AutoSparks Ashburton has always been a family business at heart.

Built on trust, hard work, and a commitment to Canterbury, it’s been Tony and Megan Houston leading the way from the start. Their journey began at Smallbones Ashburton — Tony on the tools as an auto sparky, Megan running the admin and accounts. More than 20 years on, not much has changed. They’re still rolling up their sleeves every day, now as the proud owners of AutoSparks, making sure every customer gets the same care, efficiency, and reliability that have become the hallmark of the workshop.

One place, every solution.
Today, AutoSparks is Ashburton’s trusted one-stop shop for auto electrical, mechanical, batteries, and tyres. We look after everyday vehicles, commercial fleets, and the kind of farm machinery that’s getting smarter and more reliant on solid electrical systems every year. We also specialise in suspension upgrades for trade utes and fit-outs for vans — helping local businesses get the most from their vehicles.

A team you can rely on.
Alongside Tony and Megan is a skilled crew: four qualified auto electricians, three mechanical technicians, and a qualified engineer/hydraulics tech. Together, they bring professional, high-quality workmanship to every job, big or small.

Backed by trusted names.
We’ve proudly partnered with Battery Town for many years and became part of the Auto Super Shoppe group in 2016, further backing up our promise of safety, compliance, and excellence.

Bringing precision to the land.
For over a decade, we’ve also supplied and installed Topcon Agriculture spraying and spreading controls, guidance systems, and weigh scales — combining cutting-edge technology with practical know-how to support contractors and farmers across the region.

Here for the long haul.
At AutoSparks, it’s never just about fixing what’s in front of us. It’s about building lasting partnerships and keeping your vehicles and machinery safe, compliant, and running at their best.
