LEV guide
How Much Does LEV Testing Cost?
LEV testing cost depends on the number of extraction points, system complexity, sector, location, access constraints, previous documentation and whether follow-up or retesting is needed.

What affects price
A single simple extraction unit is different from a workshop with multiple hoods, branches, collectors, booths and access constraints. Photos and old reports usually make quoting easier.
Why vague quotes are slow
Examiners need enough information to estimate time on site and test complexity. Missing machine counts, photos or previous reports create back-and-forth.
How to get a faster quote
Send postcode, sector, extraction point count, photos, previous report and any urgent deadline. We package this into a cleaner quote request.
Useful source links
For regulatory context, see HSE guidance on local exhaust ventilation and HSE LEV frequently asked questions. These pages help organise the quote and evidence process; they do not replace competent technical advice.
