Homes in Whangaparāoa
From Red Beach to Army Bay
The Whangaparāoa Peninsula runs east from Orewa through Red Beach, Stanmore Bay, Manly and Gulf Harbour out to Army Bay. It is about 42km from our Kumeū base, so jobs here are booked into planned runs up the coast.
Housing goes from older coastal homes near the water to the 1980s and 90s subdivisions and the newer builds around Gulf Harbour. The older homes generate most of the switchboard and repair work.
Hot water and renovation work
When the hot water stops, the element, the thermostat or the supply circuit could be to blame, and they look the same from the tap. We test each one before recommending a repair or a new cylinder. You get the answer and a fixed price before anything is replaced.
Renovations are steady work too. Homes from the 1980s and 90s subdivisions get new kitchens, lighting plans and extra circuits, and older coastal homes often need a switchboard upgrade to cope.

Working in Whangaparāoa with Livewire
Sea on both sides
With water on both sides of the peninsula, salt air reaches almost every property. Outdoor lights and power points are specified marine grade so they hold up in the sea air. Stainless fixings and sealed fittings cost a little more, but you are not replacing them every few years.
We also do commercial lighting, installations and maintenance for shops and business premises on the peninsula, booked during weekday hours.
