Thompson Building Services Engineers were appointed as one of only two electrical framework contractors to UCLan. Thompson are responsible for completing all electrical planned and reactive maintenance across the entire campus including teaching areas, student accommodation and sports arenas.
Reactive Maintenance

FEEDBACK
Having worked for the UCLAN for nearly 12 years. Thompson’s have worked on numerous projects for me , both direct for the University and as a Subcontractor to many General Building Contractors. I have always found their approach has been nothing short of professional; they employ capable individuals who are highly motivated with a good attitude. This combined with their friendly approach enables collaborative working, with clients and site team members, to overcome problems and work to a high standard.
