New Trigg Website Live

Our new website is live. You’ll find information and photos of some of our favourite projects, team profiles, and news and views about construction and what we’ve been up to at work and out in the community. We’re excited to show it off, and we hope you like it as much as we do.

Hundertwasser Art Centre Open

The Hundertwasser Art Centre and Wairau Māori Art Gallery are now open. We may be a little biased, but we have to agree with others who have described it as an absolute taonga for the North and the country.

Project Updates

It’s been a busy first quarter for us. Our team is on-site and well into constructing a 5000m2 bulk store facility for Nutrinza. We’re also nearing completion on twelve 150m2 units at the Aubrey Business Centre, Marsden Cove. We’re pushing on with two new projects. The Ruakaka Recreation Centre is in detailed design for consent stage, and the Mangawhai Medical Centre is moving into the design stage now that resource consent is granted.

Meet the team: Michael Long

Mike (as we call him around here) has joined Team Trigg as a Contract/Project Manager. Having worked in the construction industry in New Zealand and overseas for over two decades, he has extensive experience successfully managing small and large scale commercial and technically challenging projects.

Fences down at Hundertwasser

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.

Project Updates

It’s been a busy last quarter for us finishing up some key projects, including the Hundertwasser Art Centre, where we’ve been on-site for the past 3 ½ years.

A word from Darrell: Looking ahead to 2022

Another one bites the dust! With the year-end imminent, I’ve been reflecting on the past twelve months and looking ahead (briefly) at the next twelve. Firstly, last Christmas seems like it was only last week! We’ve completed several projects, including the spectacular Hundertwasser Art Centre, and invested in our business and team.

Spotlight on Rhys Wasson

Rhys Wasson is a long-time member of Team Trigg. We’re super glad to have him on the team as he brings a massive amount of experience and skill from 35+ years working in construction around Whangarei. Over that time, he’s managed a real variety of projects. He is currently Construction Manager for the Hundertwasser Art Centre project, a building destined to become one of the region’s and New Zealand’s iconic structures.

Just for fun, we put our Trigg 10 Quick Questions to Rhys, and this is what he had to say.

395 New Public Houses In Northland

The Public Housing Plan 2021-2024 sets out the Government’s public housing supply intentions for the next four years and provides information about the location and number of an additional 8,000 public and transitional housing places that will be delivered by June 2024 – 6,000 public housing places and 2,000 transitional housing places.

A Word From Darrell

Price is an important part of any project, but more important is what you’re getting for that price. Clients are always after the best value they can get from their construction project or program. The industry and many clients are moving away from the limitations of traditional master-servant project relationships and lowest price tendering towards a more collaborative approach because of the many advantages a partnered approach to project procurement provides all partners.
