Success doesn’t come easy. To make a business thrive and flourish on personalised customer service takes plenty of time investment, vision, proficiency and the determination to achieve dreams with pre-determined goals.

In this competitive era and constantly evolving market, Matthew Catterall – an emerging entrepreneur – sets an extraordinary benchmark in Morecambe, by offering his excellence and prowess in electrical, plumbing, fire and security engineering services.

Entrepreneur Matt founded MJ Catterall, an electrical installation, plumbing, fire and security solutions company, in 2014. He began on a small scale while the company was at a start-up stage, and today, MJ Catterall has become a prominent brand in providing electrical and plumbing solutions in Morecambe, and all over the United Kingdom.

Before embarking on his entrepreneurial journey, Matt worked as an apprentice at a primitive, old-fashioned company for many years. When he noticed the lack of opportunities and hindrances to personal and career growth, he decided to start something he could call his.

He applied the skills and developed a strategic plan to introduce the best electrical contractors, plumbing solutions, and security installation company in the United Kingdom. So far, Matt has executed installation and maintenance projects in commercial, industrial, and domestic sectors.

Matt is a pragmatic, benevolent, emphatic, and self-motivated person. While managing his ventures, he is also actively involved in humanitarian work.
