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.

“I had a light fitting which required an unusual LCD ring which I could not source despite trying numerous outlets. Quin came around the next morning about 09h00 and by 10h45 had not only sourced the fitting but fetched 5 of them and replaced all my fittings of that type. This was exceptionally efficient and friendly service. He also gave me advice on another electrical problem that other electricians had previously tried to fix and failed. This is now working well. I will definitely use them again.”
“Super impressed with the team at AJ electrical, very responsive, fast quote and quick turn around. They upgraded our switchboard and hooked up our spa. Can’t fault their customer experience and workmanship. Thank you.”
