A snapshot of the reviews Josh has picked up on Google from people right across Porirua and Wellington.

Josh is very down-to-earth and professional, a true pleasure to work with. I had a sudden problem with my power at around 8pm, and I'd already called 3 other emergency electricians with no luck. Josh picked up immediately and was on site probably within 15min! He quickly diagnosed the issue and walked me through what needed to happen after. Highly recommend!

Completely blown away by the outstanding service! My still for distilling spirits recently stopped working. I called on a public holiday, expecting voicemail. Instead, they told me to bring it straight around and promptly fixed the issue right then and free of charge! Cannot recommend highly enough.

Josh did an amazing renovation on our previously poorly lit shop. Our plans were vague, and he came up with a lighting design that truely exceeded all expectations. We have had so many positive comments on the excellent lighting and we couldn't be happier with the work! Thanks josh, you're a legend!
