What is Included in Our PAT Testing Service

Our PAT testing service includes visual inspection, electrical testing where appropriate, pass/fail identification and clear digital records for the appliances tested. This helps businesses and landlords keep organised records for plug-in electrical equipment used in workplaces and rental properties.

We commonly test items such as computers, monitors, kettles, extension leads, chargers, printers, kitchen appliances and other portable electrical equipment. Inspection and testing should be based on equipment type, environment and level of risk rather than one blanket rule for every item.

PAT Testing Prices

£69 for up to 20 items. £0.80 per additional item. For larger sites, higher volumes or multi-room properties, contact us for a tailored quote based on appliance numbers and access requirements.

PAT Testing FAQ

What does PAT testing mean?

PAT testing means portable appliance testing. It is the inspection and testing of portable electrical appliances to help confirm they are safe for continued use.

Who needs PAT testing?

PAT testing is commonly arranged by businesses, landlords, offices, shops, schools, salons, warehouses and other commercial premises that use portable electrical equipment.

Is PAT testing a legal requirement?

There is no blanket rule that every appliance must be PAT tested every year. The key requirement is that electrical equipment is maintained in a safe condition, with inspection and testing based on risk.

Do you provide a certificate?

Yes, we provide clear reporting and certification records after testing, suitable for internal records, audits and inspections.

How long does PAT testing take?

This depends on the number of items, site layout and ease of access. Smaller jobs can often be completed quickly, while larger sites may need more time.
