The Lakeside Soldiers Memorial Hall was rebuilt in 2018 following a long project planning and fundraising process. Built to replace the original building which was damaged in the Canterbury earthquakes of 2010 and 2011, the new hall is oriented northwest towards Harts Creek and remarkable vista of the Southern Alps across the Cantabrian plains.
Lakeside Soldiers Memorial Hall is one of the 7 Winners of 2019 Canterbury Architecture Award – Public Architecture.
The highlight of this project was seeing it all come together. Working with the architect and installers making sure all the ribs were lined up. There was a lot of technical setting out work on this job, especially with the windows as they were manufactured to suit the width of one tray. Installing and flashing the tray was challenging, but as always it came together.
In 2008 a couple of guys from Taranaki decided to start a Roofing business and thus Central Roofing Company was born.
Starting off with a few people on wages, who we are happy to say are still with us and getting in Fiona to handle the books, we started out just doing Re-Roofs. Not too long after, we took over the Gerard distributorship for Gerard Tiles and got to work with some local builders to provide Tiles for new Roofs.
In 2012 the regulations changed, and it was made compulsory to include Scaffold when Roofing, so we decided to have our own Scaffold department to supply and install Scaffold on our jobs.
With steady growth throughout the years and recently, in 2018 we moved into our new premises at 9 Craig Place, Waiwhakaiho, New Plymouth.
Today at Central Roofing Company we stand for quality and service within the Roofing industry. Working with our trusted partners to provide you with the best option, designed to suit your style and budget from Scaffold to finish.
