We’re thrilled to be back on-site and picking up where we left off before lockdown on projects currently in construction. Recently we completed and handed over to Marsden Maritime Holdings the first group of 12 commercial units at the Aubrey Business Centre, and we’ve started work on the construction of the next 12.
Alongside our ongoing work at the Hundertwasser Arts Centre in Whangarei, the team at Trigg and all our subcontractors and suppliers are being kept seriously busy on these three local projects we have on the go right now.
Things are all-go at the Marsden Four Square site at Marsden Cove, where we’re constructing a 900m2, two-story commercial building for Marsden Maritime Holdings (MMH). Part of their Marina Precinct development, a new modern Four Square retail operation will occupy the ground floor, and the upper floor leased to mixed businesses.
We were tasked with demolishing an existing 8-lane service station, replacing the existing structure with a new 12-lane service station within 12 weeks. The project encompassed the construction of a new full-service gas station, with a shopfront, a retail centre, a forecourt and a canopy.
During construction, we experienced a rise in building construction costs, which threatened the viability of the entire project. Our team identified areas within the design and materials where significant reductions to the overall costing could be achieved.
