How Smart Service Stickers Transform PAT Testing and Help You Win More Repeat Work

If you're an electrician or PAT testing specialist, you already know the biggest challenge isn't doing the job --- it's getting clients toremember when to call you back next year.

That's where Smart Service Stickers fromWorkbelt come in.

More than just a label, these QR-powered stickers digitally track each tested item, remind your clients when the next test is due, and make it easy for them to rebook you --- all in one scan.

What Are Smart Service Stickers?

Smart Service Stickers are scannable QR code labels applied directly to tested appliances. Each sticker links to a secure online asset profile where your client can:

• View PAT test history
• See pass/fail status and retest date
• Contact you instantly
• Rebook PAT testing with one tap
• Receive automated reminders before tests expire
• Access all compliance records in one place

And for you? It means better client retention, smoother admin, and recurring business you don't have to chase.

Why They're a Game Changer for PAT Testing

Traditional PAT labels wear out, get ignored, or provide almost no value beyond ticking a compliance box. Smart Stickers from Workbelt, on the other hand:

✅ Track Every Test Digitally

Each sticker becomes a digital record of that specific asset. Log the item type, test result, date, and any notes directly from your Workbelt dashboard.

🔁 Secure Repeat Work

Set a reminder for when the item needs to be retested --- 6 months, 12 months, or any custom cycle. The client is automatically notified before the deadline and can rebook you instantly.

🧑‍💼 Impress Facility Managers

Whether you're servicing an office, shop, workshop, school or rental property --- your clients get an organised, professional tool that helps them stay compliant and avoid fines.

🧾 Provide a Full Test History

Instead of keeping loose reports or emails, each item has its own digital trail. Your clients can easily show their insurer, HSE inspector, or landlord the full test record.

Real-World Use Cases for Smart Stickers in PAT Testing

🏢 Offices & Shared Workspaces

Stick to kettles, monitors, PCs, extension leads, heaters. Facility managers scan to see last tested date and schedule rebooking.

🛠️ Workshops & Garages

Power tools, chargers, compressors --- each gets its own Smart Sticker, and you set reminders for quarterly or annual tests.

🏠 Rental & HMO Properties

Letting agents and landlords love the clarity. Stickers on microwaves, vacuums, or washing machines show which items passed, when they were tested, and when they're due again.

🎓 Schools, Nurseries, Care Homes

Keep records for safeguarding and compliance. Staff can scan to report an issue or check test status before use.

Step-by-Step: Using Smart Stickers for PAT Testing

🔧 Step 1: Test the Item

Complete your PAT testing using your normal equipment and method.

🏷️ Step 2: Apply the Smart Sticker

Place the Workbelt Smart Service Sticker where it's clearly visible but protected (usually near the plug or power input).

📲 Step 3: Log the Result

Use the Workbelt app or online dashboard to register the asset. Enter:

• Item type (e.g. "Kettle -- Staff Room")
• Test date
• Pass/fail result
• Retest interval (e.g. 12 months)
• Any notes or reference numbers

📆 Step 4: Set Reminders

The system will automatically send reminders to the client when a test is nearing expiry. You can also follow up manually if you like --- but most trades let Workbelt handle it.

🔁 Step 5: Get Rebooked Automatically

The client clicks the rebook link, picks a date, and you've got a job without lifting a finger.

How This Grows Your PAT Business

With Smart Stickers, you're not just selling compliance --- you're offering convenience and professionalism. And your customers will love you for it.

Let's say you PAT test 200 items for a client. That's:

• ✅ 200 stickers at ~50p each
• ✅ ~£100 investment
• 🔁 But next year, even if just 50% rebook, that could mean £800--£1500 in recurring revenue
• ✅ And each sticker acts as a branded referral source if scanned by new staff or building managers

Multiply that across a few clients and you've got a solid, repeatable income stream that scales without more chasing.

Bonus: It's Not Just for PAT

The same stickers can also be used on:

• Fuse boards
• Fire alarms
• Emergency lighting
• Air conditioning units
• Any asset needing regular inspection or service

You only pay for stickers you use, and the system is tied to your active subscription --- with no complex credits or caps.

Final Thoughts: Be the Pro Who Never Gets Forgotten

In the world of PAT testing, the difference between a one-off job and a long-term contract is simple: organisation and visibility.

Smart Service Stickers make it effortless to:

• Stay compliant
• Get rebooked
