Shaw Electrical & Security
The whole family work at Shaw Electrical, my eldest son Tyler is in his final year at college and will qualify as a electrician in 2019 and then there is my youngest son Spencer has just left school this year and has started to work for the family business and is very keen to become an electrician.

My wife Denise retired from a 30 year nursing career a few years ago and now takes care of all our paperwork and administration for the business. Myself (Wayne Shaw) is an a City and Guilds time-served electrician with over 28 years electrical experience having carried out my training in Nottingham at a company called Barker and Sheldon and attending the then Peoples Collage where qualifications for an approved electrician was gained.
Services
We are NICEIC approved domestic installer electricians based in West Hallam, Ilkeston, Derbyshire. We have over 29 years of electrical and security expertise and provide our servcies throughout Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire and beyond. Our electrical expertise does not stop at basic electrical services like a rewire or repairing of electrical items.
We carry out work for many local builders in the Ilkeston area being their preffered electricians but some home owners prefer to project manage all the different trades required and we are happy to help. We can offer an initial free of charge visit to your prospective building project and offer advice.
There are still some old type consumer units out there that use fuse wire and should be replaced without hesitation as its the bigest cause of fire in the home, most fires normally start in the consumer unit. We work to the latest 18th edition regulations and can replace these with metal type units that are sealed and made from non combustible materials to stop fires before they start.
When it comes to lighting your property it may be for security purposes or simple amenity lighting for lighting pathways or doorways we can offer free advice on what would be suitable for your needs.

Here we have a LED floodlight that is just as bright as the older type halogen floodlights that you may already have but has several advantages over halogen type lighting that includeds they use a fraction of the power of older type floodlights and you'll never have to change a lamp again.
The smart home revolution is truly here so you can control pretty much anything these days with just your voice through either Alexa or Google Home devices. The problem is smart switches require alterations and in some cases rewiring to make them work correctly in older houses but at Shaw Electrical we have you covered.

First class experience. Wayne and the two lads arrived right on time and worked hard throughout. The functioning of the new alarm was explained thoroughly and he even did an extra little job on a side gate. I would recommend and will be using their services again.
