Professional PAT Testing Service in Cheshire
Ensuring Electrical Safety Across Chester
At Cheshire PAT Testing, we deliver reliable Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) to businesses, landlords, and organisations throughout Chester. Our experienced engineers are fully qualified and use calibrated test equipment to ensure every portable appliance is compliant with the latest UK safety regulations. Whether you operate a retail shop, office, school, salon or rental property, we ensure your equipment is safe to use and fully documented for legal and insurance purposes.
Each appliance tested is clearly labelled with a pass or fail status, and you’ll receive a digital certificate and comprehensive report outlining the test results. This allows you to maintain compliance with The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, while also protecting staff, visitors, and tenants from the risk of electric shock or fire. For local Chester businesses, this peace of mind is essential—and we’re proud to be trusted across the city and beyond.
We understand that downtime can impact productivity, so our engineers schedule testing at times that work for your business. Whether that’s during regular working hours or early mornings and weekends, we offer flexible appointments to reduce disruption.
Why Chester Businesses Choose Us
Chester has a wide range of businesses—from large office spaces and multi-let properties in the city centre to small retailers and cafés in Hoole and Handbridge. Each has different needs, but one common requirement: keeping electrical appliances safe. Cheshire PAT Testing is known for reliability, clarity, and fast turnaround times. Many clients use us every year due to our consistent quality and helpful, local service.
By keeping testing thorough but efficient, we make the process straightforward. You’ll know exactly what’s tested, what passed, and what failed, with clear follow-up advice if something needs replacing or retesting. No jargon, just simple service you can trust.
In Chester’s competitive business environment, reputation matters. Being able to show that your workplace is safe, compliant, and well-maintained sends a clear message to customers, employees, and insurers. Our testing gives you documented evidence of this, supporting your wider health and safety efforts.
What Does Our PAT Testing Service Include?
Our PAT Testing service in Cheshire includes a full inspection and test of all portable electrical appliances within your premises. We test everything from standard office equipment like computers, monitors, and printers, to more industrial tools such as drills, catering appliances, and site-specific machinery. Each item is clearly labelled with a pass or fail sticker and assigned a unique ID for tracking.
As part of our service, you’ll receive a digital certificate and detailed asset register listing all tested items. This documentation is essential in the event of an insurance claim or health and safety audit. Our engineers also take the time to explain any failed items and offer practical advice on replacements or repairs. We aim to make the whole process as straightforward and non-disruptive as possible.

Do You Need PAT Testing?
If you’re unsure, the answer is likely yes.
Most insurers and H&S advisors recommend annual PAT testing, especially in:
-
Rented properties
-
Shops and cafés
-
Salons, clinics, and workshops
Fixed wiring alone isn’t enough — portable appliances are used more frequently and often suffer wear and tear.
Don’t wait for an accident or inspection to find out you’re not compliant.

-
Self-employed hairdresser
-
Landlord with a portfolio
-
Facilities manager for a school or estate
…we’ll tailor a simple, effective testing plan that meets your needs.
