Thirty years ago, Phil Garde, having previously learnt his trade while working for other companies, established Garde Services Pty Ltd in New South Wales. His sole aim was to create a team of specialists that could install high voltage cables underground regardless of how complex the laying task might be.

Since then, Phil, along with his business partner Garry Hobson has taken the company to the top of its game, clearly emerging as leaders in the installation of underground high voltage cables.
