After more than three years, the construction fences have come down on Whangarei's Hundertwasser Art Centre, and you can now see this spectacular building in all its glory. Unfortunately, the pandemic has delayed the public opening of the Art Centre and Wairau Māori Art Gallery until 20 February 2022.
We’re delighted to be appointed the preferred construction partner for the new Ruakaka Recreation Centre. After a rigorous selection process based on Early Contractor Involvement, Trigg Construction was chosen, successfully winning the contract on our experience, track record, and community involvement.

When Marlene got a call from One Tree Point Primary School about needing an away sports uniform, she jumped at the chance to help out. One Tree Point School is a Year 1-6 primary school with around 250 students, situated south of Whangārei on a beautiful site across from the Harbour.
10 September is World Suicide Prevention Day. It’s an opportunity for people in New Zealand and worldwide to raise awareness of suicide and suicide prevention. MATES in Construction has moved its annual Fly the Flag campaign to get behind suicide prevention from 10 September to 10 November due to the recent lockdown that continues to affect our mates in Auckland.
