Terry Smith and John “Fred” Everett, the founding directors of Everett Smith and Company, owned and operated the organisation for over 50 years. Whilst both were skilled tradesmen, they went on to develop their skills and education to provide more technical contributions to the company. In that time, however, they never lost their passion for providing high quality work to their clients.
The baton has been passed to a new generation, but the ethos of the organisation has not changed. Everett Smith and Company employs many highly skilled tradesmen who provide a high standard of work to ensure the best quality outcome on all of our projects. Those tradesmen at the coalface are supported by equally talented supervisors, project managers and technical personnel, all of an equally outstanding skill level.
During the last 60 years, the electrical trade has seen significant change. It takes a continuous effort to monitor those changes; to understand how they will impact our clients and to incorporate those which are deemed appropriate to be added to our offering. Technology, work methods, and with the actual tasks that tradesmen are required to perform and constantly being updated; our suppliers are constantly assessed, and our management staff strives to keep abreast of all that is happening or will be happening with our trade in the future.
The construction industry is a continuously evolving environment, and keeping up with the changes across the entire industry is critical to providing the outcomes that Everett Smith strives to deliver. The electrical trade is involved from the moment a project begins to the moment it ends, and every facet of a major construction project involves the expertise that Everett Smith delivers. We provide the best outcomes because we work so hard to understand what is required right across the project, not just those things that directly involve the electrical trade.
To deliver high quality electrical services, an electrical company needs to be able to provide their clients with the best advice; be able to offer engineered alternatives in keeping with our understanding of the outcomes of design decisions which only a trade-based organisation can provide. We add value to the projects in which we are involved by providing alternatives that suit the project construction needs and the required outcomes of the project.
It is these skills and this philosophy that allows Everett Smith and company to offer the certainty to their clients that have kept the company in business for 60 years.
