John and Matthew Lisiewicz
High loads specialist
In 1985, John Lisiewicz began his career as an electrical linesman at one of Queensland’s largest electrical providers.
John’s experience in building, maintaining and fixing electrical lines saw him gain the opportunity to clear electrical lines for high loads and that’s where his passion for delivering these unique transport solutions began.
After working in this industry for 30 years, he decided to use his knowledge, experience and reputation to begin CQ High Loads in 2011, to provide a more dedicated and tailored approach for customers.
Together with his son Matthew Lisiewicz, who has many years working as an electrician and running his own electrical company, CQ High Loads grew to become a team of more than 10 employees spanning Central Queensland and into Brisbane.
