Hi, I’m Bevan Simpkin — I’ve been a sparky for over 30 years, and these days I specialise in one thing: getting your machines running again, fast, wherever in Auckland you are.
My apprenticeship put me straight into industrial and agricultural electrics — pumps, coolstores, controls, the kind of gear that has to keep running or someone’s losing money by the hour. That’s where I cut my teeth on troubleshooting, and it’s the skill that’s stuck with me ever since.
From there I moved into auto-electrical sales as a product specialist, which taught me how to translate technical problems into plain English for the people actually dealing with them. Later, as a Marketing Manager handling technical enquiries, I got just as comfortable explaining a fault to a customer as fixing it.
In August 2016, I went out on my own — bought the van, and never looked back. Electrical is my trade, but troubleshooting is my thing: the harder the fault, the more I want to find it. Electrical is my passion – once a sparky, always a sparky they say!
We’re based just north of Auckland, but we’re on the road across the whole city — North Shore, Auckland CBD, West and South Auckland included. If your machine’s down, I’ll come to you. Downtime doesn’t wait for good traffic, and neither do I.
Some of the more interesting jobs over the years: automated conveyor systems, a pallet remanufacturing line, a machine that loads trays of eggs into a grader, and even an automated distillery.
If it’s got a few buttons and maybe a PLC, chances are we’ve seen something like it before.
At the end of the day, I’m a straight-up bloke who wants the job done properly and your machine back online, so me and my team are obsessed with excellence and customer satisfaction.
