Kitchen extracts in Sedrup
Food Standards Agency data counts about 6 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 3 takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Sedrup. For any of them with a canopy, measuring grease is better than guessing when to clean. Sedrup sits within the area of 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 Sedrup. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Church and community hall kitchens, near St Mary's Church or anywhere around Sedrup, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Stone Church of England Combined School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

TR19 inspection in Sedrup, done properly
A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. We look at the system, take grease readings and photograph what we find, so the quote and the clean fit the real system. If you are dealing with kitchens taken over with no cleaning records and ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits, we can help.
In a small place like Sedrup, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Do not wait for an EHO visit or insurance renewal to find gaps in your extract records. A recent inspection report means you are ready when asked. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Sedrup?
Records can go missing when a business changes hands or contractors. With no history, the current state of the extract is a guess.
The symptoms we are asked about most are:
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
A hospital like St John's Hospital, about 1.5 miles west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

How it works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Sedrup.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
Get a fixed quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted properly
- Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- Flag oily drips near the extract
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 is not left building in hidden parts.
When it’s something else
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- A faulty or failing extract fan
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

What the work involves, part by part
Horizontal duct runs
Grease can gather thickly at bends and along long runs, well away from where anyone looks.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Inspections are done when the kitchen is closed or quiet so the kitchen keeps cooking.
