Founded in 1975, Sansom started as a small operation focused on waterproofing solutions in Auckland. Over the decades, the business has grown into a nationwide provider of specialist services, trusted by leading contractors, developers, and property owners for some of the country’s most challenging and high-profile projects. Director James Benington says reaching the 50-year milestone is a proud moment for the Sansom team, and a chance to reflect on the foundations of the company’s success. “Longevity in our industry doesn’t happen by accident,” James says. “It’s a direct result of the technical expertise we’ve developed, the relationships we’ve built, and our commitment to delivering quality solutions every time. “We’re incredibly proud of what the business has achieved since 1975, and we’re excited about what’s ahead.” From its beginnings in basement and roof waterproofing, Sansom has steadily expanded its capabilities to meet the evolving needs of New Zealand’s construction and maintenance sectors. Today, the company offers a comprehensive range of specialist services, including waterproofing for new builds, remedial engineering for existing structures, seismic strengthening, leak investigation, and repairs. Sansom’s team of engineers and technicians works across a diverse portfolio, delivering tailored solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial projects. Their expertise is sought after for complex environments where failure is not an option, including hospitals, schools, infrastructure, and multi-storey developments. “We’ve built a reputation for taking on the jobs others won’t touch,” James says.
