PAT Testing for Coffee Shops & Cafés

We provide safety inspections and testing of electrical equipment to reduce the risk of electrical accidents; generally referred to as PAT testing. We do this for all businesses and other workplaces, including coffee shops, cafe’s etc. across the North East of England. From our North Tyneside base we cover the east coast up to Alnwick and Morpeth in Northumberland, down the A1 to Durham and across to Seaham Harbour, ,and surrounding areas. Wherever you are, get in touch to see what we can do for you.

We have a wealth of experience, and a team of professionals ready to help you. We’re all very proud to serve fellow North East businesses, and reduce the risks from faulty electrical equipment.

•  We’re all suitably qualified, DBS checked and fully insured.
• We provide you with the service you need to ensure your electrical equipment is safe – we carry out repairs automatically, reporting anything that fails, provide free replacement plugs and fuses, and remove old labels before fitting our own, neat and tidy.
• On completion you are sent a PDF document PAT Testing Certificate Report that details all appliances tested, and the test results, including electrical readings – essential if you ever get inspected by the authorities (and not provided by most of our competitors).
• We also send reminders when retests are due, so you don’t need to remember the next time.
• We are also able to help you with your fixed wiring inspections (EICR), fixed appliances and other electrical safety measures.

Running a café or coffee shop is busy enough — the last thing you need is electrical issues slowing you down.

We know that running a business is hard work, it’s none stop, but all your time is taken up with trying to perfect your craft and fight off the local competition. We don’t have time to keep on top of all the other things we have to do, that’s why we enlist the help of others. We have our accountants, printers, plumbers and our PAT testers!

Electrical systems need to be safe – we need to have good emergency lighting that meets the latest standards, we need to have safe wiring in our walls that meets the latest guidance and we need to ensure our electrical appliances are maintained to the appropriate safety levels so as to prevent danger.

We can help you with all of these; but what we specialise in, is testing portable appliances (PAT testing).

We have worked in countless coffee shops, cafe’s etc so we know we can help you, if you’ve had a bad experience with a PAT tester in the past, we’re going to fix that, we are experts in what we do and our reviews reflect that. We will work with you, and around you to ensure minimal disruption for your business and maximum safety.

Even if you just need a broken plug changed, even if we don’t work with you yet, get in touch, we’ll call in and fix it for you.
