Westland
Aotea Electric Westland has been operating for over 8 years on the West Coast of the South Island. Starting off small, we have rapidly grown into the market
leader for all electrical projects big and small on the Coast. With an operating staff of 34 and based out of Greymouth, we cover the coast from Karamea to Haast. Due to our geographic isolation
our skill base is very broad and we have developed a real "can-do" attitude to all work that comes in the door.
At Aotea Electric Westland we are proud to be able to offer the following services:
- Contracting - tenders, design/builds, mining, commercial and mechanical services
- Electrical servicing - residential, commercial and industrial
- Refrigeration - residential, commercial and industrial
- Heat pumps
- Data & Communications
- Free-to-view
- Security
- Washtech - commercial dishwasher servicing
- Fire Protection - commercial design/build systems
- Mining - underground designs and installations for coal mining
- Dairy - design and installation of automation and controls systems
Refrigeration Specialists
Aotea Electric Westland now has a strong refrigeration team ready to offer professional service to any client requiring the
installation, service and preventative maintenance of any industrial and commercial refrigeration and air-conditioning equipment.
We boast a team of two fully qualified refrigeration engineers and one apprentice who have a wide range of industry
experience. We service industries such as dairy, fishing, mining, transport, marine, supermarkets, motels and hotels.
We believe the reasons we have been successful to date are:
- The high emphasis we put on customer service
- Our ability to retain highly qualified staff due to our unique company culture which values its employees. We are very grateful for
their commitment to the company effort.
- Our commitment to training apprentices to ensure a solid stream of trained talent to ensure we can continue our quality service well
into the future.
- Our standards of quality we maintain to ensure we are continued to be seen as a professional refrigeration
company.

What our Customers Say:
Re: Refrigeration
"Aotea Electric Westland provide excellent service to ad-hoc calls for assistance, their technical expertise and quality of personnel is in my opinion second to
none. There have been occasions where that experience and knowledge have been able to create solutions that are not only cost-effective but save equipment that would otherwise be redundant.
Lesser organisations would simply start replacing high cost parts."
