Services
PAT Testing
Our PAT Testing service ensures electrical equipment safety through visual inspections and advanced testing. We label each appliance with a unique code and provide detailed PDF certificates, complying with IET and HSE guidelines. Ideal for landlords, businesses, and homeowners seeking compliance with health and safety regulations.
EPCs
We provide Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) to assess property energy efficiency. Accredited by Elmhurst Energy, our surveys evaluate insulation, heating systems, and construction to produce A-G rated certificates valid for 10 years. Required for property sales or rentals, with rapid turnaround times.
Legionella Risk Assessments
Our Legionella Risk Assessments identify hazards in water systems to prevent Legionnaires' disease. We inspect tanks, pipework, and temperature controls, issuing detailed reports with remediation plans. Valid for two years, compliant with ACOP L8 and HSG274 regulations for commercial and residential properties.
EICRs
Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) evaluate fixed wiring safety in domestic and commercial properties. Our qualified engineers test for defects, earthing issues, and compliance with BS 7671 standards, providing clear documentation for landlords or property transactions.
Emergency Lighting Testing
We test emergency lighting systems to ensure functionality during power failures. Compliance with BS 5266 standards is verified through duration tests, battery checks, and logbook updates, guaranteeing safety in commercial premises and multi-occupancy buildings.

I found James from UK PAT by a simple Google search and decided to call based on his great reviews. He was very professional, gave me all the information that I needed and booked me in very quickly. James service was efficient, professional and friendly. I'm really glad I found UK PAT and I will 100% be using his services in the future. Thanks very much James.

Thank you. Very happy with my legionnaires risk assessment. The government specifies you need one for letting and whilst in theory you could do one yourself this would involve reading around the subject, doing the survey yourself and the effort to create a risk assessment (you need proof). Much easier to pay someone with experience to do a professional job. Detailed, reasonably priced report coming with a few useful recommendations.

James was excellent. Accommodated me on a public holiday at short notice. I needed a couple of items PAT tested and it turned out one had a loose earth cable which he tightened and got the job done in good time. I would have no hesitation recommending James.

James came out to do a legionella's risk assessment and a PAT testing certificate for me. He was prompt in replying to emails and professional. I received my certificates the very next day after he visited the flat. There was a small issue with the address of the flat but James rectified it very promptly. I recommend his services.

We were extremely pleased with the service we received from James who carried out the PAT Testing at our church with efficiency and professionalism. He has a very pleasant manner and willingly worked around the activities we had on. His written report arrived very promptly following his visit and had been prepared with accuracy and attention to detail. His rates were very reasonable compared with some other companies we contacted.
