“We’re particularly proud to have received this particular award because it means so much in the electrical industry.”

New-build house wiring specialists Clarkson Evans have scooped the prestigious Large Contractor of the Year trophy at one of the electrical industry's biggest events, the ECA Awards.

Judges from the Electrical Contractors Association singled out Clarkson Evans from amongst some of the most established businesses in the sector, including fellow finalists NG Bailey. They were particularly impressed by the company's commitment to delivering high quality customer service, and to developing staff through its in-house apprenticeship programme.

Managing Director, Nathan Evans said: "What a fantastic achievement! It just shows what a brilliant team of staff we have here and I'd like to thank every single one of them, at every one of our 20 branches, for doing their jobs really well, day in and day out."

Clarkson Evans is the largest electrical contractor serving the new-build housing sector, having wired over 21,000 properties in the last year. Headquartered in Gloucester and with 20 branches nationwide, the company directly employs over 900 staff (not subcontractors) and trains large numbers of apprentices.

"We're particularly proud to have received this particular award because it means so much in the electrical industry", said Nathan. "We're proud of what we do but we don't take anything for granted and such national recognition means a lot to us."
