Commercial project delivery
Clear scope before site work.
For commercial construction and fit-outs, send the drawings, scope of work and target programme. Tell us who is managing the project, whether the building will remain occupied and what access is available. These details help us identify the carpentry work, trade interfaces and sequencing that need to be agreed before pricing.
GRIT’s work can include framing, internal linings, cladding and finishing. If your project involves several contractors, we can discuss where our scope starts and finishes and how it fits into the wider programme. Site access, deliveries, protection of existing finishes and handover requirements are part of that conversation.
For residential builds and additions, we review the proposed construction and the connections to any existing building. Share any available drawings and specifications so the materials, extent of work and unresolved details can be understood early.
Project experience
See our construction work.
At Te Arai Links, GRIT supported the cottage construction with frame-out, internal linings and natural cedar cladding. The project photos show the work across structural framing, interior construction and finished accommodation.
Our Herne Bay cedar reclad and interior refurbishment involved a curved building form and detailed exterior and interior carpentry. For architectural systems that need careful integration with a building, see our specialist installation work.
Your questions, answered.
Can GRIT work as part of a larger project team?
Yes. Our Te Arai Links experience includes delivering a defined carpentry scope within a larger development. Send the work package, drawings and programme so we can discuss responsibilities, coordination and availability.
What should I send for a commercial fit-out enquiry?
Send the site location, drawings or photos, the intended use of the space and your required timing. Include access restrictions and any work that must be completed around an occupied building. We can then discuss the information needed to define the scope.
Do I need final plans before contacting GRIT?
No. An early scope or concept is enough for an initial discussion. Detailed pricing may require drawings, specifications and a site review. We’ll explain what is still needed before agreeing the work.
Where do you take on construction work?
We welcome construction enquiries across Waikato, Auckland and the Bay of Plenty. Availability depends on the project scope, location and programme. Tell us where the work is and when you need it.
