What Elektric does

Elektric is a privately held, owner-operated domestic electrical contracting business headquartered in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England, with twelve employees. It provides qualified electrician services across a regional catchment spanning West Kent, East Sussex, and South London — specifically Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge, Sevenoaks, Crowborough, and Hawkhurst. The company serves residential homeowners exclusively, with no commercial or industrial segment disclosed and no named anchor customers.

The service offering is organised around five modules: internal electrical work (additional sockets and lights, consumer-unit updates, complete rewires, new-build wiring), kitchen electrical installation (power and 230V/ELV lighting advice, fire protection, energy-saving compliance), bathroom electrical features (heated mirrors, ambient LEDs, dimmable downlights, waterproofed TVs), external installations (driveway and garden lighting, flood lighting, motorized gates, PIR sensors, weatherproof power), and energy-saving upgrades using ELV and LED technology. Underlying technology consists of standard 230V mains and extra-low-voltage (ELV) systems, LED lighting, and optional whole-house computer-controlled wiring; no proprietary software, platform, or AI system is described. All work is delivered by NICEIC-registered installers who maintain currency with the 17th Edition BS7671 Electrical Installation Regulations, Health and Safety requirements, and building regulations.

Revenue is generated project-by-project on a custom quote basis (no published pricing tiers, no recurring revenue, no subscription). Distribution is purely direct-to-consumer with no intermediaries; customer acquisition is sales-led via phone (01892 557973), email ([email protected]), Skype, and a website contact form, with a stated 30-minute callback commitment for missed calls. The company is fully registered with the NICEIC and all work is covered by the NICEIC guarantee, which is positioned as the central regulatory and trust differentiator against uncertified competitors. No funding, parent company, subsidiaries, awards, patents, partnerships, leadership team details, or revenue figures are disclosed.

Others

• NICEIC: National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting — the certification body Elektric is registered with. Not a commercial competitor, but the registration scheme defines the regulatory standards Elektric complies with and the consumer trust signal the company leverages.

Broad incumbents

• Rated People: UK online marketplace that matches homeowners with tradespeople across categories including electrical work. Competes for customer demand in the same South East geographies and reduces direct customer flow to small independent contractors.
• EDF Energy: Major UK energy provider offering residential electrical services through employed engineers and partner networks. Competes for similar consumer demand at national scale across installation, repair, and inspection categories.
• MyBuilder: UK online marketplace for tradespeople with electrical work as a core category. Similar demand-capture dynamics to Checkatrade and Rated People — redirects homeowners away from direct contact with independents like Elektric.
• Checkatrade: UK's leading directory of vetted tradespeople including electricians. Operates as an aggregator rather than direct service provider, but increasingly intermediates the customer relationship that small local electricians like Elektric historically owned.
• British Gas: Major UK energy and home services provider with electrical installation and repair services delivered via employed engineers and the Local Heroes platform. Operates at national scale across the same residential electrical categories.
• HomeServe: UK home emergency and maintenance services provider with electrical cover as a core product. Competes for the same residential electrical customer wallet through subscription-based and pay-on-demand models.

Regional players

• Pimlico Plumbers: London-based home services company offering electrical, plumbing, and heating work. Overlaps geographically with Elektric's South London catchment and competes for premium residential electrical jobs in London boroughs.
• Aspect.co.uk: London-based home maintenance and trade services company with electrical work in its portfolio. Comparable multi-trade business model serving residential customers in Greater London — directly overlapping with part of Elektric's service area.

Direct peers

• Local Heroes: British Gas-owned platform that connects customers with local tradespeople including electricians. Directly competes with Elektric by aggregating supply of qualified electricians and capturing lead flow for residential electrical jobs in the same service categories (fault finding, installations, rewires).
