Southcombe Electrical is a family-run crew based right here in Whanganui, and we handle the lot. A single powerpoint, downlights through the lounge, a heat pump before winter, an old switchboard swapped out, an EV charger on the garage wall, solar on the roof, a full house rewire, the wiring on a new build, or the phone ringing at 9pm with the power out. It all runs through the same local team.
Josh has been on the tools for 15+ years and we've done 2,500+ jobs across Whanganui and beyond. Every job gets a fixed quote up front, tidy work, a full safety check before we leave, and the certification to prove it.
One local crew. Same hands, every job.

Whanganui's highest rated electricians
We take pride in the work. The reviews speak for themselves.
Josh sorted our new switchboard in a day and left the place spotless. Turned up when he said he would and talked us through the whole job. Could not fault it.
Had a heat pump installed before winter. Fair quote, no surprises, and it was running the same afternoon. Genuinely nice crew to have in the house.
Power went out at 9pm and they answered the phone. Someone was here within the hour and had us sorted. You do not get that service everywhere.
Full rewire on our old villa. Tidy work through the whole place, kept us in the loop the entire time, and the certification was all handed over at the end.
Feature lighting through the lounge and kitchen, exactly what we wanted and better than we pictured. Real eye for the detail.
Booked them for a couple of powerpoints and ended up getting the whole board looked at. Honest, straight up, and reasonably priced. Will use again.
