Family-Run on the Hibiscus Coast Since 2011
We are not a national chain with a call centre. We are your neighbours. AJ Electrical has been a family-run local business since 2011, and being based on the Coast means we know the area and the homes in it, from older Orewa baches to new Millwater builds and Gulf Harbour waterfront properties. Our name is on every job, so we treat your place the way we would treat our own. That local, personal approach is the reason so many Hibiscus Coast homeowners, property managers and businesses come back to us and point their neighbours our way.
Meet Andre and the Team
Founder Andre grew up on the Hibiscus Coast, trained as an electrician, and spent several years at sea as a marine engineer on superyachts before coming home to start AJ Electrical in 2011. What began as one person is now a full team based in Whangaparaoa, and the standard has never changed: quality work, done properly, and not happy until you are happy.
Real Local Work, All Over the Coast
The best way to judge an electrician is the work they leave behind. Over the years we have handled full electrical fit-outs for El Cupo Restaurant and Paper Plus Whangaparaoa, interior lighting for the hardstand shed at Gulf Harbour Marina, and audio and electrical maintenance for Māori TV. We have rewired villas and 1980s homes, wired up new builds in Millwater and Wainui, fitted spotlights on an Albany farm, and set up smart homes and outdoor entertaining areas. Homes, restaurants, retail, marine and industrial sites, no job is too big or too small.
Why Locals Keep Calling Us Back
Read our reviews and the same things come up again and again: we turn up on time, we tidy up after ourselves, and we charge fairly. As Registered Master Electricians, the work is safe, compliant and done right the first time. You get a clear idea of costs upfront, no hidden surprises, and a free estimate before we start. That straightforward, honest approach is just the Kiwi way, and it is why homeowners, property managers and local businesses trust us with everything from a single power point to a full commercial fit-out.

“AJ Electrical is my chosen electrician here in our home. As always, the work is clearly discussed prior to the job being done so that they deliver exactly what is needed to solve our needs. And an important part is feeling comfortable with people working inside our home; something that is very important for us. We enjoyed the banter and advice during last week's job done here. A perfect job done to solve a big problem.”
“We needed a new oven installed quickly, and AJ Electrical were awesome. Very responsive, here when they said they would be and even replaced the outdoor motion sensor within the same visit. Clean, tidy, friendly - all round awesome service. Would definitely recommend and use again.”

Frequently Asked Questions
AJ Electrical has been operating since 2011. Founder Andre started the company on his own after years of hands-on electrical experience, and it has grown steadily year on year into a full team based in Whangaparaoa. Being a family-run local business for well over a decade means we have looked after the same streets, suburbs and returning customers across the Hibiscus Coast for years. That long track record is why locals trust us with their homes and businesses, and it is the foundation of the reputation we work hard to protect on every job.
AJ Electrical is run by founder Andre and his team. Andre grew up on the Hibiscus Coast, attended Orewa College, and trained through an apprenticeship in domestic, commercial and marine electrical work before spending years at sea as a marine engineer on superyachts. He returned to shore in 2009 and started AJ Electrical in 2011. Today he leads a team of qualified electricians based in Whangaparaoa. Because it is a family-run business, Andre and the team take personal pride in every job, which is why the same values have carried through from day one.
