Report
HF Group have been great to work with, helping to overcome issues with the original design and installing shore power in our Harbour to a high standard. We have worked with them on more than one project and they are helpful, professional and easy to work with. I would highly recommend them for electrical work.

Report
Following initial survey to look at best options and to discuss what our priorities were, the engineers turned up on the appointed day and completed the works to the highest of standards. Every precaution was taken from start to finish to ensure minimal damage to dcor, floor finishes, walls and doors, when installing all components in agreed locations. Engineer then talked us through the set up and use of the system and confirmed with his operation centre that the system was up and running correctly. I would recommend HF and their security installation team for their professionalism and execution of the works.
