PAT testing for workplaces that need it done properly.

Based in Menston, I offer portable appliance testing for offices, shops and small businesses across West Yorkshire and the towns all around - clear results, labelled appliances and certificates you can keep on file.

PAT testing (portable appliance testing) checks that plug-in electrical equipment in your workplace is safe to use. It is a practical way to reduce electrical risk, support insurance requirements and show you take staff and customer safety seriously.

Existing clients can view certificates anytime in the PAT Portal.

Clear day rates. Tiered by how much you need tested.

PAT testing with J Beattie Consulting is priced for small workplaces - not a mystery per-item spreadsheet after the visit.

Minimum booking

From £200 / day

Day bookings start from £200. That covers a scheduled on-site visit for a typical small workplace run.

Tiered by volume

Scales with appliance count

The final price is tiered based on the amount of appliances tested. More items usually means a clearer day rate once we know the count and site layout.
