TR19 inspection for sites in Hedgerley

Multi-site and managed buildings

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 also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Hedgerley and across Slough. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.

TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Hedgerley

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. Grease testing shows which side of those lines you are on. The work covers pre-clean surveys, deposit thickness tests and access surveys, and the jobs we see most are uncertainty over how often to clean and extracts that have never been grease tested.

Somewhere as small as Hedgerley, 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.

The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Hedgerley questions

Who inspects food businesses in Hedgerley?

Food hygiene inspections in Hedgerley are carried out by Buckinghamshire council. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.

Can you get to a site in Hedgerley?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

Which sectors do you work in?

Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.

Can the work be done while we’re closed?

Yes. Give us your opening hours with your enquiry and we’ll plan the visit around them.

What does a pre-clean survey involve?

A survey finds out how the system is laid out, how dirty it is and what can be reached, so the clean goes to plan. Any access problems are flagged so they can be sorted first.

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.

Grease, kitchens and Hedgerley

Food Standards Agency data counts about 10 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Hedgerley. For any of them with a canopy, measuring grease is better than guessing when to clean. Hedgerley sits within the area of Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. In Hedgerley, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.

A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere in Hedgerley, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Farnham Common Junior School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Wexham Park Hospital (about 3 miles south-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Hedgerley is about 3 miles south-east of Beaconsfield, in Slough. From the centre of Hedgerley to the outskirts, TR19 inspection is available to all kinds of commercial premises, from small sites to large estates. 31 places in Slough are on our list, large and small.

Between visits

Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
  • Flag oily drips near the extract
  • Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
  • Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly

For an insurer audit, send them the report as it is, including readings, photos and any inaccessible sections.

Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.

What the work involves, part by part

Restaurants, pubs and hotels

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

Canopy and plenum

The plenum behind the filters can carry a lot of grease. Readings and pictures are taken in the plenum on every inspection.

The process

When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Hedgerley.

  1. After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
  2. We open the access points used on the clean.
  3. We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
  4. We photograph each area to record how it was left.
  5. The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

Getting a quote

For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.

Advice

What affects the quote in Hedgerley

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

  • What state the system is in
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • The times the site is available

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Helping us quote

Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:

  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

What your team can do, and what needs us

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.

When something else is needed

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
  • Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
  • Removing the grease, which is a separate clean

If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think.
