Coastal Connections was founded in North Auckland by husband-and-wife team Joe and Kimberly Kelly to bring together expert craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and a people-first approach to every project.

With over 20 years’ experience in electrical and smart home automation, Joe leads with deep technical knowledge and a calm, solution-oriented mindset. His work with advanced systems like Lutron and Savant has made Coastal Connections a trusted name in high-end automation across Auckland.

Kimberly is a qualified lighting designer with a background in nursing, offering both creative precision and a rare level of empathy and care. Her design expertise—shaped by a Graduate Certificate in Science and Technology (Lighting)—ensures every space is tailored not just for aesthetics, but for how people truly live.

Together, they created Coastal Connections to meet the growing demand for personalised, design-led electrical and automation services. As proud Master Electricians and an independent business, every project reflects their values: excellence, integrity, and genuine care.
