Excellent, friendly and efficient service. We have a lot of staff that work flexibly and Richard was happy to pop back at a later date to test their equipment which we hadn’t initially mentioned. Would recommend DRA to any organisation that needs appliance testing carried out. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

What will PAT Testing cost?

The benefit of using us over a cheaper supplier is that we don’t charge extra for repairs or replacement parts, we provide a full itemised report with electrical readings and we are one of the longest trading PAT testing companies in the UK.
We also provide you with complimentary guidance on retest periods, and for ongoing support; which others usually charge extra for.
Why do we need to PAT Test electrical appliances?
Electrical appliances provided for use at work must be safe to use at all times, and in the event of an accident you may be required to provide evidence that you have done appropriate maintenance to ensure equipment is safe – A PAT Certificate would do that. If you choose us you will get a PAT test certificate including an itemised list of every appliance inspected and tested and peace of mind that your equipment is safe. You’ll also get guidance on how often you should inspect electrical equipment to maintain safe equipment and comply with the legal regulations.
