Project Management

You have an architect, you have drawings, you have consent. What you need is the person who turns up every day, holds the schedule, and answers the phone when something does not go to plan.

What we do, end to end

One contract for the whole job, from the first site visit through to handover, with us booking and running every trade on it.

Where the value sits

One point of accountability

You stop chasing seven trades. You ring us, and we answer.

Programme in the open

The live programme is shared with you. You can see what is on this week, what is coming, and where the critical path runs.

Variations controlled

Variations are priced and signed before the work starts. No invoice arrives that you have not already seen.

Quality caught at source

Daily site walk-throughs. Problems get found where they happen, not written on a snag list three months later.

We will tell you honestly whether project management is the right call for your place.

Worth knowing
before you ring

How is project management priced?

Either a fixed management fee on top of the build cost, or a margin on the trades, whichever is fairer for the scope. We show you both on the quote and you choose.

Can you take over a project that has already started?

Yes, though it is harder. We would want a meeting with the previous builder, an inspection of the work to date, and a written scope of what remains. If we do not think stepping in makes sense, we will tell you.

What if I want to use my own subcontractors?

That is fine. If you have a tiler you have used for years, we will work with them. We just need the same agreement on programme and quality that we have with our own trades.

How far do you travel for project management?

Franklin, South Auckland and North Waikato. Past that the travel cost stops making sense for you, and we would rather say so than pad a quote.

Every job starts the same way: we come and look at it.
