Any guesses which (Northern Ireland?) electrician company this might be???

[bahum]

I'll try to keep it short:

Back in 2014 we had an electrical company from Northern Ireland do some work for us in the Luton and Bedford areas of England. I don't remember their name (hence the question), all I know is they used to come to the area SEVERAL weeks in a row in the summer and they used to stay at Stockwood Hotel in Luton.

Also, please don't start duplicate threads in multiple areas as it makes it difficult for people to keep track of the information in the threads.

I didn't know that travellers offered tarmac work too....thought they were all about metal work.

tarmac has no scrap value, so needs dumping on unsuspecting customers' drives. if you are lucky and they have more than a transit full (left over form a big job round the corner), you might get more that 1 ".

I guess if they were legit they would have issued a certificate and you can trace that and find out who they are.

I'm not sure if my father still has that (I'm asking in his name btw) and knowing him I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't.

There can't be that many electrical companies from Belfast that do work in the Luton area of England every year for SEVERAL weeks in a row in the summer and that stay at the same hotel every time....I wonder if there's a way to trace which one it was based on that....

I live in Belfast and can honestly say this is the most vague question I've seen yet it could literally be any company in this country, and bar the racial insults from others on the site there are quite a few reputable companies who work in that area in England. Any other details?

No, I'm afraid.
I know the question is vague but I don't think it could be ANY company in Belfast considering the amount of time they spent in that particular area at that particular hotel (probably several years in a row too).

Could I ask why you are asking bahum?

 

[Phil Thompson]

Grahams would have lot of jobs over there too.

 

[MJPD29]

As far as I'm aware that is their full name. If he has any other details let me know and I'll see if I can help you

[Phil Thompson]

[Phil Thompson]

But there’s a few that have been wound up that possibly could have been them depending how long ago we are talking.

Another vague fact: The name of one of the companies that was staying at that hotel during those long periods included the word 'Paul'.

This was back in the summer of 2014.

 

[Phil Thompson]

Would it not be better talking to the hotel or it’s staff?

I did and their records don't go as far back as 2014.

The other problem is, everyone in England thinks if you’re from the North you’re from Belfast, so they could be from anywhere in the country.

 

[Martin Kerr]

What sort of electrical work did they carry out for your company ,Domestic,commercial or industrial
Maybe that will start to narrow it down a bit
But it is most likely they were sub contractors working for some of the large companies

PS the rest of you behave yourselves ,before we send Paddy,Mick and Seamus over to sort you out

I'm pretty sure they were from Belfast....although if you know any other companies from NI that do work in that area on a regular basis let me know pls.

Did you guys read my comment about their name? I was saying that one of the companies that was staying at that hotel during that time had the word 'Paul' in their name.
