About:
City & Guilds qualified electrical technician based in Chatteris, Cambridgeshire with over 35 years experience of working in unique environments designing and installing a wide range of standard and bespoke electrical and high security solutions, returning back to self employment after retiring in order to keep the grey matter working and to offer great level of service and value to the consumer.
My business name reflects the three core elements that I have a particular interest in providing, these being:
Secure –
Security of people and property by the supply and installation of electronic or physical means.
Electrical –
Focusing on all aspects of smart technology including data/home network cabling and infrastructure and of course, electrical minor works which are outside of Building Control scope and do not require Building Control certification.
Solutions –
I want to help get small jobs done, even DIY ones, also you may have a requirement that needs a novel and innovative solution to get the desired result using electrical controls, automation or electronic interfacing.
I can help with all of the above, just get in touch to see the art of the possible 🙂
Trading Status:
The business is not trading at the moment whilst I bring myself up to date with the latest 18th edition wiring regulations. The books are out and the study started!
This site will no longer be under construction when I start trading.
