Homes in Waimauku
Seven kilometres down State Highway 16
Waimauku is about 7km west of our Kumeū base along SH16, on the road out to Muriwai. After Kumeū itself it is one of the places we work most often, so a Waimauku booking is a normal part of our week.
The area is a mix of lifestyle blocks, market gardens and rural subdivisions along the highway. Long driveways and outbuildings mean plenty of cable runs a long way from the switchboard, and older farmhouse boards that were never meant to feed them.
Hot water on older rural properties
Many older homes here heat their water three ways: a wetback on the fire, solar panels on the roof and an electric element as backup. When the water goes cold, any one of the three could be the cause.
We work through each system in turn and only replace the part that has actually failed. That is cheaper than swapping the cylinder and hoping, and you know exactly what was wrong.

Working in Waimauku with Livewire
Gates, pumps and the local school
Lifestyle blocks rely on electric gates and water pumps, and both tend to stop at the worst time. We repaired one Waimauku gate motor on a same-afternoon visit after a weed eater damaged it, so the owners had their access back that day.
We also do maintenance work at Waimauku School, including a tender for electrical work on the toilet block that serves classrooms 22 to 28. School work is planned around the timetable and the holidays.
