Testimonials

Trusted by the Industry

Pavement Testing Services provided us with surveys working under an exceptionally tight time frame, the team were extremely accommodating and helpful throughout the duration of the contract.

Communication was prompt and most importantly issues raised were dealt with professionally and swiftly. I would have no hesitation in recommending PTS.

PTS offer a wealth of experience in carrying out both visual and mechanical highway condition surveys and have a sound understanding of the services required to meet WSCC’s own policies and best practice procedures. PTS provide excellent customer focus and adapt to any changes to requests at short notice. PTS have always kept to tight deadlines and deliver a very high standard of performance for which I have no hesitation in recommending them for future highway condition survey contracts of this kind.
