We’re delighted to announce that Maidenhead Electrical Ltd (MEL) has been awarded a five-year contract to manage the mechanical services at Eton College.

The contract marks an exciting milestone for our growing Facilities Management division and builds on the electrical services we have proudly delivered at Eton for the past eight years.

It also demonstrates the value of building long-term relationships with clients and developing our services around their changing needs.

Eton College is a unique environment. Its estate includes numerous historic and listed buildings, while the College continues to operate a busy school timetable throughout the year.

Managing mechanical services in this type of environment requires more than technical expertise. It requires careful planning, clear communication and the ability to coordinate works around the day-to-day needs of the College.

Our in-house team of skilled mechanical engineers is ideally placed to meet these demands.

With expertise spanning gas, HVAC and wider building services, our team can provide responsive support while maintaining the high standards of service and project management that MEL is known for.

mel’s relationship with Eton College began with electrical services more than eight years ago.

Since then, our Facilities Management division has continued to develop, allowing us to provide clients with a broader range of engineering and building services.

The new five-year contract strengthens this relationship and means we can support Eton with both our electrical and mechanical expertise, providing a more integrated approach to managing its estate.

As Phil Collins, Contracts Manager at MEL, explains, the contract is an important development in our long-standing relationship with the College.

Daniel Cain, Contracts Manager at MEL, added:

“Having the expertise of an in-house mechanical engineering team within MEL means we can offer a truly integrated solution for Eton College, ensuring continuity, efficiency, and the ability to support the College’s long-term environmental and energy-saving goals.”

The Eton College contract is an excellent example of the type of Facilities Management partnership mel can provide.

For organisations managing large, complex or operationally sensitive estates, effective Facilities Management isn’t simply about responding when something goes wrong. It is about planning ahead, maintaining critical infrastructure, managing compliance and helping clients operate their buildings efficiently.

Our teams work closely with clients to understand their requirements and provide practical solutions that minimise disruption to their day-to-day operations.

This approach is particularly important in environments such as:

• Schools and colleges
• Universities
• Commercial and industrial sites
• Healthcare environments
• Historic and listed buildings
• Large or complex estates

We’re proud that our work at Eton College has developed from providing electrical services into a wider Facilities Management partnership.

The new five-year contract reinforces our commitment to delivering high-quality engineering, responsive service and long-term support for our clients.

It also reflects the confidence our clients place in our team and our ability to manage complex requirements over the long term.

We look forward to continuing our work with Eton College and supporting the estate for many years to come.

Whether you manage a school, university, commercial building, industrial site or complex estate, MEL can provide a range of electrical, mechanical and Facilities Management services tailored to your requirements.
