PAT testing across Leicester, district by district
Leicester is our home city, so travel time is short and we can usually fit a job in the same week. Here's the kind of work we do where.
City Centre & Cultural Quarter
Creative studios, agencies and independent offices. Loading is tight around St George's, so we park up on Rutland Street and work floor by floor with trolleys — no lift-blocking.
New Walk & Granby Street
Solicitors, accountants and surveyors in period conversions. Lots of desk IT, kitchenettes and multi-way extension leads, which are the most common fail we find.
Meridian & Grove Park
Business-park offices and distribution units. We test warehouse chargers, mezzanine kitchen gear and workshop hand tools alongside the office equipment.
Fosse Park & Highcross retail
Tills, POS, back-of-house and display appliances. We work before opening or after close so trading isn't interrupted.
Clarendon Park & Queens Road
Dental practices, cafés and independent retail. CQC-ready reporting for the practices, and a fast in-and-out for the food businesses.
Student HMOs — Clarendon Park, Evington, Highfields
Landlord and agent portfolios tested between tenancies, with one certificate per address plus a portfolio summary.
