
  • Missing TR19 certificates or history
  • Checking the result of a recent clean
  • Sections of duct that cannot be reached

Multi-site and managed buildings

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Questions from Buckinghamshire

Do you cover Buckinghamshire?

Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, and that includes Buckinghamshire.

Can you price the work without visiting?

In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Where we cannot see enough, we arrange a survey.

What about areas you cannot get to?

The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.

What happens to the waste?

We take it away when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. We always survey first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.

How much time does an inspection need?

As a guide, it takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. System size and access decide the rest.

How much notice should we give?

Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
