Lightning Protection Maintenance & Repairs
Repairs to failed tapes, clamps, test points and earth electrodes, so your system passes its next test.
- Independent inspectors
- BS EN 62305
- Certificate every test
- Midlands, South & Wales
Most failures on a lightning test are simple: a loose or missing clamp, a broken tape, a test clamp painted over or an earth pit filled with soil.
We fix the defects found on test, replace missing components and re-test the affected parts, so your certificate reflects a working system.

FAQs
Common questions
Can repairs be done on the same visit as testing?
Small repairs often can. Larger work is quoted after the test so you can approve it first.
Do you need access equipment for repairs?
Some repairs need a cherry picker or roof access. We include this in the quote.
Will we get a new certificate after repairs?
Yes. Repaired parts are re-tested and the certificate is updated.
