Pat testing

[emacleod]

I know it in here somewhere but I can't find it. My question is do you need a qualification to be able to do pat testing?
Thanks Euan

If you offer pat, set a price list, with quantity breaks, have a minimum value of order and stick to it!

Boring, horrible job. £100 PER item, that would make it worth me while. lol

Don't think anyone who has done pat testing over several years likes it, but it sadly sometimes is part of a larger service that we provide to regular customers, I certainly would never go looking for it.
To make it worthwhile it really needs to be £5.00 per item, but there are not many customers willing to pay that.

£5 most companies charge say 50p an item.

two man job, one to drive while the other is writing up labels, then split up and put a sticker on everything lol

thats how the cheap companies do it so no way you can compete

I only do it to keep the letting agents sweet to get proper jobs off them.
