Homes in Orewa
The main town on the Hibiscus Coast
Orewa is about 36km from our base, up the Northern motorway. It has a long surf beach, a busy main street, and houses ranging from old baches and 1970s homes to newer apartments along the beachfront and up the hill.
We book Orewa jobs into planned runs up the coast during the week. That suits renovations, switchboard upgrades and new circuits, which are most of what we do here.
Salt air and outdoor fittings
Standard outdoor fittings corrode quickly this close to the sea, sometimes within a year or two. Once a fitting corrodes it lets water in, and that leads to tripping and lights that stop working.
For anything outside we use marine-grade fittings with a high IP rating. They cost a bit more up front and last a lot longer. Switchgear in garages and sheds near the beach gets checked for the same corrosion.
Working in Orewa with Livewire
Older baches and main-street businesses
Many older baches and 1970s homes have been extended over the years without the switchboard ever being updated. We do switchboard upgrades, rewires and renovation wiring for those homes, plus EV chargers and heat pump supplies for homes that are now lived in year-round.
For shops and cafes on the main street, we handle lighting, fit-outs and maintenance during the working week, planned with you so it suits trading.
