120 | No hassles with Reubin’s crew Renew Construction specialises in renovations, new builds, maintenance, concrete and decks. Renew Construction T T Lindy Andrews “We are big on sustainability and are always looking at our material selection, including sustainable products. Timber is highly sustainable and there are now some external cladding timber products that come with 50-year guarantees.” BUILDING Reubin Leask of Renew Construction laughs when he looks back just over two years from when he founded his Hamilton-based company. “I started right in the middle of a downturn, which was fantastic,” he says wryly. Reubin need not have worried – Renew Construction’s first year was an outstanding success. “It was really good. In the first year we undertook maintenance on a number of schools around the Waikato.” His brother, Duncan Leask, who owns Optiplumb Limited, introduced him to international company Programmed Facilities Management NZ. A joint preliminary inspection was executed, which identified a range of building defects that needed to be addressed before the buildings could be painted. Renew Construction stepped up to the challenge, ultimately making repairs to 15 schools. Building a reputation for excellence was everything. For Reubin’s fledgling business, it was essential that he ran a tight ship across all the company’s projects. With 19 years in the construction industry behind him, including seven years as a quantity surveyor, Reubin knew the importance of delivering on time and on budget. “We stick to timeframes and budgets, and we will be there when we say we will. We haven’t run over deadline yet.” Renew Construction specialises in renovations, new builds, maintenance, concrete and decks. Whatever the project, Reubin and his team – licensed building practitioners and members of the New Zealand Certified Builders Association – aim to deliver a meticulously crafted home or renovation “without the headaches”. Clear client/builder communications – especially gaining an early understanding of a client’s dreams, aspirations and expectations – top the list from day one. “For us it’s all about preconstruction communication,” Reubin says. Balancing budgets and affordability with delivering the home of someone’s dreams requires compromise on both sides. That’s where Renew Construction’ s expertise comes to the fore. If budget is an issue, value engineering, which is exploring alternative building materials and finishes without cutting corners on workmanship, allows clients to enjoy contemporary style at a price they can afford without compromising on quality, good looks or durability. “We have a reputation to uphold,” Reubin emphasises. “That means we deliver healthy homes, quality workmanship, and take accountability from the start. We also do a lot of bathroom renovations and industrial maintenance.” Reubin and his team are on a path of continual improvement, which includes advancing their knowledge of sustainable materials and eco-friendly building practices. “We are big on sustainability and are always looking at our material selection, including sustainable products. Timber is highly sustainable and there are now some external cladding timber products that come with 50year guarantees.” The company’s willingness to go the extra mile on sustainability extends to its sites. As part of its waste management strategy there is not a waste skip to be found. “ Everything is sorted by hand, and we recycle as much as possible.” With a key client list including Fonterra’s Waitoa Dairy Factory, where Reubin and his team are kept busy with industrial maintenance, Renew Construction’s future is bright. “If we can’t fix it, we know who can,” says Reubin. your guarantee of excellence Proud to be supporting Renew Construction Ltd Professional floor and wall tiling services in Hamilton and Waikato.
