How we can help you

+ Your home & garden

Our portfolio of domestic work ranges from luxury residences in London’s most prestigious areas to family homes in the suburbs, and apartments in the capital’s finest blocks. Sometimes we’re asked for the nicer things of life: installing garden lighting, multi-room audio, home cinemas, automation systems, or putting up new lights. Sometimes we sort out emergencies, or those annoying little glitches that can be really irritating. Sometimes we’re there for a test and inspection, or to move a phone point, or fit a new socket, either inside or outdoors. Whatever the task, we’re happy to help.

Extensions, refurbishments, basement and loft conversions and solar panel installations are major investments in time and money, so you’ll want to know exactly what will happen right from the start. We provide you with a detailed plan of your electrical works free of charge. You’ll also receive a full itemised quote – not a rough and ready estimate – so that you can save time by making amendments before work begins. Every week we’ll show you how your project is progressing, but if there’s something that can’t wait we’ll be in touch straight away. And at the end of the project you’ll be issued with the right certificates to prove your home is safe.

We know that your time and your home are precious. We try to answer all enquiries promptly, operating by e-mail as well as phone. We’ll book a precise appointment to suit your needs, with prompt and reliable service in the evenings and at weekends too. We’ll arrive when we say we will, or let you know if we can’t as far in advance as possible. And when we arrive we’ll take care of your home. We use dustsheets and coverings to protect your furnishings, and we’ll clean up after the work is done.

If we can help you with your electrical needs, please call us on 020 8451 0345 or e-mail us.

+ Your investment properties

Harland & Voss holds a unique position amongst London electricians. Managing agents across the capital refer to our definitive guide to electrical requirements in residential investment properties. Agents in some of London’s most prestigious areas use us regularly to make sure that problems are solved swiftly and effectively. Yet we remain resolutely committed to serving individual landlords and property investors with our personalised expertise. As a result, we’re currently the only London electrician to have been recommended to the Property Owner’s Directory operated by the National Landlords’ Association.

As NICEIC Approved Contractors, we can undertake periodic inspections of your properties to help you stay within the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985. And we can self-certificate our work to make sure that you don’t fall foul of building control regulations. We can also resolve swiftly any electrical problems encountered by your tenants. We are used to dealing with these aspects of investment property electrical work – and more.

Our guide for property managers is now available to individual landlords on request. If you would like a copy of the guide, please e-mail us and provide a postal address.

If we can help you with your investment properties, please call us on 020 8451 0345 or e-mail us.


+ Your workplace

Our reputation for efficient and reliable service has resulted in a loyal and growing business clientele in and around Central London. Our clients include luxury retailers and restaurants, Harley Street clinics, art galleries, fashion houses, and prestigious West End and City offices.

We're here to help whenever we're needed, whether it's to deal with a sudden crisis, undertake pre-planned maintenance or tackle those small faults that have been bothering everyone for a while. We can move your power or IT outlets to suit your changing needs, and tidy your cables safely out of harm’s way.

Our commercial electricians have extensive experience in workplace lighting, fault-finding, shop and office refurbishments, new installations, door entry systems, safety checks and electrical inspections; in short, everything your workplace needs to keep it running smoothly.


We’ve recently introduced a new service to our commercial customers to protect against power failures. Thermal imaging detects one of the earliest indicators of electrical failure – heat building up in connections and cables. A special camera detects growing hotspots so that problem areas can be fixed before they lead to power failures, expensive repairs and loss of business. Think of it like an X-ray for your electrical system. Thermal imaging can be done without switching off the power in your workplace so business can go on as usual during your normal hours. Any remedial work can then be scheduled for a time that is convenient to you. We are one of very few London companies to be able both to conduct the thermal imaging process and carry out NICEIC-backed repairs, so we won’t waste staff time with avoidable multiple visits.

And, of course, we can help your workplace stay within the law by ensuring your emergency lighting, fire alarms, computers and portable appliances are tested in line with the current regulations.

Please do call us on 020 8451 0345 or e-mail us to discuss your business requirements. We can usually provide out of hours or weekend cover so that there’ll be no disruption to your business whilst the work is done.
