Our beginnings were humble.

DeAraugo & Lea Electrical Contractors began in 1983 with just two passionate electricians. Under the guidance of the late Director, Steve DeAraugo, it flourished into one of Bendigo's best electrical contracting companies. Today, after 41+ years, Steve's sons, Lachy and Toby, proudly carry forward their father's legacy. Committed to local operations, we are honoured to employ Bendigo's finest electricians.
