What Palmerston North locals say
Rated 5.0 on Google (22 reviews)"First Tech Electrical was amazing to deal with. He was very quick and efficient, with great pricing! He replaced a switch that had burnt out in our laundry, put a new heat pump in and replaced our old school circuit board. These upgrades have made a huge difference to our home. Thanks Kees for your awesome work, and we highly recommend First Tech Electrical. We will be using them again."
"Great communication, showed up on time and installed heat pump as quoted and also gave me a garage lighting upgrade. Highly recommend."
"Exceptional service! Turned up to wire up my little house 2 days after I called them up. Made no mess, top notch tidy work. Reasonably priced. Will be doing all my sparky work now."
"Highly recommend, great communication, punctual. Explained everything clearly and offered different options. Fantastic service."
Looking for a registered electrician in Palmerston North? First Tech is based right here, and we know local homes well. From the older villas around Hokowhitu and Terrace End to the newer builds out in Aokautere and Kelvin Grove, every place has its own quirks when it comes to heating and wiring, and we bring that local knowledge to every job across Palmerston North and the wider Manawatū.
Whether you are after a new heat pump to get through a cold Palmy winter, a switchboard that has seen better days, or just a reliable sparky who turns up and does tidy work, we have got you covered across the city and the region. As a local electrical contractor we take on the lot, from a single power point through to a full rewire, for homeowners, landlords and small commercial jobs around Palmerston North.
Palmy homes are a real mix, and each type comes with its own thing to watch. The character villas around Hokowhitu and West End often have older wiring and tight switchboards that need a careful eye before a heat pump goes in. The flats and rentals near Massey and Fitzherbert need work done properly and signed off. And the new subdivisions out at Whakarongo and Aokautere are all about getting the heating and lighting right from the start. We have worked on the lot, so nothing much throws us.
