  • Renewal of ACC – WSMP Accreditation.
    We are pleased to advise that our Tertiary Accreditation has been renewed for the next two years.
    The renewal is an endorsement of our system and procedures and as the Auditor identified “the company continues to make a determined effort to continuously improve health and safety” he also noted “a strong safety culture amongst management and staff”.
    We continue to make a strong commitment to health and safety through training and supervision. All staff has as a minimum Site Safe Civil passport as well as 1st Aid. Staff involved with agrichemicals are approved handlers and staff working by roads have Traffic Control training. Staff using chainsaws and scrub -bars have in-house training in the safe use of these items of equipment.
    A combination of all factors have each contributed to an on-going reduction in our accident statistics.
 


  • Earthquake remediation capacity.
    In response to request from clients and market need we have established two new work groups focusing on earthquake related repairs. One has an emphasis on the small scale civil work and the other has specialisation with gardens and grounds restoration. The civil team, lead by Construction Supervisor Richard Haar, has capabilities in areas like path reconstruction, driveway repairs, timber work and paving. We have leased a new 5te Kubota excavator ( see photograph). This productive machine, combined with our very skilled operator provides the 'mechanical grunt' to get work completed competitively and to a high standard. The second group is focussed on the soft landscaping work. Lead by Lyn Johnston, her team can implement your plans and/or provide advise to come up with a design to suit your requirements. Both Richard and Lyn can be contacted on their mobile numbers as listed on the Contacts page or through the company office. Details are on our Contacts page. We are registered to undertake earthquake related remedial work on private residence, at commercial premises and Christchurch City Council sites. We look forward to assisting you with your earthquake restoration work.


  • Our nursery, proudly living by its logo.
    " The Native Plant Specialists" , have embarked on the propagation of lesser known but never the less important plants in the quest to broaden the bio-diversity of our flora. With seeds collected from authenticated seed sources, we now have for sale small numbers of species such as Parsonsia spp, Raukaua spp, Streblus spp and Teucridium spp. These are in addition to the wide range of Eco-Sourced natives plants that are held in stock.
