- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
How it works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Somewhere like Little Kingshill, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- The visit is arranged for when the kitchen isn’t busy.
- Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
- Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
- We photograph the test points and record any sections we can’t reach.
- The findings go into a report with readings, pictures and a recommended next clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Advice
TR19 inspection in Little Kingshill
A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. Readings, pictures and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. If you have insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning and checking the result of a recent clean, we can help, from pre-clean surveys, deposit thickness tests and post-clean checks onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Little Kingshill, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Questions from Little Kingshill
Which fire authority looks after Little Kingshill?
Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Little Kingshill. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Is Little Kingshill within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What does a pre-clean survey involve?
We survey, measure and photograph the system first. We can work from photos and details, or visit, as suits the job.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Do you check other contractors’ cleans?
We visit after a clean, take readings at set points and photograph the system. The report flags anything missed.
What do you do with what you remove?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Between visits
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Never cook with filters missing
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Diary the next grease test and clean
The report recommends when the system should next be cleaned and tested, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used.
Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Gaps around filters let grease get past them.
Part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
In healthcare and care settings, kitchens may run from early until late. Testing shows if the cleaning interval keeps pace.
Extract fan and discharge
The extract fan and its housing collect grease too. They’re included in the readings and photos.
Do you need TR19 inspection in Little Kingshill?
Menus, opening hours and cooking styles change over time, and more frying or longer hours mean more grease. The old cleaning schedule may not match the kitchen any more.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
Where a hall near Church of Saints Peter and Paul, or anywhere in Little Kingshill, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
Questions to ask before booking
- When the next visit should be, and why
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- Whether they’re fully insured

Little Kingshill kitchens: local notes
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 7 bars, pubs and nightclubs in and around Little Kingshill, up to about a mile and a half out. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. It’s Buckinghamshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Little Kingshill. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Fire safety in Little Kingshill falls to Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Hughenden Manor is about 3.5 miles south-west), access may need planning.

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
