Kitchen extracts in Broughton Crossing
The Food Standards Agency lists about 28 pubs and bars as registered food businesses in Broughton Crossing and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. The fire and rescue service for Broughton Crossing 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. It’s Buckinghamshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Broughton Crossing. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St James, or anywhere in Broughton Crossing, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Tindal Centre about 0.8 miles west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. For schools such as Bierton Church of England Combined School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

TR19 inspection in Broughton Crossing, done properly
Taking on a kitchen in Broughton Crossing with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. You get readings, pictures and a clear view of what’s needed, before any cleaning is booked. Typical jobs include systems that need surveying before cleaning and checking the result of a recent clean, on insurer audits, post-clean checks and access surveys.
Somewhere as small as Broughton Crossing, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What we do, step by step
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 couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Broughton Crossing.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen is not busy.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
- You get a report with readings, photos and recommendations.
Before we arrive
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Surveying first means the clean goes to plan. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, so the clean covers the whole system. A planned visit to Broughton Crossing is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
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 play a part.

Take a look at what affects the cost and how to check a contractor.
What affects the quote in Broughton Crossing
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.
Different parts, different methods
Horizontal duct runs
Sections without access are recorded so panels can be added.
Extract fan and discharge
Grease on the fan adds to wear. The inspection shows whether it needs cleaning now.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
- Diary the next grease test and clean
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
Readings of 500 microns or more are highlighted as needing immediate spot cleaning, and we can quote to do it.
Keep filters clean and in place. Missing or damaged filters let grease straight into the plenum.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
FAQs for Broughton Crossing
Can the work in Broughton Crossing be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Broughton Crossing doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which council inspects kitchens in Broughton Crossing?
In Broughton Crossing, it’s Buckinghamshire council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
When should we have our next grease test?
That varies with the kitchen’s daily use. BESA’s minimum cleaning intervals are every 3, 6 or 12 months for heavy, moderate and light use, and grease readings help set the real interval.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, if we can see what we need. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.
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.
Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes. Insurers often want evidence the extract is managed to TR19®, and an audit report gives you that, along with any actions needed.
