Electricians in Clydebank



Shipbuilding  Clydebank

The River Clyde has been a centre for shipbuilding for hundreds of years, with boats being built in the area possibly as early as the 15th century.
However, it was during the 19th century, in places such as Bowling Harbour, Denny's Shipyard in Dumbarton, John Brown's Shipyard at Clydebank and Govan Graving Docks, that shipbuilding became a real source of commerce for Glasgow.
The advent of the The steam engine marked massive opportunities for Glasgow to expand its heavy industry.Between 1844 and 1963, Denny's shipyard alone built over 1500 ships. The Denny family was involved in building the first steamship that crossed the Channel (1814), the first turbine steamer (1901), and the first diesel-electric paddle (1934), to name a few. Also well-known from Dumbarton was the fast clipper Cutty Sark, currently a visitor attraction in London.
For many, though, the heart of the shipping industry in Glasgow lay in Govan and the Fairfield Shipyards. At Fairfield, Robert Napier, known as 'the father of shipbuilding on the Clyde', trained many of those who went on to establish leading shipyards,including John Brown's Shipyard in Clydebank. These shipyards grew towards the end of the nineteenth century to become the some of the leading suppliers of the Royal Navy, as well as building liners and steamers, and the tradition continues today with BAe Systems yards at Govan and Scotstoun.
A shipbuiding landmark on the Clyde is the Finnieston Crane at Yokhill. Completed in 1931, it was primarily used to load large steam ocomatives for exportation. In addition, it was used to fit large ships' engines. This impressive machine is still in working order.
After World War Two the shipping industry went into decline and by the 1960's, Fairfield had collapsed.
Recently, however, regeneration of the Clyde Waterfront has attracted new industry to the area, including financial services, digital media and tourism. However, the long tradition of Shipbuilding in the area continues.

SUCCESS AS AN ELECTRICAL CONTRATOR IN GLASGOW



In tough economic times like we have endured over the past several years, businesses in and around Glasgow, have struggled to survive and make ends meet doing the thing they have been doing for the past few years. The landscape has changed advertising has changed even the way we communicate has changed. Our customers come to our company from all different sources and if you have not moved with the times you will be left behind and will suffer the dire business and economic consequences.

We are based in the Westend of Glasgow and cover Glasgow - south side Glasgow (Clarkston)- Glasgow north - East end Glasgow and Renfrewshire. we continue to grow on a daily basis and are consistently looking for new opportunities to grow and enhance our visibility across all levels of media.

The most interesting thing is that in 2014 it dosnt cost in actual cold cash to get yourself out the intact you can basically get business all week 24 hours a day for free just like i do. you need to learn the techniques to do this but once you do you would be forever grateful for taking the time to do so.

i spend 0 on advertising and have done for the past 3 years i more jobs on a daily basis that i can handle and have to disappoint some customers but i do try and get 5-8 jobs  done per day minimum if possible.

electrical rewire jordanhill westend glasgow

Monday afternoon went really well for us, as i personally secured a full rewire of 4 bedroom house in the westend glasgow, which is to start next monday. really happy with this one as there were several other electrical companys in for this one, we managed to get the job due to our professionalism, customer relations and price. thats one thing that can be hard when quoting for job is finding our where to go in with your price as there will be other electrical companys quoting for the same job. best thing to do is be as professional as you can be, get your time keeping right and give the clients as much information as possible.this way you are covering all based and therefore should be chosen by your customer, remember its not always down to price.i have won jobs even though i was was not the cheapest electrical contractor quoting. its all about attitude believe you can and you will. you need to learn from your mistakes and not to repeat them or you run the risk of loosing all the jobs you go for. as Albert Einstein said "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results" he did speak from a theoretical physicist point of view but it is still releent in life and is still relevent in the electrical contracting industry.
