Best PAT Testing Company

Choosing the best PAT testing company or at least a good one is not easy and you can read many opinions and views on the internet advising how to select one, there are many myths involved and we will share our thoughts on the topic here.

Common Myths

One of the more common myths used by some of the larger more expensive PAT testing businesses is regarding the price. They will tell you that a company charging lower prices will not complete the testing properly as it cannot be done at the lower rates. Well they would say that would they not? The truth of the matter is it can be done accurately and consistently and HT PAT Testing are a fine example of this. The big companies have big overheads, many company vehicles, a large amount of office staff, office space, higher insurance premiums etc. So it stands to reason that you will pay more to cover these costs as the money has to come from somewhere.

Accreditations

Next you may be told that if a company has various accreditations it proves they test correctly, well this is not necessarily true either. Some of the larger well known accreditations are achieved by being assessed one time and then paying a yearly fee to keep the accreditation. So what does this show? It proves they did it right once at a time they knew they were being assessed.

Short Cuts

The truth is many PAT testing engineers are pressured by their managers to complete a very large amount of tests per day and often the engineers pay increases with the more tests he can perform. This is not good for you as a paying customer because the engineer is being harassed and tempted into taking short cuts.

How Do We Know This?

Prior to setting up HT PAT Testing we were employed by large well known companies who charge almost double our prices. They have various accreditations and employ large numbers of staff. Being one of their engineers was a nightmare, under constant pressure to meet the high volume of tests per day they demanded. Often engineers were not provided with all the various adaptors and equipment required to test thoroughly and accurately. The fact is they did not want the engineers to test correctly as it takes more time meaning less money from them.

PAT Testing Correctly

As our client base grows we test many locations that have previously been tested by other companies and we ALWAYS find signs that testing has not been carried out correctly. We tested a site for a new client that told us they had 4000 tests completed the year prior, when we finished our testing there were only 3500 tests in the building so had the other PAT testing company added 500 tests to the bill?
