Homes in Te Atatū Peninsula
Water on three sides
Te Atatū Peninsula reaches out into the upper Waitematā Harbour, about 18km from our base via the Northwestern motorway. The village shops along Te Atatū Road sit in the middle, with streets running down to the water on either side.
It feels like a village, and plenty of homeowners have been here for decades and are now renovating rather than moving. That is where most of our work on the peninsula comes from, along with switchboard upgrades and rewires.
Renovated homes with bigger loads
Most houses here date from the 1960s and 70s, and many have been renovated or rebuilt to make the most of the views. A new kitchen, a heat pump and an outdoor living area add load the original switchboard was never designed for.
Before any new lighting goes in, we look at what the board can carry and whether it needs replacing as part of the job.

Working in Te Atatū Peninsula with Livewire
Decks, gardens and the village strip
Decks and gardens facing the harbour cop a lot of weather, so outdoor fittings need a proper IP rating. We plan outdoor lighting and power around how you actually use the space in the evening, with switching inside the house where it is handy.
For businesses along the main strip, fit-outs and maintenance are planned to cause as little disruption to trading as we can manage within weekday hours. Every job, home or business, is signed off with a Certificate of Compliance.
