PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Splash Planet upgrade

In 2023 we led a 1.2 million dollar multi-trade upgrade of Splash Planet, including new decks, tracks, playgrounds, refurbished changing rooms, landscaping and EV charging. Despite tight timeframes and a large-scale power upgrade, the project was delivered on time and to a high standard.

Cyclone Gabrielle emergency response

During the 2023 cyclone we mobilised 70 percent of our workforce within hours, setting up welfare centres, installing generators and repairing damaged facilities to support emergency services.

Hastings and Napier council contracts

Thousands of jobs delivered across social housing, aquatic centres, libraries and civic buildings, recognised for quality, responsiveness and strong health and safety performance.

Smarter Job Management

Good service isn’t just about the tools in the van—it’s about how the job is managed. That’s why we use a digital system that lets us:

  • Schedule and track work in real time
  • Record job notes, photos and documentation
  • Monitor progress and quality standards
  • Provide secure client portal access for updates and asset history

This system gives you transparency, accountability and efficiency from start to finish.
