/ ABOUT US /

At Alexander James, as a main contractor and developer, we understand the challenges of dealing with utility companies and ensuring timely connections. In response, we expanded into the utilities sector in 2024, managing connections not only for our projects but for other developers as well. This strategic move has broadened our portfolio and reinforced our commitment to upholding high standards in both construction and utilities management. Our services include new installations, network upgrades, diversions, disconnections, and maintenance. Catering to projects from small residential to large commercial developments, we prioritise efficiency, safety, and minimal disruption.
