A question we often get from customers is “what are the test and tag prices in Melbourne ?”


The test and tag prices are determined by the type and number of equipment, any special reporting format requested and the labour required for the volume of test and tag. Some providers charge an hourly rate, a unit rate or a combination of both. Most providers will quote you the unit rate and an approximate total cost before the commencement of the work. For large projects it is a good approach to keep you posted on the volume of test and tags completed each day.

Another factor is how you would like your test and tag results. For example, if you want an electronic register with fully traceable results, you may have to account for the extra cost. Some businesses do include that in the unit test rate.

Keep in mind that quality and value are very important when choosing a company, and the cheapest rate you find may not result in a quality test and tag. If the workplace is not fully compliant, it can create huge expenses in the long haul. A quote with higher test and tag prices may not always be rejected simply by looking at the price factor.

Always choose a company with experienced technicians

When comparing the test and tag prices to make a decision
  1. Ensure that the technicians can demonstrate competency and practical experience.
  2. A good idea will be to discuss a few jobs and you would easily identify if  they are knowledgeable
  3. It is equally important to find out what processes and equipment the provider uses for testing and tagging equipment. Also, check how the results will be reported to the business.
  4. Ideally your selected provider should also have equipment testing insurance, public liability insurance, professional indemnity insurance and a workcover.
  5. Last but not the least, you can also ask for a safe work methods statement prior to commencement of the testing.
