Projects of Interest

Prior to 2010 we retrofitted the majority of the floors in the Canterbury Centre for Westpac. The Canterbury Centre was one of the larger buildings in Christchurch and was the South Island head office of Westpac.

Westpac employed approximately 400 people throughout the building. Our work involved the progressive removal of the existing offices and the construction of new offices to a very high specification to compliment Westpac’s position in the banking market and image.

Following the September 2010 earthquake we were in the process of repairing the 13 storey structure until such time as the February 2011 earthquake damaged the building beyond repair.

Following the February 2011 earthquake we were engaged by Westpac to relocate their staff to 2 large buildings in Show Place. This involved the office fitout of 2 large modern buildings to accommodate the majority of their existing staff.

Unfortunately the Canterbury Centre has now been demolished.

During the period between 2009 and 2011, office fitout works were carried out on the majority of the floors. The combined value of the office fitout works for Westpac was approximately $6.0 million + GST.

Our Principal Project Manager for the Westpac office projects was Philip George.
