I’ve been thinking about this a lot recently….
One of my absolute favourite things about running a business has never been the electrical work itself. It’s the people.
It’s crazy to think We’ve been doing this for the best part of 7 or 8 years now. Although we work all over Central Scotland these days, the majority of that journey has been spent in and around East Kilbride, and it’s incredible how quickly time passes.
I’ll go back to a customer’s house a few years later and the little kid who was following me around asking questions is suddenly taller than me. Customers I first met while they were still working are now retired and enjoying life. You really do get a front row seat to people’s lives, even if it’s only in small moments.
People are sometimes surprised that I remember them, or that I remember it was their mum, dad, neighbour or friend who recommended them years ago. The truth is, I do remember. I remember every customer we’ve worked for, the conversations we’ve had and the people behind the front door!
That’s one of the things I love most about running a local business. It’s never just about turning up, doing a job and leaving. Over the years you build genuine relationships. Some customers have become people I’d happily call friends.
It always means a lot when someone asks how I’m getting on, how business is, or how the kids are getting on. It probably seems like such a small thing, but it genuinely isn’t. Those conversations remind me that this has always been about more than electrical work.
When I started all those years ago, I just wanted to build a business that people could trust. I never imagined I’d meet so many genuinely kind, funny and supportive people along the way.
So, if we’ve ever worked for you, thank you. Whether it was a small repair, a rewire, an EV charger or anything in between, you’ve been part of the journey, and I genuinely appreciate every bit of support you’ve given us over the years.
I really do feel incredibly lucky to do what I do!
