What Is the Difference Between PAT Testing and an EICR?
PAT testing covers electrical equipment and appliances. An Electrical Installation Condition Report covers the fixed wiring, such as circuits, sockets, lighting and consumer units. One does not replace the other.
Do You Provide Landlord Electrical Safety Checks?
Yes. We provide EICRs for rental properties, landlords and letting agents across Blackpool and the Fylde Coast. If you are looking for a landlord electrical safety certificate, ask us about an Electrical Installation Condition Report.
How Often Should Equipment Be PAT Tested?
There is no blanket requirement to PAT test every appliance annually. Intervals depend on the equipment, how it is used, its environment and previous findings. We can help you consider an appropriate approach.
Will the Testing Interrupt Power?
Some checks require equipment or circuits to be switched off. We discuss access and likely interruptions before the visit so you can plan around the work.
How Much Will the Testing Cost?
We quote for the agreed scope, premises and access. For PAT, an approximate appliance count helps; for an EICR, send the property type and any previous report. Your quote sets out the work and price before booking.
What Happens if a Fault Is Found?
We record the findings and explain the action needed. Failed equipment and installation observations are identified in the relevant records, so you understand the recommended next steps.
