⚡️ Are you an electrician who actually cares about doing things right?

Do you take pride in your work?
Do you enjoy giving customers genuinely good service?
Do you like leaving a job knowing you’ve done it properly?

If that sounds like you, we’d like to have a chat.

Leaf Electrical is growing and we’re putting the feelers out for another electrician to join our team.

We’re based in East Kilbride and carry out a wide variety of domestic and commercial work across Glasgow and the surrounding areas. We’re looking for someone experienced, confident working on their own and just as comfortable dealing with customers as they are doing the job itself.

The essentials:

⚡ Approved Electrician status
🚐 Clean driving licence – company vehicle provided
🏠 Good range of domestic and commercial experience
🙋 Comfortable working independently and dealing directly with customers

2391 Inspection & Testing and EV charging qualifications would be advantageous, but aren’t essential.

We’re a small, growing company and our reputation is massively important to us. We’re not interested in rushing from job to job or cutting corners: we want someone who takes the same pride in their work that we do.

Nothing overly formal at this stage. We’re putting the feelers out and would love to hear from anyone who might be considering a change.

Interested? Drop the page a private message for a confidential chat 👍

Something blew my mind today.

I attended a quote for an elderly woman in East Kilbride who needs her old electric storage heating replaced.

She was flabbergasted that a tradesman had actually turned up when they said they would.

I listened to what she wanted.

I explained her options.

And then I offered to look into whether there were any grants or funding available that could potentially save her thousands of pounds.

She doesn’t have access to the internet and was worried about getting caught up in endless phone calls, forms and general rigmarole. At the end of the day, she would actually rather just pay a local tradesman to come in and do the work.

And that’s absolutely fine.

If she decides to go ahead with us, I have a clear conscience knowing that before she commits to spending potentially thousands of pounds on new heating, I made her aware that there may be other options available and offered to help her explore them for free.

But the whole interaction left me thinking.

Why was any of this surprising?

Why was simply turning up when we said we would, communicating properly, listening to the customer and giving honest advice treated like exceptional service?

When did the bar get this low?

Somewhere along the line, the trades seem to have created a culture where paying customers actively expect to be let down.

They expect someone not to turn up.

They expect phone calls and messages to go unanswered.

And, unfortunately, many expect that if a tradesman does turn up, there’s a decent chance they’re going to be overcharged or taken advantage of.

That’s genuinely depressing.

We’re invited into people’s homes. They trust us with their property, their safety and sometimes a significant amount of their money.

We should act like that trust means something.

Apparently in 2026 the secret to running a successful trade business is:

Communicate with people. Turn up when you say you will. Do what you said you would do. And treat your customers like human beings. 🤷‍♂️

None of that should be a competitive advantage!

Seemingly the majority tradesmen need to do better.

They say being an electrician is one of those jobs that’s pretty safe from the AI takeover.

Maybe so, but it’s definitely starting to change the way we work.

Three times in the last couple of weeks we’ve had customers come to us who have obviously used AI before getting in touch. Not necessarily a bad thing, but they’ve then used what it’s told them to question what we should be doing, how we should be doing it, what notifications they should receive and, probably the one that concerns me most, what materials they should buy themselves.

Now before anyone thinks this is an anti-AI rant, it really isn’t 😂

I’m a massive supporter of AI. I use it every single day, usually multiple times a day. It’s an absolutely brilliant tool and I think it’s only going to become more useful.

But it is a tool.

I’ve been an electrician for 18 years now and self employed for 8 of them.

That’s 18 years of actually doing the job.

Every circuit wired, fault found, consumer unit changed, cable pulled and hole drilled adds a little bit more experience. You retain it, learn from it and eventually a lot of it becomes second nature.

Sometimes you can walk into a job and know something isn’t right before you’ve even got the tester out. You probably couldn’t even immediately explain what made you notice it. You’ve just seen enough over the years to recognise it.

Then there’s all the stuff that happens in the background. Training, keeping up with changes, learning new products and systems, CPD and the regular assessments we go through to prove we’re actually competent to do what we do.

AI doesn’t have that lived experience.

And this isn’t unique to electricians either. The same goes for plumbers, gas engineers, joiners, mechanics and pretty much every other skilled trade.

By all means use AI before you contact a tradesman. I actually think that’s a good thing.

Ask it what something means. Use it to understand your options. Use it to help you work out what questions you should be asking us.

But please don’t take whatever it tells you as gospel.

If your electrician tells you something different, ask them why. Any decent tradesman should be happy to explain their reasoning.

AI has access to an unbelievable amount of information.

That doesn’t give it 18 years standing in houses, building sites, lofts, cupboards and underneath floorboards actually doing the job.

Sometimes we do actually know better 🤣

📢 A quick update from Leaf Electrical…

Next week will be a little different for us as Tanya, is taking some well deserved time off.

We’ll still be out on the tools as normal, but with the office running on reduced cover, response times may be a little longer than usual.

To help us keep everything organised, our phone will be on voicemail throughout the week. If you need to get in touch, please send us a:

⚡ WhatsApp message
⚡ Facebook message
⚡ Email

We’ll work through all enquiries as quickly as we can and will get back to everyone as soon as possible.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. It’s been an incredibly busy few months for Leaf Electrical, and we’re currently booking work into mid-September. We’re hugely grateful for the continued support from our customers and the local community. 💚

This week we walked away from a job.

Not because we couldn’t do it.

Not because we didn’t want the work.

Because we didn’t believe it was the right solution.

This property had ongoing localised mould issues in a rented flat.

The landlord requested a Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) system, so we carried out a survey before quoting.

Our findings suggested that whilst a PIV may improve the property’s overall ventilation, we couldn’t honestly say it would resolve the localised issue we had found (potential cold bridge/water accumulating above the DPC of an external wall).

We said exactly that, the landlord still wanted the installation, the tenant wanted the underlying problem fixed. We found ourselves in the middle and we made a decision.

Rather than install something we weren’t convinced addressed the root cause, we declined the work.

Not exactly the most profitable decision. But our reputation isn’t built on saying “yes” to every job.

It’s built on giving honest advice, even when that advice means walking away.

If we think something will work, we’ll tell you. If we think it probably won’t, we’ll tell you that as well.

Sometimes honesty costs us a day’s work, but you can’t put a price on being able to sleep at night.

We’re okay with that!!

We’ve been a wee bit slow with communication the last week, Tanya’s been on, a very well deserved, holiday. And we’ve been up to our eyes in school holidays.

On top of this, we’re in the process of changing over to new laptops and software.

Thanks for baring with us, we’ll be back to full speed soon!

Also wishing strength and courage to all parents trying to keep their children entertained with the Scottish summer weather! 😂

I’ve been thinking about this a lot recently….

One of my absolute favourite things about running a business has never been the electrical work itself. It’s the people.

It’s crazy to think We’ve been doing this for the best part of 7 or 8 years now. Although we work all over Central Scotland these days, the majority of that journey has been spent in and around East Kilbride, and it’s incredible how quickly time passes.

I’ll go back to a customer’s house a few years later and the little kid who was following me around asking questions is suddenly taller than me. Customers I first met while they were still working are now retired and enjoying life. You really do get a front row seat to people’s lives, even if it’s only in small moments.

People are sometimes surprised that I remember them, or that I remember it was their mum, dad, neighbour or friend who recommended them years ago. The truth is, I do remember. I remember every customer we’ve worked for, the conversations we’ve had and the people behind the front door!

That’s one of the things I love most about running a local business. It’s never just about turning up, doing a job and leaving. Over the years you build genuine relationships. Some customers have become people I’d happily call friends.

It always means a lot when someone asks how I’m getting on, how business is, or how the kids are getting on. It probably seems like such a small thing, but it genuinely isn’t. Those conversations remind me that this has always been about more than electrical work.

When I started all those years ago, I just wanted to build a business that people could trust. I never imagined I’d meet so many genuinely kind, funny and supportive people along the way.

So, if we’ve ever worked for you, thank you. Whether it was a small repair, a rewire, an EV charger or anything in between, you’ve been part of the journey, and I genuinely appreciate every bit of support you’ve given us over the years.

I really do feel incredibly lucky to do what I do!
