Newmilns FAQs

Who does the work in Newmilns?

Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.

Can you work out of hours in Newmilns?

Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Newmilns offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.

Is the price fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.

Why is the annual test done out of hours?

After a full-duration test the batteries need time to recharge, so the building is less protected for a while. Testing at the end of the day avoids that risk while people are inside.
