Heritage with heart
Grand old buildings need lots of love. St Paul’s Church is the longest established church in Auckland and currently undergoing seismic re-strengthening. Kwanto was asked to estimate the cost of the long-term maintenance and improvement programme. To get funding grants the church needed accurate pricing for the works early on. Accurate pricing relies on specialist knowledge and experience in heritage construction. Having access to both meant we could pull the figures together quickly for our client.
Kwanto has expertise in costing heritage projects and over the years we have worked on several iconic buildings including the Auckland War Memorial Museum, Civic Theatre and the Auckland Town Hall. The appeal of working on heritage projects is being part of a team who care about the longevity of a building and how it contributes to the history of a place.
We’re quantity surveyors and project managers who work collaboratively with the project team. We tailor our approach to meet the unique needs of our clients – expertly.
