| 37 Robinson Asphalts The Whangārei-based company has grown into one of Northland’s most versatile civil and landscape contractors, serving residential, commercial and government clients. REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT BUILDING FOUNDATIONS FOR SUCCESS CONCRETE NEEDS COVERED Rock Solid Concrete delivers concrete and civil services for residential and commercial projects throughout Northland. Established in Whangārei in 2020, the business has grown into a team of about 14 people, working on projects ranging from residential developments to large civil contracts. Rock Solid Concrete employs about 14 staff and has a solid programme of subdivision and civil work underway. Alongside the Springs Flat roundabout project, several new subdivision developments are scheduled to begin during 2026, providing a healthy workload for the team. Consistently delivering reliable workmanship has helped the business secure repeat work and develop long-term relationships with clients and fellow contractors. “Our goal has always been to grow, and I feel like we've done a really good job at that. We've created really good relationships with a lot of the businesses in this town, and our work speaks for itself.” The company's people are central to its success. By supporting and valuing its staff, Rock Solid Concrete has developed a team that shares the same expectations for every project, whether it's a residential driveway or a major civil contract. “I think we've got an amazing team. We've built great connections, and we prioritise and appreciate our team.” “We are concrete and curbing specialists, and we do a significant amount of that throughout Northland, right up to Kaitaia,” director Heather Smith says. Part of the company's success has been its close working relationship with Robinson Asphalts. The businesses have collaborated on a number of civil projects, including the Marsden City development at Ruakākā, one of Northland's largest mixed-use developments. Rock Solid Concrete completed the kerbing for the subdivision while Robinson Asphalts led the wider civil works. I think it's the quality of work. We both have the same standard of quality that we want, and we want people to see that in our businesses, so that's where we align.” Heather says partnerships like these areespecially valuable in Northland's close-knit construction industry, where reputation and word-of-mouth are vital. Rock Solid Concrete was established by Heather and Fred after deciding to turn Fred's extensive concreting experience into a business of their own. Confident in his skills and driven by his pride in workmanship, the couple took the opportunity to build a company around the standards they believed in. “Fred has a lot of experience behind him. He's good at what he does and he takes pride in his work, so we thought if you're doing it for somebody else, we may as well do it for ourselves.” Rock Solid Civil Northland provides exceptional civil construction & concrete solutions.
