“We are so grateful to Naylor Love for taking on our projects as it became evident that the new earthquake resistant technology we had chosen i.e. LVL PRESS LAM was going to require skill and patience. Also the dental surgery was a complex fit out in a small physical area.

The overall end result is superb. Visitors and patients are commenting on the “lovely feel” and look of the building…

Thank you for guiding us through what has been for us, an extraordinary journey and we know the success of our building has been through the professionalism and expertise of Naylor Love.”

“Naylor Love throughout the contracts considered the implications on the day to day running of the school and kept any interruptions to the barest of minimums. Both their own staff and subcontractors were courteous and obliging at all times and have been a pleasure to work with. The work place was always kept tidy and safety was a major consideration at all times. We would have no hesitation in recommending Naylor Love to any prospective client.”

“Naylor Love are simply one of the best contractors I have ever worked with in the world. Their attitude and willingness to help in all areas of this challenging project was commendable.”

“The Trust’s decision to award the construction contract to Naylor Love paid dividends from the outset. Suppliers and sub-contractors were quick to tell us we had selected a company they would be enthusiastic about working with, and within just a matter of weeks we had benefitted from a robust  value engineering process across all elements of the project that helped reduce the overall project cost…

It needs to be stated that once on site the relationship moved to yet another level. Although we had our own project manager to act as client representative, trustees felt involved at all stages of the project through excellent communication and consultation. We are on record as saying never a cross word has been spoken in 2 years of dealings.

The finished building is simply outstanding. The attention to detail and quality has surpassed everyone’s expectations, even though we had high expectations to begin with.”

“The Naylor Love team have been a professional, dedicated and hard working team to have on site. Health and Safety is a priority. Management understand and work around the complexities that are part of working in the education sector.

The Naylor Love team communicated regularly and ensured the school’s perspective was included in planning. Deadlines were met even if it involved working through weekends. Work is of a high quality.”

“From the commencement of the project the Naylor Love team involved the Ravensdown representatives in a collaborative relationship, meeting for regular updates, taking the time to explain to laypeople what they were doing and always going above expectations to ensure that our needs were listened to and met. Any issues were highlighted early with resolution plans always in place, any external frustrations during the process were managed professionally and where approvals were required, these were appropriately gathered. Project plans were set, changes as required and the key goals were always front of mind.

I now proudly work in a building which as met all our expectations and has provided Ravensdown with a well-designed, professionally build showcase to ensure we are appropriately represented to our shareholders and the communities we serve.”

“Naylor Love Ltd is known to CoveKinloch through various multi unit recladding projects under our administration. We have found Naylor Love Ltd to be a very reputable company with excellent management skills and delivery of service and project. Further to this we have received high praise from our clients on Naylor Love’s performance and professional manner in consideration to individual owners.”

“We have always found Naylor Love completely honest, reliable and totally focused on a positive outcome for their client. The quality of construction and added preconstruction input they have provided has had significant impact on delivering the high standard of building so obvious in our centre. Their willingness to discuss any aspect of a project at any time to ensure our requirement are satisfied is quite exceptional.

In this regard, at all times we find their local manager, foremen and staff to be knowledgeable, helpful and courteous. Furthermore, the ability to also deal direct with the directors and owners of the business further underwrites their reputation as one of New Zealand’s outstanding national construction companies.”

“From the very onset of Naylor Love winning the building tender at the beginning of 2009, the school has benefited from their expertise, craftsmanship, dedication and willingness to go the extra mile…Their advice and support services have been amazing. No issue, problem or educational design perspective has been too difficult to solve or work through…They always listened to the school’s needs and worked through a thorough process on how they could achieve this for us. A lot of times they have gone well beyond the call of duty to ensure that the school could achieve their vision…

All members of the Naylor Love team, from office administration, design, project coordinator, foreman and builders have worked tirelessly together to ensure that the school was built on time, within budget and that the dreams of the Board, staff and students were well and truly met. Their professionalism and collaboration and project coordination with the many trades that have been involved in this project has been amazing. We cannot rate them highly enough.”

“From the outset your team have displayed a sense of ownership of the project from the detailed design through to the completion of the construction. You willingly changed your construction programme to fit in with the Ministry’s requirement for a must open date of Term 1 of this year and have continued with subsequent construction stages within a very tight construction period. Your total team from architect, engineers and construction crews have displayed a sense of pride in the school…This team work has extended to working with the Establishment Board of Trustees and senior management in a positive way that has again been to the benefit of the school.”
