Our story began 48 years ago in the rural service town of Waipukurau in Central Hawke’s Bay. Bruce Turfrey along with four staff began providing plumbing services to the region and developed a reputation for honest work, performed well.

Eldest son, Brad, joined the business as an apprentice, eventually taking over the reins in 2013 and beginning a process of expansion and investment in growth and infrastructure in a bid to meet the growing professional needs and expectations of the modern construction industry.

Brad's brother, Thomas, joined as Operations Manager in 2015 and the family are now supported by an experienced management team and growing staff of construction professionals who support the Company's values and vision for a modern, responsive and progressive construction sub-trades business.
