Our team can work around the day-to-day running of your business, if you need little down-time to your business we can undertake services around your staff, during evenings, on weekends or overnight depending on your specific requirements.

 

How it works:

Corton Audio work hard to bring the most seamless solution to our clients & customers.

- Initial contact;

- Workplace/site visit to determine the best solution for your needs;

- Quotation/contract stage;

- Work undertaken;

- Test Tag Register sent to your nominated email address or provided to client;

- Electronic notification when items require re-test tag to ensure items remain compliant.

 

If an item fails:

If an item fails inspection or testing, it is immediately removed from service by our team and notified to you. Unfortunately we don't undertake any direct repairs on item/s unless we feel appropriate to keep the item's in service. A repair may be undertaken (such as fit and install a new plug where one has failed inspection), this may be done directly to allow the item to be repaired and taken back into service immediately. Alternatively we remove the item from service, alert the client and then can repair the item at a later date or provide the item to the client for removal off asset registers.

 

Important note:

It is important to note that when an item is inspected, tested and tagged it is only considered "safe" at that particular moment our team undertake test tag activities, We highly recommend you implement a visual inspection on every item, prior to use, as damages can occur to equipment minutes after we test them.

 

For an example: We have undertaken test tag activities at a school where an angle grinder was passed in the morning, by the afternoon one of our team walking back through the classroom to continue work could clearly see that the supply cable (power cable) to the electric grinder that was sitting on a table had the cable caught around the disc of the grinder causing severe damage to the supply cable. This item was removed from service by our team.

 

This scenario above does enforce the fact that individual inspection is paramount to the safety of those working around electrical equipment and just because it has a valid test tag, doesn't mean it is considered safe. Testing & tagging is only a specific undertaking to implement a way of the periodic checking, inspecting and testing of equipment. Our team have found thousands of unsafe, recalled and damaged items in workplaces over the years and it goes to show that testing & tagging is important in all workplaces.

Our team comprises of professional trained staff and also include: Audio Visual technicians, Electricians, Electronics technicians & Sound Engineers. Our team handle tools, electrical items and equipment daily, it's what we do and it's your guarantee the team behind your workplace safety - testing & tagging is there with you right from the start!
