Mister Sparky is a team of five. Small enough that you deal with the same people every time, big enough to take on a full building.
Marco Bosgra, Director and Registered Electrician
Marco has around 20 years in the trade. He is originally from up north, doing his apprenticeship and working for Philip Beston Electrical in Pukekohe, where over six years he helped grow the business from a two man operation into a company with a number of employees.
"I have always liked jobs with a bit of variety. One of the best parts of my apprenticeship and first job was the range of sites I worked on. I got a taste of rural, domestic, commercial and industrial electrical work."
Marco now calls Christchurch home and lives here with his wife Anita and their family. He handles quoting, design and the technical side of the larger jobs, and is usually the person you talk to first.
Anita Bosgra, Admin and Finance
When Anita first met Marco she was working at his local bank and did not expect to end up in the electrical industry.
After getting married she became more involved in the day to day running of Mister Sparky. She now spends most of her time raising four future apprentices who cannot wait to join their dad on site, and works part time in the office looking after administration and accounts.
The team
The rest of the team are registered and training electricians working across residential, commercial and industrial jobs. Apprentices work under supervision, and all work is tested and signed off by a registered electrician. You will see the same faces on your job rather than whoever was free that week.
