For Kiwi Excavations owner, Matt Jordan, quite often the most successful projects start with understanding the problem – not the machinery needed to solve it. Since it was established, the locally owned business has earned a reputation throughout the Nelson-Tasman region for practical earthworks, retaining walls, drainage solutions, foundations, landscaping and construction services. Whether it’s preparing a section for a new home, replacing a retaining wall, improving drainage, or transforming a backyard, every project is approached with the same commitment to quality workmanship and practical solutions. “Our clients usually come to us with a problem rather than a plan,” Matt says. “Our job is to understand what they’re trying to achieve and develop the best solution for their property.” That philosophy has seen the business continue to grow, with this winter proving to be one of its busiest. “We’re just as happy helping someone with a small landscaping project or driveway as we are completing a more complex retaining wall,” Matt says. “Every project is important, because every client is trusting us with their property.” Matt says many of today’s projects involve far more than simply moving earth. “Retaining walls and drainage often go hand in hand,” he says. “If water isn’t managed properly, it can create ongoing problems for slopes, driveways, and even building foundations. “We take the time to understand what’s causing the issue before recommending the best long-term solution.” Whether it’s repairing stormwater issues, improving site drainage, stabilising slopes or constructing retaining walls, Kiwi Excavations focuses on practical outcomes that protect properties and stand the test of time. Another strength of the business is its ability to tackle sites where access is restricted. By combining compact excavators, agile tip trucks and purpose-built equipment with experienced operators, Kiwi Excavations can safely and efficiently work on steep sections, narrow driveways, and confined residential properties, where larger machinery often isn’t suitable. This flexibility allows the team to complete projects with minimal disruption, while maintaining the high standard of workmanship clients have come to expect. Those who have worked with Matt quickly learn he has an exceptional eye for detail and insists on doing the job properly the first time. That meticulous approach has become part of Kiwi Excavations’ culture, and is one of the reasons clients continue to recommend the business and return for future projects. The company’s commitment to the community was particularly evident following the Tasman flood events, when Kiwi Excavations volunteered machinery, trucks and manpower to help restore access, clear debris, and assist affected families, businesses and neighbouring communities during their recovery. “When something like that happens, local businesses have a responsibility to help where they can,” Matt says. “We live here, too, and supporting our community through difficult times is simply the right thing to do.” Looking ahead, Matt says Kiwi Excavations isn’t chasing rapid expansion. “We’re not interested in being the biggest,” he says. “We’re interested in being the company people trust to get the job done properly.”
