THE NT News called out to you, our readers, to help us find the Territory’s favourite tradie

And the people have spoken, with Neill Carberry of NC Electrical & Air Conditioning, Solar City, claiming victory by a sizeable margin.

Neill was nominated by many of his clients when the NT News first put out the call on Facebook to find the Territory’s best.

He said a good tradie needed to know what they were doing and simply provide a quality solution to their customers.

“You need to have a thorough understanding of the industry, commitment to customer service, be a tradie who cleans up after himself and commitment to a quality product,” he said.

“You need to be someone who tries to set the bar as high as possible in order to maintain the integrity of the industry.”

Neill said after establishing the electrical and airconditioning component of his business in 2010, he branched out into solar and renewable products in 2014.
