How we handle TR19 inspection in Chesham Bois
Not every kitchen fits neatly into a calendar. In a busy kitchen, grease can build faster than the minimum intervals allow for, which is why measurement matters. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. The work covers deposit thickness tests, access surveys and pre-clean surveys, and people most often call us about sections of duct that can’t be reached and confirming a clean reached the whole system.
In a smaller place like Chesham Bois, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

How it works
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like Chesham Bois.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
Get a fixed quote
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Advice
Part by part
Extract fan and discharge
The extract fan and its housing collect grease too. We check and test them as part of the inspection.
Horizontal duct runs
If a run has no access panel, we note it so panels can be added.
How we price TR19 inspection
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The size of the system
- Any permits to work or inductions
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Any previous report or certificate
If you need TR19 inspection in Chesham Bois, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote typically follows within one working day.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Chesham Bois
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.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Never cook with filters missing
- Book the next test on the date in the report
After post-clean verification, file the results with the cleaning certificate. Together they show the system was cleaned and checked.
Close the access gaps found during inspection, so grease isn’t left building in hidden parts.
Grease, kitchens and Chesham Bois
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 17 pubs, bars and clubs in and around Chesham Bois, up to about a mile and a half out. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. It’s Buckinghamshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Chesham Bois. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fire safety in Chesham Bois falls to Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Where a hall near Church of St Leonard, or anywhere in Chesham Bois, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Amersham Hospital is the nearest hospital to Chesham Bois, about 1.7 miles south-west. Commuter trade near Amersham station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.
