38 | JLC Construction T T Virginia Wright High-scoring project scoops top award REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT Established in 2020 by managing director Joshua Lee, JLC Construction was recently awarded Gold at the New Zealand Commercial Project Awards in the Industrial division for its bespoke industrial build at 63 Hynds Drive, Rolleston. Following several years working in tier 1 construction, Joshua’s vision for his new business was clear: to deliver high-quality, reliable construction outcomes through a company that values relationships, team culture, and doing things the right way. Operating primarily in the commercial and industrial sectors, the company has grown steadily, with work ranging from bespoke warehouse and office developments to strengthening and fit-out of existing buildings and multi-unit developments. They also work on education- and community-sector projects, but whatever the project, Joshua and his team take pride in their consistent delivery of end-to-end construction solutions arrived at through clear communication and strong client relationships. “We’re involved from feasibility and early planning right through to handover, ensuring quality and consistency at every stage,” says Joshua, believing their focus on people lies at the heart of their success. “We’re solutions-driven, hands-on, and proactive in managing every aspect of our projects. Our ability to think ahead, maintain clear communication, and adapt quickly is something our clients value highly. “Our team is our greatest asset. The majority of them have been with the company for many years, which I attribute to our culture of mutual respect, teamwork, and investment in sraff development. We work hard, but we also take the time to celebrate our wins together.” The JLC Construction team are experts in structural strengthening, delivering complex upgrades to meet seismic compliance and ensure long-term performance. They are expanding their commercial and industrial design-and-build services, offering clients an end-to-end solution tailored to their specific operational needs. Their maintenance division provides body corporates with a reliable, one-stop solution for ongoing building maintenance and compliance. “We see our role as offering clarity, consistency, and proactive project management across a range of construction, which highlight our versatility,” says general manager Tammy Gordon. Built for Utilities Infrastructure New Zealand Ltd, the 63 Hynds Drive project remains a key example of the high-quality work JLC Construction delivers in the commercial and industrial space. The project was awarded an outstanding overall score of 90.5 out of 100, assessed across key criteria including design, contract management, procurement, construction delivery, and project management. The Gold Award represents the highest level of construction excellence for this 450sqm warehouse and 298sqm office space with a high-end interior, all of which combines functionality with industrial elegance. Large roller doors for the warehouse, ensuring efficient logistics and storage, are complemented by a high-quality interior fitout, with features like LMA Timber finishes, polished concrete floors, and bespoke wall features. “This achievement is a testament to the skill, commitment, and collaboration of everyone involved. We would like to acknowledge our valued project partners: LMS Drafting and Design, Prostruct Engineering, and Mooi Design; as well as the many suppliers and subcontractors whose expertise and dedication played a vital role in the successful delivery of this award-winning project,” says Tammy. Whether the project is commercial, industrial, educational or community, JLC Construction is well positioned to offer construction services from turnkey commercial premises to building maintenance, with their customary high standard of delivery, reliability, and client-focused approach.
