About Us

Our History

Robyn and Mark Tootill

Tootill Electrical was established in 1985 when Mark and Robyn decided to go into business for themselves. With honesty, integrity and a customer first attitude, Mark grew the business to become well known and respected in the region. He went on to specialise in the servicing and maintenance of commercial equipment which gave him a unique edge within a growth industry.

With Mark’s expertise, Tootill Electrical soon became the number one service agent in the fast food industry. Between burgers and pizzas, business increased over the next 35 years. With a great culture and loyal employees, this “one man band” grew to a staff of 10+ covering a vast area.

In 2021 they decided to move on from the successful electrical business they had created. Given their staff were like family to them, finding new owners to “fit” was paramount.

Simon and Natalie are proud to be the new owners of this esteemed company, which was renamed to Tootill Services, and will strive to carry on the trusted legacy Mark and Robyn have left behind.

We trust you will join us on our journey and can assure you, we will continue Robyn and Mark’s great work.

Our Directors

Simon and Natalie, originally from Wellington, returned from overseas in 2017. They relocated to the Manawatū in the hopes of settling in a family orientated town. Natalie began an administration business and Simon worked as a Project Manager for the Ministry of Education and the New Zealand Defence Force.

Owning an established business was a long time goal of theirs and they were always on the lookout for one with a caring reputation and a great team culture. With Simon’s electrical and instrumentation trade background and Natalie’s business acumen, Tootill Electrical felt like the perfect fit.

It has been an honour to fill the very big shoes left by Robyn and Mark. We look forward to a future of Tootill Services growing and thriving under our leadership.
