Image Construction

OUR SERVICES

Our services are tailored for the needs of every client, guaranteeing satisfaction throughout each phase of the construction life cycle: design, construction and after sales.

We offer a wide range of build services in Christchurch and Canterbury and our site staff are experienced in all facets of construction - from concrete work to interior finishing. During the last 20+ years, we have worked hard to establish our reputation as a professional and highly competent contractor.

Image leads the field by offering clients quality workmanship in every building project, from architecturally-designed homes to large scale commercial refurbishments. Follow the links below to find out more about our service:

Architectural

Our staff are highly experienced in working closely with architects and design consultants, not only in following plans, drawings and instructions clearly, but also developing close working relationships, resulting in the completion of high quality buildings that satisfy the expectations of both architect and client.

Building relationships with the creative team behind an architecturally-designed project, as well as with the subcontractors who make it a reality, is key to making any build successful. The experience and expertise of our Site Manager and Project Manager enables them to:

• Work with (and where necessary manage) a wide-range of personalities
• Build and schedule works to specific plans, requirements and constraints
• Create excellent channels of communication between all parties
• Complete upgrades or building work with a minimum of disruption to clients
• Deliver on budget and within allocated timeframes

Interiors

A well-designed and professionally completed interior fit-out or refurbishment brings a whole new lease of life to any building, be it an office, retail, educational or commercial space. Image specialises in delivering high quality fit-outs and refurbishments for interiors of all sizes. Here at Image, we have the experience, skills and resources necessary to meet critical deadlines and work hard with clients to ensure all aspects of the transition process is seamless.

Commercial

Getting businesses in Christchurch on track with new buildings, repairs or maintenance work has been one of our major strengths as a company. We assist our commercial clients by completing commissions and projects of all sizes quickly, to schedule and to budget, with the minimum of disruption to their day-to-day business activities.

Some of the commercial projects we have completed include:

• Events Centre

Effective project management is one of the foundations underlying every successful building project. This is why we, as Master Builders, aim to use the best project management strategy possible in the Christchurch building industry to take care of our builds, our clients and our trades. We take pride in offering project management services professionally and thoroughly by:

• Overseeing all our sub-trades included in our quotation

• Ensuring completion in a timely manner with a critical path programme for all projects
• Weekly project meetings with the design consultant and client

Design and Build

Working with clients who share our passion for innovation and exceptional quality in any type of project - be that commercial or residential - through our Design and Build service, we will oversee and deliver on all facets of the construction process.

• We offer the entire build solution - from concept to delivery of the completed build. The design, documentation and construction of your build.
• We have the expertise and experience to deliver any project from an initial exchange of ideas, to engaging the most appropriate design consultants

We manage the project through our comprehensive process management which covers quality, finance, health and safety, risk, communication and regular reporting.

Environmental, Health and Safety

We are committed to providing everyone who works and visits our workplaces with a safe environment.

Protection of the public is also of the highest consideration. Environmental, Health and Safety management is recognised as the most important factor across all our activities. We consider it a moral obligation to provide sound preventive measures in everything we do.

Every day we continue to go beyond best practice in the construction industry to assure the wellbeing of our employees, subcontractors, associated stakeholders and the community.

We undergo regular audits to ensure compliance with these important standards, as we know that our pre-qualifications and accreditations create safe and positive workspaces.

Quality Management

Getting it right the first time, every time is what we strive for at Image. This extends from our management team to our employees and our subcontractors.

Our approach has resulted in an unparalleled reputation for delivering quality project outcomes as well as a long list of industry awards and long-term clients. Although we are justifiably proud of this past track record, we continue to look to the future.

Image has a number of systems and procedures in place, which maximise quality management outcomes. Our Quality Management System is adopted on all of our projects. Our approach places a high level of responsibility on teams to deliver projects to the required quality benchmarks. Their close collaboration and detailed consultation with subcontractors, consultants and clients ensures we achieve outcomes that benefit everyone involved.

With each new project we continue to refine our systems and to explore innovative solutions. This is how Image is able to deliver to the highest possible standards every time.

Independent Environmental, Health & Safety Consultants

We engage independent Environmental and Health and Safety consultants to assist in site specific planning, random site audits and reporting on our companies systems and procedures to ensure best practice in our day to day operations and to ensure we meet all compliance requirements.
