TR19 inspection in Temple
A fixed schedule does not always match how a kitchen really cooks. In a busy kitchen, grease can build faster than the minimum intervals allow for, and only measurement shows it. Our readings give your risk assessment real numbers to work from. If you are dealing with uncertainty over how often to clean and systems that need surveying before cleaning, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Temple, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Report grease dripping from the canopy
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
You get a report with the grease readings, where they were taken and pictures of each point. File it alongside your TR19 certificates.
Keep all TR19 records together so the history is easy to show.

What else we do in Temple
What we do, step by step
We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. Somewhere as small as Temple, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- First we book a time that won’t disrupt cooking.
- We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
- We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
- Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
- The findings go into a report with readings, pictures and a recommended next clean.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Why deal with it now?
An EHO visit, an insurance renewal or a fire risk assessment is a bad time to find your extract records are thin. A recent inspection report means you are ready when asked. Planning a trip to Temple ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
Temple kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records include about 13 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 4 hotels and B&Bs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Temple. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. The fire and rescue service for Temple is 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. In Temple, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Windsor and Maidenhead council. 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.
Historic houses near Temple, such as Harleyford Manor about 0.9 miles west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Marlow Community Hospital about 1.7 miles north-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of All Saints or anywhere around Temple, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
Temple is about 2 miles south of Marlow, in Buckinghamshire. Temple gets the same approach as every site we work on: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where necessary and a written report with photos. Our area takes in 263 places across Buckinghamshire, large and small. We also work in Reading, around 11 miles away.

Different parts, different methods
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Heavy use under BESA guidance, 12 to 16 hours a day, means a clean at least every 3 months, and readings show whether that is enough.
Vertical risers
Risers carry the extract up through the building. Grease can run down and collect at the base, so we check there.
What a clean won’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Mechanical faults in the extract
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- Parts of the duct nobody can reach yet
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on in Temple
- Post-clean checks
- Wet film thickness tests
- Insurer audits
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Pre-clean surveys
What staff can safely do
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Temple: your questions answered
Who is the fire and rescue service for Temple?
Fire safety enforcement in Temple is handled by Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Do you work at weekends in Temple?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Temple does not have to lose a day’s trading. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
How much does TR19 inspection cost in Temple?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before work begins.
Do you work in Temple?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, and that includes Temple.
How often should a kitchen extract be inspected?
We suggest a next test date in every report, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used. A risk assessment based on measured grease should set the interval.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
How do you measure grease in a kitchen extract?
It’s a measurement of how much grease is coating the inside of the extract, using the Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or Deposit Thickness Test (DTT). Each reading is recorded in microns.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
After a clean, we take new readings and pictures to show how the system was left. It can follow our own cleans or another contractor’s.
