Some of our Stirling Electrical team are just back from working in Rothesay installing new external LED lighting.

Out trip to the Isle of Bute was to replace near 20 year old metal halide fittings which had lasted well in the west coast sea air, but the time had come to replace them.

So it  was 'in with the new' LED lights which will be now be lighting up our customers building.

So in one week I will take part in the Stirling marathon, or as its been branded this year the Great Stirling Run. The event is now in its 3rd year and it's a scenic marathon starting and finishing in the City of Stirling while taking in the surrounding rolling countryside to the north of the city,  passing through small towns such as Doune, Dunblane and Bridge of Allan where the locals come out in force to support the runners.

Now let me be honest from the beginning, I am no running expert, while I was actively fit playing football at a reasonably competitive youth level up until my late teens, for the next 16-17 years I let myself go, fed up with sport, giving no thought to exercising or what I was eating, I was just being consumed with work and business and as my business developed and grew and I became more office based instead of doing physical work my weight ballooned.

Stirling Electrical Services  recently replaced old fluorescent lighting for new LED ceiling panels giving a crisper white light to the treatment rooms and communal areas at Body and Sole Healthcare in Stirling. 

The new LED lights offer more efficient running costs and also make for a cleaner finished look.

I recently attended the  ELEX exhibition in Manchester where all things electrical trade were on show and discussed.

It's important to keep up to date with the latest electrical news, regulations and equipment which is why I travel south every few years. 

Stirling Electrical Services are a proud member of SELECT and it is through them that myself and our other electricians update our electrical training and qualifications with their excellent training courses, but I always feel with electrical wiring regulations that it's good to have a different perspective and opinion which is why attending the seminars at this event by IET and NAPIT makes it worthwhile visiting. 

Plus there's also a free Bacon Roll and plenty of pens to be had.

Stirling Electrical Services Ltd. were delighted to be involved in the refurbishment of Gallery Two at The Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum, one of Stirling's finest attractions and we wish them success with the new gallery.

It's well worth a visit - some fabulous art on show.

I would like to thank the members of our own team and other contractors who were part of the project.

Below you will find the official opening announcement and official photos from The Stirling Smith facebook page as well as some of our own work photos during the project. The previous lighting track, power outlets and cabling were removed with the installation of new cables and power outlets including new lighting track with LED lights which highlights superbly the art on display.

In recent weeks we have been working at some of Stirling’s most famous historic locations and on Monday we started a refurbishment project at The National Wallace Monument.

2019 marks the 150th anniversary of the famous building commemorating William Wallace and The Battle of Stirling Bridge.
