About the Business
In 1895 two apprentices to the Bristol based electrical contractors Drake and Gorham decided to start their own business. Upon completion of their training, Harry Buchanan opened an office in Bristol and Charles Curwen moved to London to open the Head office in Victoria Street. Later in 1907 a branch was opened in Leatherhead, principally to install generators in country houses. An electrical showroom soon followed. As electric light became more popular, through an assisted wiring scheme full retail branches were opened in Beckenham, Dorking and Horsley. The retail outlets ceased trading in the late 1960's and 1970's following the advent of discount superstores. Today we serve the requirements of all domestic, commercial and industrial clients with a staff of 65 from our purpose built office in Leatherhead. Our name has become synonymous with high standards and reliability for over 100 years.
