Portable Appliance Testing PAT Testing near me
At Birmingham Electrical, we take pride in our reasonable and flexible pricing structure. We provide Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) services at competitive and affordable rates that are geared towards meeting your particular needs. We guarantee to keep your business disruptions low while maintaining your PAT Testing-related costs at a minimum.
The Cost of Our PAT Services
Because we tailor our services to suit your specific requirements, it allows us to keep our PAT Testing rates low. We can perform PAT Testing services on a per-item basis, at 99p per item. In some instances, we can even charge on a per-day rate, if you prefer, and if it will allow you to save on your testing costs.
Various factors can affect the cost of our services. These include the number of items we need to test, the working environment, and your location. For on-site testing, we peg our PAT Testing charges at a very competitive base rate of only £60.00.
Considering the cost of non-compliance with local safety and electrical regulations, we believe that our rates are cost-effective and offer good value to your home or business.
When you contact us to inquire about the testing costs, please be ready to provide the number of appliances you have for testing. This way, it can help us provide a more accurate quote.
As a guide, portable appliances can be defined as all appliances with an attached plug that you can plug into a wall outlet. These include computers, printers, monitors, microwave ovens, and even cables and kettles and other similar items that need to be tested.
Note that our low and competitive prices – lower than average – are not an indication of low-quality service. You can rest assured that despite our low rates, we never compromise on quality!
If by chance, you already have a quote from another testing service provider, just let us know, and we will try to match, if not beat it. This way, you can comply with all the regulations while keeping your valued tenants or staff safe. At the same time, you spend less on appliance testing expenses.

PAT Services for Business
It is your responsibility, as an employer and business owner, to keep your customers and employees safe. One way to comply with this requirement is by availing of PAT services. Without a regular appliance testing program in place, you can have issues with your insurance company when you need to file for electrical-related injury claims.
When providing insurance coverage, insurers assume that the applicant is compliant with all necessary regulations. Claims for damage may be delayed, reduced or outright refused by insurance companies if the damage is due to an appliance that hasn’t been tested.
PAT Services for Landlords
If your business involves letting residential accommodations like flats, houses, holiday homes, bedsits, boats, and caravans, the law requires you, as the landlord, to ensure all equipment you provide as part of the contract of tenancy, are safe. PAT services for landlords can help you comply.
A planned PAT program will help you avoid possible legal liabilities for damages that may result from the portable appliances you supply. These include microwave ovens, freezers and refrigerators, vacuum cleaners and TV sets.
