Pitot Static tests/altimeter/ASI calibration checks are called up on each Annual Inspection. I take it that you have compared altimeter readings against another aircraft with the same field barometric setting?
A maintenance organisation doesn't calibrate altimeters, btw - they would be sent away to an instrument repair facility if defective.
