Master Electricians Hastings Napier Hawkes Bay
Master Electricians Hastings covering the Hawke’s Bay region. Quite a long time ago, in 1991, Colin Harkness decided to go into business for himself, a sparky by trade, Colin started out with a local Hawke’s Bay firm as a youngster and now has over thirty-five years in the industry.
It’s a bit of a family affair nowadays for master electricians Hastings, as Harkness Electrical is proud to employ four of Colin’s five children plus two sons-in-law, in various roles.
Wife, Jan (director) helps with administration duties, though she keeps up her own interests as well and maintains a healthy distance from the business with her commitment to voluntary community children’s work.
Colin loves family and church time outside of the business, adores his twelve grandchildren, and on weekends you’ll likely see him on his pushbike or at the local café relaxing with a coffee.
