Whangaparāoa is about 42 kilometres from Livewire's Kumeū base, out along the peninsula past Orewa. Common work is home renovation wiring and lighting plans, hot water cylinder faults and repairs, switchboard upgrades on older coastal homes, and commercial installations for businesses on the peninsula. Outdoor fittings are specified for salt air. Fixed quotes and a Certificate of Compliance on every job.

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.

Fantastic team! Our request was answered promptly and professionally. The electrician sent to our home, Tom, was efficient, friendly and great communicator. I also appreciated the tidiness at the work site after finishing and during the work. We are satisfied with the work carried out- moving and installing tricky PowerPoints in a kitchen and tiled bathroom. I will definitely be using this team again.

Epic service from the Livewire Electrical team! We had an urgent breaker issue on a switchboard, logged the job at short notice and they had it attended to and sorted within 2 hours. Fast, professional and easy to deal with from start to finish. Really appreciate the quick turnaround when we needed it. Highly recommend the Livewire team!

Jared and Tom were very friendly and efficient. Their workmanship was excellent. They were prompt on arrival, tidy with tools and equipment. They then tested the work they had done and did not leave the property until they, and myself, were satisfied that the job was to a high standard and working perfectly.

Absolutely A+ was my experience with Annette and the team. Had house electrical issues, Vector kept telling us it was our issue to sort...Livewire listened and diagnosed over the phone, pointed us back to Vector to sort it. Saved us a call out and no charge for advice. Awesome service and will be our first port of call next time. Thanks again

Thank you livewire electrical. The office team were chipper and helpful on the phone. Appointment was set to suit my schedule. Tom, the sparky, was prompt. He did a great job to fix all our problems. He was polite, cheerful and fixed everything in no time. Pricing is very reasonable. I'd like to give bonus points from the dog to Tom. She appreciated to be able to spectate your work 😁
