North Lakes and Surrounds Electrical made history in 2022 when it became the first joint winner of a Moreton Bay Business and Innovation Awards category.
The business won the Moreton Daily Award for Customer Service Excellence category, with Sesame Lane Care and Kindergarten.
It was the first time there had been joint winners in the history of the awards. Judges couldn’t split the businesses on points, opting instead to reward both for exceptional customer service.
North Lakes and Surrounds Electrical owners Rob and Kristina Petho credited their team for the win and said it was an honour to share it with Sesame Lane Care and Kindergarten, which has a strong reputation in the region.
They said their team, from staff answering the phones to apprentices and experienced electricians, offered exceptional customer service that set them apart from their competitors.
Rob and Kristina believe looking after their staff is equally important and it’s an aspect of their business they have focused on.
North Lakes and Surrounds Electrical has grown with the Moreton Bay Region, since it was launched in 2004.
