Office moves & fit-outs in Te Atatū
The furniture is the easy part of moving offices. The internet connection that takes weeks to install, the cabling that has to go in before the ceiling closes and the network that must work at nine on Monday are where moves go wrong. We plan the IT side from the first floor plan to day one.
Onsite technicians cover Te Atatū. Most problems are fixed remotely first; when a job needs hands, a technician comes to you.
Office moves & fit-outs for Te Atatū businesses
Te Atatu Peninsula and Te Atatu South are mostly residential, with local shopping centres, medical and dental practices, trades businesses, early childhood centres and many home-based professionals who appreciate the quick motorway access. Commercial premises are generally small.
Many businesses here are owner-operators with a few staff, using cloud accounting and phones more than desktop computers. The common gaps are shared passwords, no multi-factor sign-in, personal email used for business and no backup, all of which are inexpensive to fix and remove a lot of risk.
Then we run the move itself. Equipment is labelled and shut down cleanly, the network is built and tested at the new site before staff arrive, and on the first morning a technician is there walking the floor, checking every desk, printer and meeting room. The whole project is quoted in writing first. A week later we check in again to tidy loose ends, update your network documentation with the new layout and make sure the old premises have been fully cleared of equipment and data.
We visit Te Atatu practices, offices and home businesses for setups and fixes, and provide remote help for most requests. Pay as you go suits small teams with occasional needs.
What's included
Building check
Before you sign, we check internet availability, existing cabling, the comms cupboard and phone and mobile coverage at the new address.
Day-one support
A technician on site the first morning, checking every desk, meeting room, printer and phone and fixing problems as they appear.
Internet ordering
Fibre and a backup connection ordered early, with lead times tracked and chased so the line is live before move day.
Builder and electrician coordination
We work with your fit-out team so data cabling, power for equipment and ceiling access happen in the right order.
Cabling and Wi-Fi design
Data points, access point positions and the comms cabinet marked on the floor plan, with a written specification for the cabling installer.
Move weekend
Computers, servers, printers and screens labelled, packed, moved and reconnected, with each one checked against the plan.
Is it right for your Te Atatū office?
Bring us in early if:
- You are choosing between buildings and want to know the internet options
- A fit-out is starting and the builder needs a cabling plan
- Your move date is fixed and the internet hasn't been ordered yet
- You are expanding into a second floor or another tenancy
- You want staff working normally on the first morning in the new office
How getting started works
- Free IT health check. We look at your devices, accounts, backups and network and tell you what we find, in plain English.
- Clear proposal. A written monthly price per user and a list of any fixes, with nothing hidden.
- Handover. We collect admin access and documentation from your current provider and keep your team working.
- Day-one fixes. Security gaps, failed backups and urgent risks are dealt with first.
Office moves & fit-outs in Te Atatū: questions
We use personal Gmail for our business. Should we change?
A business email on your own domain looks more professional, is easier to secure and stays with the business when people leave. We can move you to Microsoft 365 and bring your old email across.
What does an early childhood centre need from IT?
Reliable devices for staff and the centre management system, secure handling of children's records and photos, and Wi-Fi that covers the building. We set those up and keep them maintained.
Do you install the cabling?
We design the network cabling and Wi-Fi, specify it and manage the installer, or do smaller low-voltage cabling jobs ourselves. Power outlets and any mains wiring are done by a registered electrician.
How early should we involve you?
As early as possible, and at least two to three months before the move. Business fibre can take several weeks, longer where a new connection to the building is needed, and cabling has to be planned before walls and ceilings are closed.
Should we buy new equipment for the move?
A move is a good time to replace ageing switches, Wi-Fi or a tired server, because the work is happening anyway. We'll tell you what is worth moving and what isn't.
How much does an office move cost?
It depends on the number of staff, the state of the new building and how much equipment is moving. After a site visit we send a written quote that lists each stage, so there are no surprises.
