We are currently looking to increase the size of our team as works progress to ensure we hit the dates we need to get this project humming, good plumbers are hard to find in Auckland but I believe we have a couple in the wings ready to join the team.

As a company here in NZ we have recently just ticked over 5yrs of working on NZ projects which I think is something worth noting. Like any new adventureinlifetherearetrialsandtribulationsyou have to face and overcome and we have hit some challenging patches in our time here, but we soldier on as always and continue to aim to be betterandgrowfromtheselessonlearnt. As always if any of you out there are are ever in Auckland NZ be sure to get in touch and come see whatweareupto.
