Why Choose a Local Electrician Near Me?

When you’re searching for an electrician to carry out electrical works in your home or rental property, it can be overwhelming, especially if you haven’t worked with an electrical company before. You could choose a bigger, commercial electrical company, who is more likely to sub out your work to one of their contracted electricians. Or, you could go with a smaller, local company or one-person band like Pickwick Electric Co, who are based within the community in Corsham, covering the local areas including Bradford-on-Avon, Chippenham, Melksham, Trowbridge, Malmesbury, and Devizes.

We may be biased, but we think there’s lots of reasons why choosing to work with a local electrical company, such as Pickwick Electric Co, is a good idea - both for you, and for your local community.

1. Small businesses care more

The first, and we think the most important, reason to choose local is that you’re more likely to find an electrical partner that you can trust, and that cares about your home. At Pickwick Electric Co, we take our time to understand each and every job, and to provide the best advice about how to carry out the works safely, to a high standard, and in the most cost-effective way.

2. Supporting your local economy

Supporting smaller, local businesses based in your local area of Corsham, Chippenham, Melksham and the surrounding areas, keeps your money circulating within your local area. Conversely, bigger businesses who sub out their electrical work are likely to be based outside of the South West, which means that your hard earned cash leaves our local economy.

3. On hand to support you in case of emergency

If you choose a local electrician to support you with your major and minor electrical works, you’re choosing to work with an electrical partner who’s just down the road. This means that in the unlikely event that you have an electrical emergency, or even if you need any further works carrying out, we’re on hand to respond quickly to help you.

4. Happy to help with all sizes of job

You may find that when contacting bigger electrical suppliers, they’re not interested in helping with minor jobs such as changing light switches, changing light fittings, adding or changing sockets. Here at Pickwick Electric Co, we’re on hand to help our local community with jobs of all sizes.
