We recently completed construction of two 4000sqm world-class bulk stores at Marsden Point. The project was designed and built in just 32 weeks – and the Trigg team were able to get the client in to start their fit-out three weeks ahead of schedule.
Marsden Point based commercial construction company Trigg is not a builder but rather a construction partner, says director Darrell Trigg.
“We aim to assist clients from the start of their project to the finish. Early contractor involvement and working with the team from day one speeds up the project, solves problems early and means we can all work together from the outset for the best end result.
Work on the Hundertwasser Art Centre with Wairau Māori Art Gallery is well underway, and it’s exciting to see the walls go up on one of New Zealand’s most challenging and complex commercial builds. Trigg Construction is the main contractor for the project, and MD Darrell Trigg says, “It’s an amazing thing to be part of as everything is bespoke, no two details are allowed to be the same, and every window in the building is a different shape and size, but I’m proud to say that the Trigg team are once again proving up to the challenge”.
Darrell and Marlene are huge supporters of a whole range of community causes and organisations, but stair climbing is one that’s a family affair. Marlene regularly completes Stadium Stomps and Darrell, Chief Fire Officer of the Ruakaka Volunteer Fire Brigade, participates in Firefighter Stair Climbs.
We recently welcomed Terence Elliot to the Trigg Construction team. Terence has escaped big city Auckland to come to beautiful Northland, joining us as a Contract/Project Manager
One of the most unusual and technically demanding buildings ever to be constructed in this country is taking shape, as whangarei’s hundertwasser art centre reaches the halfway stage of its two-year build.
I recently spent some time with a builder who has a staff of six and is doing some pretty cool projects.
He contacted me to have a chat about business and, in particular, how to grow his business in a controlled way.
It was a great opportunity to reflect on the lessons I had learned in our own business journey to date, and how we dealt with some of them.
As the pace of life Is ever increasing and the internet allows our clients to be more educated about what they want in their new home or commercial building, the demands on our time increase exponentially.
I recently had a session with my business coach and found it to be extremely rewarding.
The business coach helps to bring me back to focusing on the business, not just on working in it and putting out fires and igniting others!
There is a lot of information at the moment highlighting the issue of mental health and well-being in many industries but, in particular, the construction sector.
The recent scoping study report by BRANZ on mental health in the construction industry highlighted the fact that “6.9% of all employed male suicides in New Zealand are committed by members from the construction industry workforce”, the highest of any industry in this country.
