Our Services


Heritage Testing Ltd is an independent commercial laboratory & test consultancy, serving the private, public, conservation, commercial, & industrial sectors.

Unlike most of the larger laboratories, which have tended to  sacrifice personal service for a more 'factory-orientated' approach, our clients can rely on us for a specialised Physical & Chemical testing, interpretation, & problem solving service, individually matched to each customer's requirements.
