Our current chairman, Steve Evans, founded the business as SP Evans Electrical Contractor (a sole trader) in 1981 and soon decided to specialise in wiring new homes. Using his spare bedroom as an office, Steve gradually expanded the business and started employing apprentices, with one of the first of these being Steve Clarkson. The two Steves eventually formed a partnership and by the early 1990s we were trading as Clarkson Evans. The business continued to expand and by the late 1990s we’d established our commercial premises at Meteor Business Park, which is still home to part of our HQ operations today. In 1999 we opened our first purpose-built centre for training apprentices and began delivering classes in-house. This was very much the launchpad for further growth and geographical expansion, which continued steadily until the worldwide financial crisis in 2008. When the downturn hit, demand for new housing dried up very suddenly and it was the beginning of a very difficult 18 months for everyone in the industry. Thanks to having strong cash reserves that we’d carefully built up over our many years in business, we were able to survive and by late 2009, we’d started making ambitious expansion plans in new parts of the country. Between 2010 – 2015 we opened several new branches and we started to operate on a national scale. Growth continued and by 2019 we were wiring 24,000 new homes a year. We’re now weathering the storm of the Covid-19 pandemic and we’re cautiously optimistic about 2021.
