Frequently asked questions

PAT testing stands for Portable Appliance Testing. It's used as a method to determine whether or not fixed appliances, consumer electronics & other electrical items in the home & workplace are safe to use.

PAT testing involves a professional completing visual inspections & other tests to check the safety of appliances. They'll then either pass or fail the appliance and provide a certificate.

PAT testing is often used by landlords & employers to ensure that they're carrying out their electrical safety obligations.

Reviews from our happy customers

The job was difficult. I asked to fit posts on very old bricks and these were falling apart when trying to drill. Marcelo was amazing and found an elegant solution. It took longer that expected due to the issue encountered but the job was done at very high standard and looks exactly how I wanted.
