Testimonial

Following the new LED lighting installation and the energy saving control modifications at our Hindley Green plant which have now been completed and tested I would like to complement you and Simons team for a well-run job!

Following your details being passed to us by the Business Growth Hub your response for the site assessments and quotes where completed very quickly with the lighting specifications and also extensive energy saving details which help me to get the go ahead for the project.

The installations where carried out professionally to the method statements and risk assessments supplied and without any hold ups to our production requirements on site also the guys kept the working area controlled and tidy and the installation was finished ahead of schedule.

I have no hesitation in recommending Powersave for the installation of LED lighting and general electrical installations and we will be asking them to assist us with a number of new installations this year across our 3 sites.
