ABOUT US
HOW IT STARTED
Way back in 2001, two workmates and sparkies (Neil & Ian) were employed by another firm when they realised they could do better – not just for themselves, but for their customers. That year they went into business together with the aim to do just that, and that’s how we ended up with Callahan & Martella Electrical Ltd. Since Neil's departure from the company in 2023, Callahan & Martella Electrical continues to thrive under Ian (affectionately known as Marty)'s leadership, ensuring the legacy of superior service and customer satisfaction endures.
A GREAT TEAM
We have grown a lot since 2001. Currently, at Callahan & Martella Electrical we employ 25 staff members consisting of seven electricians, eight apprentices, four appliance technicians, one electrical engineer, a project manager, a security & data technician, and three office staff members.
EXCELLENCE AND PROFESSIONALISM
We have been a cornerstone of Marlborough's electrical services for 24 years. Our steadfast commitment to excellence is evident in every project we undertake. With a seasoned team of friendly and knowledgeable professionals, we specialise in a comprehensive range of electrical services.
PERSONALISED APPROACH
Our approach goes beyond just completing tasks; it's about forging meaningful connections with our clients and understanding their unique needs. We believe in a personal touch, taking the time to listen, communicate, and collaborate closely with each client to ensure that their vision is realised seamlessly. Whether it's a small residential project or a large-scale commercial endeavor, we approach every job with the same level of dedication and attention to detail.
ACROSS THE REGION AND BEYOND
From the early days of just two guys, two vans, a good sense of humour and a lot of hard work, the business grew steadily and is now the largest of its kind in Marlborough. Today, we have 20 vans on the road and employ 25 people, serving awesome customers throughout the entire region, from the Marlborough Sounds, to Kaikōura.
LICENSED AND INSURED
We prioritise not just excellence in our work but also the peace of mind of our clients. As proud members of Electrical Contractors Association of New Zealand (ECANZ) and Master Electricians, we adhere to the highest standards of professionalism, ensuring that all our staff hold the necessary licenses for their respective fields of expertise. Customers can expect top quality work that is consistent with the ECANZ charter.
