I don't, no
Do you correct all NCS situations before you leave a job then?
I think the correct method is to inform the customer, ask if they would like it updating, let them know the cost.
If they say "no thanks" then there is nowt that i can do.

I meant on a service.
your apology is accepted.
When called out to undertake a service, I explain to my customers that a visual inspection, let by test and tightness test will be carried out before anything else and that it is included in the price of the service. I also explain to them that any faults that are picked up during this test which require rectification, will be subject to an extra charge.
On occasion, a customer has said to me that they do not want me to carry out this action and that they just want the boiler servicing. Fine, I explain to them that their decision is not advisable and then isolate the boiler at the appliance, carry out the service and state quite clearly on the service paperwork that the ecv has not been touched and that the installation has not been tightness tested at the customer's request.
At the end of the day, this is a commercial descision. If I did the test and found a leak at the start of the job, the customer may refuse to pay for the labour to rectify this if they had not given permission for the test to be done.
To be fair, most customers are happy for me to do a whole barrage of tests as I explain to them that it really is for the best and will give them peace of mind and increased safety. I agree that carrying out a TT before work is very good pracice as it indemnifies you against any faults that are there already and ensures that you can check any work you have done from a known base point (ie, no leaks when you got there).
