Who We Are

Higgs Construction Ltd has been selected for a number of significant projects due to our consistent ability to deliver projects in our region on time and to the highest level of finish.

Higgs Construction Ltd is a long standing local company with our head office and staff based in and around Christchurch.

We have a great level of support from our subcontractors whom take pride and preference in working with us. We pride ourselves on our delivery and the level of quality we achieve.

We have a permanent staff of 91 personnel consisting of the directors, administration staff, quantity surveyors, contracts managers, project managers, foremen carpenters, carpenters, apprentice carpenters, labourers and crane/truck drivers.
