Our Story
Born and bred in Whanganui. Meet the team behind Boyd Electrical.
I'm Matthew Boyd, and I started Boyd Electrical over 15 years ago right here in Whanganui, the place I was born and raised.
We love living here. The outdoors right on our doorstep and a good community vibe. It's home and always will be.
What started as just me and a ute has grown into a solid team of skilled electricians and apprentices. We've wired hundreds of homes, installed countless solar systems, kept businesses running, and helped Whanganui locals with everything from emergency callouts to full commercial fit outs.
Outside of electrical, I've done my own property developments over the years which means I can offer guidance on the wider build project too. Seeing different ways to do things from the other side gives us a perspective that most sparkies don't have.
The team now is Jack, Scott, Laura and Amy. Solid crew. Great attitudes, great work ethic, and they know their stuff. When they turn up to your door, you won’t be disappointed.
When we're not working, you'll find us doing what we love. Biking, hunting up the river, and making the most of everything Whanganui has to offer.
We're proud to be locals serving locals. This is our community, and we're here for the long haul.
BEHIND THE TOOLS
Matthew Boyd
Matthew founded Boyd Electrical nearly 10 years ago with a mission to provide honest, quality electrical work to Whanganui. Born and bred in the region, he treats every job like it's his own home.
Jack Terrey
Jack started helping Matthew out when he was just 16. He took the leap into an apprenticeship and now handles the complex jobs and mentors newer team members.
Scott Boyd
Scott is Matthew's brother. He followed Jack into the trade, recently qualified, and is now fully on the tools across all types of electrical work.
Laura Kidd
Laura joined as a fourth year apprentice and hit the ground running. She's picked things up fast and is on track to qualify soon.
Proud to Call Whanganui Home
