Derek Goodman, Construction Manager at Avery Healthcare says: “It’s important for us to maintain our properties to the highest standards, but it’s also important to remember that they are also people’s homes and workplaces. It can be really difficult to complete work with consideration for everyone’s needs and comfort.
“We have been working with ECO2LEC for several years now because they understand our needs. They have always delivered consistently very high standards of work. More importantly, they always go the extra mile to make sure that inconvenience and disruption are kept to a minimum.”

The installation included 700 LED vapour-proof light fittings and over 2km of Zucchini lighting busbar, power and data infrastructure. We also installed conveyor power supplies and control wiring, emergency lighting and a fire detection system.

Union Building, Aldershot
This Grade II listed building in Hampshire originally dates back to 1629, so the renovation and conversion had to be sensitive to its history.
The full conversion took place over almost a year. It included electrical installation for eight apartments in the north block and nine apartments in the south block, along with all the communal areas.
Page 23 Domestic: Case 3
Rosebank, Church Brampton
This new luxury five-bedroom property is close to the Althorp Estate in Northamptonshire.
The electrical installation featured a full Rako intelligent lighting system with state-of-the-art digital dimming technology. Power, mechanical supplies and control wiring, ventilation, telephone, data and WiFi systems were all included in the installation, along with a Google Nest home detection and alarm system and a cinema room.
Pete Anderson, Site Manager for the project on behalf of Seagrave Developments says: “This is the biggest private house we’ve built so it was important to work with the right contractors. ECO2LEC’s work is clean and tidy and they are very trustworthy. They were spot-on throughout and are really good at working with other trades like the plumbers, for example.
“It’s really impressive how technology has been used to really future-proof the property. There’s even an app for the lighting system so that the owners can control it, wherever they are. It’s all pretty clever stuff.”
