# A.Alexander & Son (Electrical) Ltd
Established in 1962, A.Alexander & Son is a Glasgow-based building services contractor specialising in electrical and mechanical installations for commercial and residential clients. The company operates across the full spectrum of electrical work, from domestic rewiring and consumer unit upgrades to complex commercial projects including data infrastructure, access control systems, fire alarms and voltage optimisation solutions.
Beyond electrical services, the business provides comprehensive mechanical engineering, encompassing heating systems, plumbing, ventilation, air conditioning and gas installations, often integrating building management and BMS controls across both disciplines. This dual capability allows them to deliver integrated building services solutions rather than fragmented trades.
What distinguishes A.Alexander & Son is their genuine 24-hour, 365-day call-out service—not merely advertised but operationally embedded. Their approach prioritises diagnostics and problem-solving by telephone before dispatching engineers, reducing unnecessary costs for customers. The company has cultivated strong relationships with major Scottish contractors, architects and housing associations, evidenced by their portfolio including Muir Construction, Robert C Brown, Hawthorne Boyle and Trust Housing Association.
Client testimonials consistently highlight their professionalism, hands-on senior management, engineering expertise and proactive coordination on projects of varying complexity. Their ability to work discretely within architectural environments whilst maintaining schedule and budget discipline has made them preferred partners for retail and commercial developments. As a family business with over six decades of market experience, A.Alexander & Son combines established reliability with contemporary technical capability.
