Client: Avanda Group
Project Value: $5.5 million
Location: Hobsonville Point, Auckland
Situated on Waka Moana Drive, this townhouse development comprises sixteen two-storey units with RibRaft foundations at ground level and timber floors for the upper levels. High noise control and fire resistance are provided by the GIB Intertenancy Barrier Systems separating the units. The external wall enclosure is a combination of corrugated iron roofing and wall cladding, brick veneer, and Abodo vertical timber cladding.
With early involvement in the project’s design buildability and cost engineering, AULFON Construction offered a competitive lump sum fixed-price, then utilised our construction experience to ensure successful project delivery within programme and budget.
Aulfon has built a strong reputation in New Zealand for delivering exceptional medium and large-scale residential developments. Our work appeals to clients with a keen eye for design and high-quality construction, all delivered by a dedicated professional team with skills and experience to complete projects in a cost-effective and timely manner.
We believe early contractor involvement is an important foundation on which to build. At the construction phase, we then have the backing of our sister company, Livefirm Construction, one of the largest subcontractors in the commercial development sector. Our ability to draw on these additional resources gives our clients the confidence of uninterrupted access to materials, labour, and skills critical to delivering their projects on schedule, meeting clients' expectations.
In particular, we are positioned to deliver multiple-unit residential developments, such as terraced housing and walk-up apartments, with project values of $10–50 million. Our strong technical knowledge in handling inter-tenancy walls, fire protection, and seismic control means we are ideally suited to delivering these types of projects.
Our consistent performance has bolstered our reputation with our clients, consultants, suppliers, and commercial banks. In addition to delivering projects for our clients, the reputation we have built and maintained means we are frequently called in to rescue other struggling projects with fast turnaround time, utilising our expertise and resources to get them over the line.
We recognise that our focus is on efficient project delivery, achieved by establishing cost-effective frameworks and building quality into everything we do. However, of all our values, we reckon that safety is always our top priority, critical to the successful completion of every construction project. Our team’s commitment to safety on site ensures we all get home safely each day.
