About DDK Electric
DDK Electric is a trusted local electrical company based in Shettleston, Glasgow, specialising in EV charger installation, repairs, and upgrades for homes and workplaces across the area.
Founded by experienced electrician Darren Kerr, the business is built on strong values of safety, honesty, reliability, and pride in workmanship, ensuring every project meets the highest standards of quality and care.
Our Story
After many years working within the electrical and renewable energy industries, Darren recognised an opportunity to deliver something many customers were missing: a personal, reliable service at a competitive price.
Having served his time in the new-build housing sector, Darren gained hands-on expertise in domestic electrical systems before specialising in renewable technologies, with a focus on EV charging solutions.
In founding DDK Electric, he set out to create a business that combined the technical skill of a professional installer with the friendly, honest approach of a trusted local tradesman.
Every installation is carried out with attention to detail, open communication, and respect for the customer’s property. That commitment has helped DDK Electric earn a growing reputation across Glasgow as a dependable name in EV charging.
Our Values
At DDK Electric, everything we do is guided by four key principles:
- Safety: All work is completed to the latest UK electrical standards, ensuring your installation is safe and compliant.
- Reliability: We turn up when we say we will, communicate clearly, and deliver the results you expect.
- Honesty: Every quote is transparent, with no hidden costs or unnecessary upselling.
- Pride in Workmanship: We treat every property as if it were our own, leaving a clean, professional finish every time.
These values have helped us build lasting relationships with homeowners, landlords, and businesses who appreciate genuine service and technical excellence.
