Part by part

The plenum behind the filters can carry a lot of grease. Readings and photos are taken in the plenum as part of every survey.

Restaurants, pubs and hotels

Inspections are done when the kitchen is closed or quiet so the kitchen keeps cooking.

About our TR19 inspection in Great Kingshill

TR19® Grease says grease should not exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. Testing is how you know where your system stands. Common call-outs are for heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts and sections of duct that can’t be reached, on wet film thickness tests, insurer audits and access surveys.

Somewhere as small as Great Kingshill, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, 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.

Great Kingshill questions

Which environmental health team covers Great Kingshill?

That is Buckinghamshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Great Kingshill. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.

Do you work overnight in Great Kingshill?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Where does the waste go?

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

What grease levels does TR19 allow?

Two figures matter: a mean of no more than 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns at any single point, which needs immediate spot cleaning. We show your readings against those figures.

Why survey before a clean?

We look at the system from canopy to discharge, take grease readings and check access. It lets us plan the clean and give you a fixed quote.

What information do you need?

The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.

What do you do to protect the area?

Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

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.

Leave it or put it right?

If a kitchen in Great Kingshill has been cleaned on the same calendar for years, there’s no way to know if that interval is right without measuring. Measured readings let a competent person set the interval. It’s simpler to plan the work at Great Kingshill now than to arrange it in a hurry later.

What affects the cost of TR19 inspection

Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:

  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • The size of the system

What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • A few general shots of the system
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Problems your staff have spotted

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

What we do, step by step

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Great Kingshill can be planned properly.

  1. We go through any past certificates and reports.
  2. The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
  3. We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
  4. We measure the grease and photograph each point.
  5. We report back with readings and a fixed quote.

Preparing for the visit

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
  • Find the previous report, if there is one

Keeping the system healthy

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Diary the next grease test and clean
  • Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
  • Do not box in or cover duct access panels
  • Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked

For an insurer audit, send them the report as it is, with readings, pictures and any areas not accessible.

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

For landlords and multi-site operators

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Great Kingshill and across Buckinghamshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

What a clean won’t put right

A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

  • A faulty or failing extract fan
  • Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
  • Design faults in the extract system

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What the work covers

  • Post-clean checks
  • Deposit thickness tests
  • Wet film thickness tests
  • Pre-clean surveys
  • Access surveys
  • Insurer audits
