No. It is the Shortlands page in W6, west London. Other W6 neighbourhoods have their own URLs so the postcode on the request stays accurate.

Can I book more than one check on the same W6 visit?

Yes, if access is available. Say gas, EICR, EPC or PAT on the quote so we can plan the Shortlands appointment as one attendance where possible.

PAT is booked more often for HMOs and offices than for a single W6 AST. It is still available from £59 if you want a portable-appliance check.
