Creaky floor

Steve was very professional. A day after he completed the job I texted him to let him know that I still had concerns as my floor was still creaking. Without hesitation, he returned the following day and did all that he could to fix the problem. He assured me that my foundation was safe and that I should not have any concerns about the piling underneath my house. He was honest and did all he could. I am satisfied with his work.

Alex completed my project to perfection, the whole thing turned out better than I imagined. He caused minimal issues to the surrounding area, where I was expecting damage to be part of the project. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alex to anyone and would certainly use his skills in the future.

Floor stablizing in parts of house.

Alvirg was a highly motivated worker. He communicated with us daily and he worked with great commitment to get our floor as stable as possible. He worked in a difficult situation with a smile. Alvirg worked on our house piles in very tight and cramped conditions with very little crawl space under the house. We paid 50% deposit before he started and final payment on day of completion.

Slabs

House Slabs Aniseed Valley, Tasman

5.0

Placed 3 slabs in one day - couldn't be happier. We've used a range of concrete placers in Nelson and Concrete Unlimited have outperformed them all. They managed to get the job done without needing concrete pumps which was a big cost saving. Surface finish and levels were great. Cut the next day with zero cracking.

Koutu Rotorua Sloping relocated house

House Piling Rotorua, Rotorua

4.0

Our job required levelling the house due to geothermal activity in rotorua. Releveled and caused very superfical cracking inside house, slight problem with one window requiring us to remove one window security. The crew were well prepared, good communication every step of the job. Some unforseen expense getting access so removed fibrelite surrounds, but minimal small extra cost. Added 6 extra piles to relieve outter house weight.

These guys were fantastic. Considering we had an absolute downpour they continue to work, until it was not possible due to the bad weather. They were friendly, but professional also. Couldn't fault them, or the company they work for. I will definitely recommend them to anyone needing their skills and professionalism. It's so nice to have a company you can trust and rely on to get the job done. Well done everyone that has been involved. I don't have any photos at this time.

Choosing the Right Foundation Specialist in Central Otago

When it comes to building or renovating your home in Central Otago, choosing the right foundation specialist is crucial. The region's unique climate, which swings from hot summers to harsh, freezing winters, means your home requires a solid foundation that can cope with these extremes. A foundation specialist with a deep understanding of soil mechanics and local conditions may ensure your project stands the test of time.

The Importance of a Detailed Contract

One of the first steps in your project should be securing a detailed contract with your chosen foundation specialist. This document should clearly outline the scope of work, the schedule, and the costs. It's particularly important in Central Otago, where winter conditions can cause delays. Rainy and icy weather can make soil too soft or frozen for construction, affecting the timeline of your build.

Experience Matters

The expertise of your foundation specialist is paramount. Look for professionals with a robust reputation, plenty of experience, and strong qualifications. Inspecting their online reviews, asking for references, and considering their previous projects in Central Otago can give you a good gauge of their capability. An experienced specialist should work alongside architects and engineers, ensuring your foundation is perfectly integrated into the overall design of your home.

Communication Is Key

Throughout the duration of your project, maintaining regular communication with your foundation specialist is essential. Regular updates help ensure the project stays on track and any issues are dealt with promptly. Given Central Otago's dynamic weather patterns, having an open line of communication may help you adjust plans as needed and minimise disruptions.

Leveraging Advanced Tools

Foundation specialists often rely on advanced design software, such as AutoCAD and Revit, to plan and execute their work. These tools allow for precise designs, ensuring the foundational structure of your home is both strong and sustainable. In a region known for its modern and minimalist homes, the precision these tools offer is invaluable.

Prioritising Environmental Awareness

Finally, consider the environmental impact of your building project. Experienced foundation specialists in Central Otago should have knowledge of sustainable practices and materials. By prioritising these practices, you not only contribute to the region's natural beauty but also optimise the long-term sustainability and resilience of your home.
