I can confirm that S&M Howson Electrical are an approved electrical contractor for BP Oil UK Ltd and previously for Mobil Oil before and during the BP / Mobil Joint Venture.

S&M Howson have always proved themselves to be professional and reliable contractors accrediting themselves well to both our expectations and to our Health & Safety Policy.

To be an approved contractor for BP all contractors must adhere to a high standard of work to comply with our stringent service levels, reporting procedures and safe working practices. In addition, their rates have been competitive and the quality of their work is good.

I have no hesitation in recommending S&M Howson Electrical as a contractor

S.M.Howson's have been audited by an external examiner to ensure they comply with "The institute of petroleum - code of safe practice for contractors working on petrol filling stations" and have been awarded a certificate to this effect.

As a follow on to the above accreditation, all their employees who work on our filling stations have undergone Health & Safety training to gain accreditation to "passport to work"

Having used the company over many years to carry out our annual statutory electrical inspections and to provide planned and reactive maintenance to our electrical equipment I can only compliment them on their professionalism and high standard of work.

Their administration as far as prompt and efficient call centre work handling linked to accurate invoice and certification issuance has never been a concern.

Kevin Gardiner
Maintenance & Development Manager
Murco Petroleum Ltd.

We have used Howsons for well over 20 years now, not just for maintenance issues but for new-builds where they have designed the electrical systems that we need on our petrol filling stations and in our shops and car washes.

From time to time, we have tried others, thinking that we might make a small saving. Invariably we reverted to Howsons to sort out the problems that the others left us.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Howsons. They are professional, tidy, personable, pro-active and helpful. We can rely on them – a rarity in this day and age.
