I was happy with the service I received from Energy Cert Scotland for my EPC: courteous, efficient, knowledgeable and reasonably-priced.
Beverley Beddow
£44 for an EPC in Kirkcaldy, I was quoted double that elsewhere. Not just a good price but a friendly service too.
Kian Dunn
Solicitor told me I needed an EPC the day before my house sale to the council was due to conclude. Simon came out exactly at the time stated and ensured I had the certificate same day. Great service!

PAT Testing FAQs
What is a Portable Appliance Test (PAT)
Portable appliance testing (PAT) is an examination of electrical equipment to make sure they are safe to use. This consists of visual inspections and electrical testing of appliances.
Who can carry out a PAT test?
Although there is no legal qualification required, your PAT tester must be competent to test your electrical equipment.
What Kind of devices and appliances need PAT tests?
One of the big myths surrounding PAT is that we only have to test items with a plug. The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 requires PAT testing for all electrical 'Systems' at work and therefore the law does not differentiate between equipment with a plug and that which is wired directly to the supply.
