Who it is for

For electrical contractors past the early chaos.

This is built for owners with real demand, real team pressure, and a business that needs sharper decisions rather than more motivation.

Good fit

  • You run a UK electrical contracting business
  • You have electricians or subcontractors on the road
  • You want better pricing, margin, and team rhythm
  • You are ready to be challenged by another operator

Wrong fit

  • You want technical or regulatory advice on the electrical work itself
  • You are looking for a magic marketing trick
  • You want a big group programme
  • You are not willing to change how the business runs

The difference

Coaching from an operator, not a classroom.

Shaun is not an electrician and will not pretend to be. He is an owner running a £1.8m trades firm with eight engineers on the road, dealing with the same pricing, hiring, scheduling, and cash flow problems you are. The trade differs. The business does not.

Generic business coaching

  • Advice built from old playbooks or a classroom
  • Large groups with limited operator context
  • Broad tactics that ignore your team and your numbers

Dunn Right Trades

  • Still pricing, hiring, managing, and learning this week
  • 1:1 support for a small client base
  • Real SOPs and decisions from a live trades firm

Electrical-specific work

The problems are usually operational, not motivational.

An electrical firm can be booked solid and still be leaking margin, time, and good people.

01

Pricing on gut feel

Rewires, board changes, and fit-outs quoted on habit are where margin quietly disappears. We look at job costing, labour hours, materials, and the real cost of getting a quote wrong.

02

Keeping good sparks

Retention is not just pay. It is standards, workload, remedials, and whether the owner has built a place electricians want to stay.

03

The domestic and commercial mix

A firm can look healthy while domestic call-outs, commercial contracts, and testing work pull margin in different directions.

Why Shaun

An operator's view of your electrical business.

Shaun founded SD Plumbing & Heating in Edinburgh in 2015 and built it to a £1.8m+ business with eight engineers. He is not an electrician, and the work here is not about the electrical side. It is about the business wrapped around it: what jobs get priced at, why engineers leave, where the week goes, and what the numbers are actually telling you. That comes from a firm he is still running, not a story about one he used to.

Electrical FAQ

Questions about electrician business coaching.

Plain answers for UK electrical contractors considering the free intro call.

You are not an electrician. Why would this help?

Because the problems that stall a £500k electrical firm are not electrical problems. They are pricing, hiring, retention, scheduling, and cash flow. Shaun deals with those every week in a £1.8m trades business with eight engineers. If you need technical or regulatory input on the work itself, this is not that, and he will say so on the call.

What is an electrician business coach?

An electrician business coach helps an electrical contracting owner make better operational decisions around pricing, margin, hiring, systems, and growth. At Dunn Right Trades the work is 1:1 and led by a still-operating trades business owner.

Who is the right fit for this support?

The best fit is usually a UK electrical business past the sole-trader stage, with electricians on the books, revenue building, and an owner who wants senior operator input rather than a generic course.

Is this group coaching or 1:1 support?

It is 1:1 support. Shaun works with a small number of clients at a time so the advice can be specific to your business rather than general advice for a crowd.

Can the coaching be remote?

Most conversations happen remotely through calls and WhatsApp. That keeps the work practical for owners who are already busy running jobs and teams.

What happens if it is not a fit?

He will tell you on the intro call. There is no follow-up sequence and no pitch. A 15-minute honest answer is more use to both of you than a client who should not have signed.

Do you show pricing on the site?

No. The first step is a free 15-minute intro call. If there is a fit and a reason to go deeper, the next step can be discussed clearly without a public price list.
