The price list
Calibration services price list: UK labs' own published prices
Updated
Of 35 UK calibration labs and sellers read on 28 October 2026, 6 print a price on their own page. Here is every figure, by instrument, ex VAT where the lab says so. Most are 'from' prices: a floor for a standard instrument, not a quote for yours.
Every published calibration price, by instrument
Each row is a sentence on the lab's own page, read through our fetch service on the date shown. A 'from' price is the lab's floor for that instrument type; ranges, extra test points and UKAS certificates usually cost more.

What the list leaves out
Collection and on-site work are charged on top. One courier service that carries instruments to labs publishes collection from £50 ex VAT, and one maker that calibrates force testers on site publishes regional call-out fees from £225.
