Memberships

Many contractors claim to understand the standards required for skilled repairs to important heritage buildings, yet few can deliver the standard required. Buildings with fundamental weather tightness failures are a challenge for the most experienced contractors, due to the demands of the current Building Code, and the requirement for a consistently high standard of work. With respect to the above projects, Legacy Construction have demonstrated their capabilities in both of these difficult areas of work.

Legacy have routinely proven themselves to deliver on time and to a high quality and are a pleasure to work with. We would have no hesitation in recommending their services to others.

“These premises were designed to reflect values and place of Te Taitokerau. From the outset Legacy took the time to understand what our values were on this project. The result was work practises that aligned with the tikanga of the Whangārei Māori Land Court. Legacy bought a kaupapa that is evident in the mauri of the premises”.
