Tītahi Bay was a seaside resort that grew slowly until a large state housing programme after the Second World War turned it into a suburb, with state houses under construction by 1949. Homes run from the beach and its painted boatsheds up the peninsula towards Whitireia Park.
Many of the post-war homes are now around 75 years old, and homes near the beach face salt air on outdoor fittings. We fix leaks, drains and hot water across Tītahi Bay, with a fixed price agreed before we start.

Homes in Tītahi Bay
Tītahi Bay's housing is mostly post-war state housing from the late 1940s and 1950s, including the Austrian state houses recorded in 1951, mixed with coastal homes from its resort days and later private houses. Many of the post-war homes still have original drains and ageing supply pipe.
