Chris and his guys are really professional, and just very nice people to do business with.

I have used them many times now in my home for various projects and also my friends and family's homes.

Full house rewire in our house, along with spotlights and outside sockets and lights. Really pleased and I won’t be going anywhere else in future.

James Salt

Chris and particularly Alex have been involved in a full refurb of our new property. We had a full rewire, plus many extras. They have all been absolutely fantastic. Very professional, helpful and great at their work. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who requires electrical work. Thank you guys.

CTE Contractors did a fantastic job from start to finish. The new LED lighting has completely transformed the look and feel of our site the workshop is brighter, the offices look more professional, and we’ve already noticed a drop in our electricity usage.

The installation was handled smoothly with no disruption to our daily operations.

We’d happily recommend CTE to any business looking to upgrade their lighting.

The difference is incredible; the new lighting makes a huge improvement for evening games. The team at CTE Contractors were professional throughout, working safely despite the difficult access. We’re saving energy and our members are thrilled with the result.

Penistone Bowling Club Committee

CTE Contractors delivered exactly what we needed for our new showroom. The lighting design really brings out the vehicles, and the overall space feels premium and professional. The installation was completed to a high standard and coordinated perfectly with our refurbishment schedule. The new power and data layouts make daily operations much easier.
