About Me

My name is Ian Speakman. I have been working in the electrical industry for over 30 years. I started my career as an electrical apprentice at British Aerospace in 1987. I later gained a degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Manchester Polytechnic. I was a maintenance engineer for over 20 years before starting my own domestic electrical business in 2008. I have been registered as a Domestic Installer with the NICEIC since 2008.

Electrical Fault Diagnosis

Do your fuses blow or circuit breakers trip? Sockets not working? Flickering lights? With over 30 years of experience in maintenance and repair, I am confident I can efficiently find and repair even the most obscure faults, saving you time and money.

Electrical Appliance Repairs

I offer an appliance repair service. Oven repairs, cooker repairs, electric fire and storage heater repairs, boilers, urns, water heater and a wide range of portable equipment, too.

Electrical PAT Testing

I offer a small-scale PAT testing service for small businesses, hotels and landlords. For this I have a minimum charge. If you have a few items, such as power tools or band equipment, you are welcome to drop off it at our premises and I can test it while you wait. This is more economical as there is no call-out fee.

Electrical Installations

I install anything from a new socket to a complete rewire, including: appliances, electric showers (including plumbing), lighting, consumer units, security lights, downlights, cooker hoods, smoke alarms, central heating controls.

Testimonials

Ian re-wired my house recently and I was really thrilled with his work. He is excellent; very thorough, reliable, conscientious and competitively priced. He is efficient and very tidy. I couldn't recommend him more highly!

Melanie S.

This is the first time we have used Ian. He arrived on time and was very pleasant and friendly. He did a very professional job, with minimal mess and disruption and cleaned up after himself. We are very happy with the electrical installation he put in within the timescale he promised and at a very reasonable price. Altogether a very professional job. We would definitely use him again.

Ian Sharples

Every time we have listened to Ian at any jazz venue he has played and sung brilliantly; but, just as importantly, perhaps more so, we cannot fault his positive attitude to his work - a complete lack of negativity once a plan of approach has been decided. He exudes that earthy humorous approach only a Lancastrian can deliver while he works. Give him a job. You won't be disappointed.
