OUR WORK IN KETTERING

Business: Tresham College Windmill Avenue
Tresham College Kettering is part of the Bedford College Group, they are a key long standing client of ours and we carry out a variety of electrical works at their sites in Bedford, Shuttleworth, Dunstable, Leighton Buzzard, Wellingborough, Kettering, Corby and Silverstone.
This includes many aspects of electrical work ranging from small repairs to large building refurbishments, the installation of structured network cabling including fibre optic cabling, electrical installation condition reports and PAT testing.
At Kettering we have been carrying out the electrical installation condition reports and rectifying any subsequent remedial works at their Windmill Avenue Campus, and at their Learning Centre which is located close to the town centre bus station.
When the learning centre was first opened we carried out the electrical works required to turn it from its previous use as a shop, into its current learning centre format. This included a complete re-wire of the premises and the installation of power, lighting, structured network cabling, fire alarm, door access, intruder alarm and CCTV systems.
