Frequently Asked Questions

PAT testing prices depend on the number of items, the type of environment, and whether testing is carried out during normal working hours. Most businesses pay a simple per‑item rate with a minimum call‑out fee. For larger sites, bulk pricing is usually available. You’ll always receive a clear, upfront quote before any work begins.

PAT testing itself isn’t a specific legal requirement, but UK regulations do require employers, landlords, and duty holders to ensure electrical equipment is safe. PAT testing is the most recognised way to demonstrate compliance.

Testing frequency depends on the type of equipment and the environment it’s used in. Offices may only need annual testing, while workshops, construction sites, and high‑risk environments often require more frequent checks.

It depends on the number and type of appliances. A small office may take under an hour, while larger premises with hundreds of items will take longer. We always aim to minimise disruption to your business.

If an item fails, it will be clearly labelled and removed from service. We’ll explain the issue and advise whether it can be repaired or should be replaced.
