Business Information
At Harkins & Vickers Electrical Solutions, we provide safe, reliable, and professional electrical services for homeowners. Whether you need a small repair, a full rewire, or modern upgrades to your home’s electrics, we deliver clear advice, high-quality workmanship, and work that complies fully with current UK regulations.
Electrical Installations -
We carry out all types of domestic electrical installations, from additional sockets and lighting upgrades to complete electrical systems for renovations and extensions. Every installation is carefully planned, neatly finished, and tested to ensure long-term safety and performance.
Rewires and Upgrades -
Older electrical systems can be unsafe, inefficient, and unsuitable for modern living. We provide full and partial rewires, as well as targeted upgrades to improve capacity, safety, and reliability. If you’re renovating, extending, or buying an older property, we’ll assess what’s needed and explain your options clearly.
Lighting Solutions -
Good lighting transforms a home. We install internal and external lighting, including LED upgrades, feature lighting, garden lighting, and security lighting. Our focus is on practical design, energy efficiency, and clean installation—no messy cabling or rushed finishes.
Consumer Unit (Fuse Board) Replacements -
An outdated fuse board is one of the biggest electrical safety risks in a home. We replace old units with modern consumer units fitted with RCD and RCBO protection, improving safety and compliance while giving you peace of mind.
Electrical Fault Finding and Repairs -
If something isn’t working properly—or keeps tripping—we’ll find the fault and fix it properly, not just mask the problem. We carry out systematic testing to identify issues safely and efficiently, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Electrical Safety Inspections and Testing -
We offer Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) for homeowners, landlords, and buyers. These inspections check the safety of your electrical system and highlight any issues clearly, without exaggeration or scare tactics.
Smart Home and Modern Upgrades -
From smart lighting and heating controls to USB sockets and EV charger installations, we help homeowners modernise their properties with practical, future-ready solutions that actually add value and convenience.
How We Work -
We treat every home with respect. That means turning up when we say we will, explaining work in plain English, keeping things tidy, and completing jobs to a professional standard. Safety and compliance are never optional, and we don’t cut corners.
Whether it’s a small job or a major upgrade, our aim is simple: safe electrics, done properly.

I asked Keith Gunn Electrical Solutions to attend a property in Tollcross. Everyone I was in contact with was was very helpful and polite.
The appointment at the flat had to be rearranged a few times, but they were always willing to find space in the diary to attend.
As it turns out, the problem was a fault of Scottish Power, and so I can't review the engineering work, but certainly from a Customer Service stand-point, they were fantastic.

I've hired Keith Gunn Electrical three times now, for both work in my flat and for work in my shared stair. They're always fast to respond to email (which I appreciate!), fast to arrive, and fast to get the job done while still being thorough.
Totally recommended, and well-priced! :-)

We needed additional 3 phase power supplies installed in workshop for connection of new compressor and contacted Keith Gunn Electricians to quote for these works.
The quotation was submitted in good time and value for money was very good. We agreed a start date and their electrical engineer arrived on time and installed new cables, isolators, upgraded fuses to main board as required. Installation of cables from fuse board were quite challenging but the standard of workmanship in doing these works were first class. We will use their services again and would definitely recommend them.

Came out to put a bathroom fan and light on to separate switches. Agreed to do this small job at pretty short notice. When here the electrician was polite, clear when explaining things, and quick to complete the job. Feel fair price charged. Very happy and would recommend.

I needed to have a power switch moved in my kitchen. The electrician was on time and the job exceeded my expectations. I was kept informed about the job and the electrician left with the job done and everything tidy.
