About the job

The brief

Livewire Electrical Ltd was appointed by FSL Construction & Interiors to undertake electrical upgrades for the Skechers retail store at Manawa Bay Premium Outlets in Auckland. The scope covered pre-wire installation, fit-off to a specific detailed lighting design, working alongside the structural engineer to meet seismic standards, power points and data, and installation of speakers and feature lighting.

The challenges

  • Extremely tight deadlines for store handover ahead of the outlet centre's publicised opening.
  • A very large construction site with multiple trades and health and safety requirements all working to the same deadline.
  • Changes to the seismic and lighting design during the fit-out.

How we handled it

All material orders were pre-planned, measured and quantified before work started. The team worked to minor milestones through the fit-out so everything landed before store handover, with regular communication between the project manager, lead electrician, engineers and suppliers so problems were mitigated quickly.

The outcome

Skechers handed over to the main contractor on time and the store was stocked ahead of the Manawa Bay opening day. The electrical works came in on budget, with excellent feedback from the health and safety manager and the end client. The team was led by Kent Griffin with the installation managed by Brendon Chappell, supported by Livewire electricians and apprentices.

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 😁
