What SKELECOM LTD does

Skelecom Ltd is a privately held UK limited company founded in 2017 and headquartered in Watford, Hertfordshire. The firm operates as a single-site network infrastructure and connectivity services provider delivering Wi-Fi/RF surveys, cabling installation, equipment supply, network audits, PAT testing, and project management to SMEs, schools, hotels, hospitals, and home office users across the United Kingdom. Its core technical capability centres on professional Wi-Fi design and troubleshooting executed with Ekahau, an industry-standard third-party RF planning platform; the company states full Ekahau training and certification for its delivery staff. A consumer-facing smart home and IoT-based home automation service was added to the offering, covering remote control of lighting, thermostats, and security devices.

The business model is sales-led and project-based, combining professional services (Wi-Fi surveys, cabling, audits, PAT testing, project management) with hardware sales of routers, switches, access points, CCTV, and interactive screens. Pricing is bespoke and tailored to each project's specifications, with disclosed starting points of £449 per day for Wi-Fi surveys, £12 per cable run for RJ45 ethernet cabling, and £99 per setup for entry-level smart home installations. Customer engagement occurs through phone, email, a website contact form, and a modest organic social media presence on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram — there is no evidence of paid acquisition, channel partners, or outbound sales teams.

The firm is founder/owner-operated with no external institutional investors, no disclosed management team, and no funding rounds recorded. Ownership and cap table details are not publicly available, and the company number (10708318) confirms incorporation in England. Delivery is structured around a three-step in-house project management process (Connect, Plan, Deliver), with the Watford location near the M1 and M25 motorways cited as enabling nationwide UK coverage from a single operational base.

• NETGEAR: Networking and Wi-Fi equipment vendor whose products Skelecom explicitly supplies (routers, switches, access points). Comparable as a broader incumbent across SME and prosumer networking.
• TP-Link: Mass-market networking and smart-home equipment vendor. Overlaps with Skelecom's hardware supply and home/office Wi-Fi deployment offerings.
• Ubiquiti Networks (UniFi): Broad Wi-Fi, switching, and networking equipment vendor with deep penetration in SME and prosumer Wi-Fi deployments. Skelecom installs and supplies similar access points, switches, and routers as part of its cabling and equipment services.
• BT Business: UK incumbent telecom and managed network services provider serving SMEs, schools, hospitals, and hotels with connectivity and on-site network services — the most established UK competitor for Skelecom's enterprise connectivity work.
