Aaron, powering to the rescue.

Amidst the chaos of the first day of Junior Surf at Omanu Beach Surf Life Saving Club, and a beach humming with activity on Sunday November 1, a call came in from Coastguard New Zealand alerting the lifesaving team to a kayak sinking 400m off shore. Within minutes the club launched an inflatable Rescue Boat (IRB) and powered through the large surf towards a kayak paddle waving in the air that one of the crew members spotted. The two kayakers were clinging to their half-submerged craft – but thankfully were wearing lifejackets. This combined with being able to keep their…

As kiwis, we love helping kiwis thrive.

We’ve been helping them out along with a number of locals, by sitting on the hills in the dark and listening out for kiwi calls for their annual Kiwi Call Survey in the Coromandel area. The data is collated and assessed to determine what it means, and the implications for future practice to ensure the kiwi population in the Coromandel thrives. Some of the great results for the Kiwi Call Survey 2020 included: • One male kiwi recorded in the Waitaia Loop Track…

Just Sheds are even popping up as cafes!

Our client fitted the portable building out as a showroom, sales office and cafe, complete with a sunny deck and seating – and also made it open to the public. Supplied as a 12m x 3m unit with three windows and three bi-fold doors, it was a very heavy portable building – but we were proud to deliver and install it safely earlier this year.

The doctors were extremely grateful that we could supply them with two sparkling-clean brand new 6m x 3m offices with…
