mel Group’s electrical work in listed and historic buildings is essential to the Provost’s Lodge refurbishment at Eton College – a landmark building at an iconic British institution.

Electrical work has its challenges, especially in listed buildings and requires specialised knowledge. Every building over a certain age and built in earlier centuries will have been constructed differently and have its own eccentricity. mel Group has a small team of master electricians who are passionate about this sort of work and have developed this specialised knowledge and experience through working on dozens of similar projects.

Andy Collins, mel Group Director, attended a site meeting at Eton College to review site progress on the Provost’s Lodge refurbishment project alongside our approved Electrician, Ryan Ward, who has been doing an excellent job – not only carrying out the work but also assisting with the coordination of the electrical elements of the project.

Our works are progressing well and on schedule. The majority of the isolation, stripping out of old wiring has been completed, making way for the start of the first fix wiring.

You can tell from the photos we had to start by having the original floorboards carefully removed and stored for safekeeping.

We then laid down chipboard to allow Ryan and his team safe access to the working areas.

Given the complexity of this refurbishment, we are leaving no stone unturned.

It’s a matter of personal and professional pride that we pay attention to the little details every step of the way.

It’s a mindset adopted by all of mel Group’s engineers and is embedded within the mel Group company culture.

As a commercial or industrial business, it’s essential to keep your electrical installation and management up-to-date for compliance and the daily running of your business.

Electrical works in listed buildings are no different.

Historic and listed buildings are fantastic sites. They exude culture, heritage and character that make you feel special to be a part of. These influential cultural touchstones need to remain protected and kept up to date with electrical maintenance and installation.

mel Group can also assist you with all your electrical and facilities management requirements.
