About Carlow Electrical Services
Our story
Carlow Electrical Services was founded in 2014 by Cathal Lawlor, an electrician born and bred in Leighlinbridge. What started as one tradesman with a van and a commitment to doing things properly has grown into a trusted local team serving homes and businesses right across Carlow and the South-East. Today, Cathal leads a team of seven qualified, Safe Electric registered electricians who handle everything from emergency call-outs and home rewires to EV chargers, security systems and full commercial fit-outs.
Our founder
Before setting up on his own, Cathal trained with Milford Electrical and went on to work as a Senior Engineer with Aptus, gaining years of hands-on experience across domestic, commercial and technical installations. That background shapes how the business runs today: careful, certified work, clear communication, and a genuine pride in a job done right.
