EASA cert'd instrument repairs

Hi all, anyone on here know where in the uk i can send aircraft instruments to be serviced/repaired and returned with an EASA form 1 attached?

I have an altimeter from one of our gliders that is reading below by 8 Hpa!!! Not good!!

I have found a couple of people who can service, or offer reconned units but none with EASA form 1 certificates.

Any help welcome.

Does your altimeter have a small screw adjacent to the adjustment knob? If so it's a relatively easy job to make the adjustment yourself. Loosen the screw and turn the knob to the required hectopascals and then tighten the screw.

We'll looking for some refit for cabin plus also Avionic and Electrical Design mods. Mostly XLS650 and such types.

Anybody know of companies that provide a good service for a small outfit say within UK;

We heard of J & C Engineering Services Ltd, AeroLogic Ltd, Ramco?

Appreciate any thoughts or guidance,
