About Hamilton Concrete Contractors

Ten years in one region teaches you where the trouble sits. The new subdivisions on the city fringe behave nothing like the older established streets, and the western side of Hamilton behaves differently again. We have worked across all of it, on brand new builds and on houses well over a century old.

Experience in this trade mostly shows up as problems that never happen. Access measured before the truck was booked. A job that finished on the day we promised, because we sorted the sequence before anyone picked up a shovel.

The people who prepare your site are the people who finish it. Your job never gets handed to a second gang halfway through, and you never have to explain it twice.

Concrete goes wrong at the handovers. One crew leaves before the next stage starts, another arrives to find the groundwork already set the wrong way, and nobody is carrying the job end to end. On our sites there is one number to ring and one crew answerable for how the surface performs in five years.

Some of the best work we have done is work we talked someone out of. If your existing concrete can be repaired, we tell you at the visit, and we tell you knowing it costs us the job.

Everything goes to you in writing before anything starts. You know the scope before you commit, and there is nothing to sort out once the trucks have gone.

The job is not over when the concrete goes down. We clear up, cart the waste away and walk the finished work with you before we leave, so anything you are unhappy with gets said while we are still standing there.

Site tidiness sounds like a small thing right up until you have had a trade leave your property in a state.
