    Lie Detector Test Cardiff & South Wales

    Straight Answers When Nothing Else Has Worked

    The question does not fade on its own; it just gets heavier. One examination at our Cardiff Gate or Chepstow office, and by this time tomorrow you will simply know. That goes for proving your own honesty as much as testing someone else's. Examinations are conducted by examiners trained to police standards in interviewing, and we take on a limited number each week.

    Single-Issue Testing for Accurate Results

    Relationship Test

    from £399

    When you suspect a partner has been unfaithful, not knowing is its own kind of torture. One issue, examined properly under controlled conditions at our Cardiff Gate or Chepstow office, gives you a clear result within 24 hours. Some clients get reassurance. Others get confirmation. Either way, the wondering stops.

    Couples Test

    from £695

    Sometimes both partners need to be heard. With a couples test you are each examined on the same issue, back to back on the same day, and you both see the results. It costs less than booking two separate tests and it means neither of you goes home still wondering about the other.

    Pre-Employment Screening

    from £449

    Hiring for a role that involves cash, keys or confidential information carries real risk, and references only tell you so much. A voluntary screening examination adds a layer of assurance that an interview cannot. South Wales employers use us for exactly this reason.

    Theft Investigation

    from £449

    Money or property has gone missing and everyone is looking sideways at each other. A single issue test resolves it, clearing the people who had nothing to do with it and narrowing down where the problem actually lies. Often the innocent are the ones who ask for the test.

    Booked means booked

    There are two ways to book a lie detector test in the UK. They are not the same.

    Most polygraph websites

    • 1Pay a £125 to £150 deposit, often non-refundable
    • 2Fill in a form with your preferred dates
    • 3Wait for a call, typically 3 to 5 days out
    • 4Card only, an examiner assigned, a room hired for the day
    Booking here
    • See the actual calendar with real free slots
    • Pay in full, or secure eligible dates with a deposit
    • Spread the cost with Klarna at checkout
    • Confirmed the moment payment completes
    • Our own offices, our own examiners, every week

    A deposit here is not a fee to join a queue. It confirms a real appointment, instantly. To our knowledge, no other UK polygraph service offers instant confirmed booking or takes Klarna.

    Evenings, weekends, or unable to travel?

    Our home visit service brings the same examiners, the same instruments and the same instant booking to your own front room, seven days a week with the last examination starting at 8pm. Enter your postcode and see real visit times for your address.

    Your Examiner

    Professional polygraph and lie detector testing facility in Cardiff with Stoelting CPS examination equipment

    A note from your examiners: you will not find our names or faces on this website, and that is deliberate. The nature of this work means examiners here stay anonymous, and the same discretion that protects us is what protects every client we test. What we can tell you is that we are trained to police standards in interviewing, and that the words clients use most about their examinations are rarely the ones they expected to use.

    "You are very calming." "Thank you so much for putting me at ease." Said to us by recent clients, during and after their examinations.

    Testing at Cardiff Gate and Chepstow is carried out by examiners trained to police standards in interviewing before qualifying in polygraph. Between them they have run hundreds of examinations for private and business clients, and they understand how difficult the circumstances behind a booking can be. Nobody here will judge you, and nobody will rush you.

    Standards matter in this field because very little else protects the client. Our examiners work to American Polygraph Association standards, keep their training current through yearly professional development, and use validated question techniques rather than improvised ones.

    Every examiner is also Enhanced DBS checked for your peace of mind.

    Choosing a Legitimate Lie Detector Examiner

    Anyone in the UK can buy a polygraph instrument and start charging for tests tomorrow. There is no licence and no official register, so checking who you are dealing with falls to you. This is what we would look for:

    Red Flags to Avoid

    • No physical charts or data provided with results
    • Home tests with no screening of the room or conditions
    • Prices significantly below £350
    • Same-day results promised before the test
    • Multiple issues tested in one session
    • No formal pre-test interview
    • Unwillingness to explain the process
    • No verifiable training or experience

    What We Provide

    • Comprehensive report with physiological charts
    • Permanent offices at Cardiff Gate Business Park and in Chepstow
    • Computerised polygraph equipment (£8,000+ value)
    • Single-issue testing for maximum accuracy
    • APA testing protocols followed
    • Full transparency about the process
    • Verifiable qualifications and experience
    • Professional, unhurried examination

    Every client receives the full report, charts included. The charts are the raw recording of your heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and skin response during the test. They are what your result is based on, and you are entitled to see them. If an examiner will not hand them over, it is worth asking why.

    Where our clients travel from

    Every examination takes place at our Cardiff Gate office, just off M4 junction 30, or at our office in Chepstow. These are the towns our clients most often travel from, and how they get here.

    How It Works

    1

    Booking

    Book online through our secure system. Pay in full, or secure your date with a deposit and the balance is collected automatically two days before your test. You'll receive immediate confirmation, preparation instructions and the full address of your chosen office.

    2

    Pre-Test Interview

    On arrival, your examiner will spend 45-60 minutes discussing the issue and formulating the exact questions to be asked. This ensures the test addresses your specific concern precisely.

    3

    The Examination

    The entire process takes approximately 90 minutes. You'll be connected to the polygraph instrument which monitors physiological responses whilst you answer a series of yes/no questions.

    4

    Results

    Preliminary results are discussed immediately after the test. A full written report, including physiological charts and detailed analysis, is provided within 24 hours.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Get answers to the most common questions about polygraph testing

    It rarely feels proportionate to book a lie detector test, and that feeling stops a lot of people. Yet almost every client we see in Cardiff waited weeks longer than they wanted to. If the question keeps returning, it has already answered whether it matters. The test just answers the rest, and quickly.

    Card statements show a short LPI reference and nothing else. No mention of polygraph, testing or Cardiff Polygraph Services appears anywhere on the transaction, so the booking stays private even on a shared account.

    A test only works with free, written consent, so nobody can be made to take one, and we would refuse to run it if they were pressured. What we can say from experience is that offering a fair test changes conversations. Some partners agree. Some confess. A refusal without reasons is information too.

    Run properly, a single issue polygraph test is accurate somewhere between 90 and 98 percent. Where a test sits in that range depends on things you can check before you book: who trained the examiner, what equipment they use, where the test takes place and whether validated question techniques are followed. An accredited examiner in a controlled office sits at the top of the range. A cheap test at a kitchen table does not.

    No, and this is the thing people worry about most. Nerves show up as a general pattern across the whole examination, not as the specific responses an examiner scores against. Almost everyone we test is anxious, truthful people included. Being honest and terrified is still being honest, and the scoring reflects that.

    Our single issue tests in Cardiff are £399, booked and paid online. Across the UK you will see prices from about £395 up to £550, and some national firms charge £495 for the same test here in Cardiff. Our price covers the pre-test interview, the examination at our Cardiff Gate or Chepstow office and the full written report with charts. There is nothing extra to pay afterwards.

    No. If your appointment is more than three days away you can secure it with a £149 deposit, and the balance is collected automatically from the same card two days before your test. Nothing to remember, nothing to pay on the day. The deposit is non-refundable — it protects the appointment we hold exclusively for you — and if you would rather settle everything upfront you can pay in full, including in three instalments with Klarna.
