JD Builders: Totara School Alexia Anderson BUILDING Jeffrey Dennison Builders’ expertise is benefiting the next generation. The Otago based company has been appointed by the Ministry of Education to take on a wide range of tasks across the sector from upgrading, removing, transporting and reassembling classrooms. Its latest project has seen the addition of a new teaching space at Totara School, just five minutes south of the historic Victorian town of Oamaru. Jeffrey Dennison Builders media liaison said while the project only consisted of four week’s physical work, it took 12 weeks to complete the build. This was, in part, due to the need to wait on amended building plans after the team came across undocumented services when building the foundations. We had to remove a glass wall to integrate the new Portacom into an existing classroomwith a new deck to bridge the space, they said. The job is now complete, proving the team’s ability to navigate their way through the challenges the building industry can be faced with. JD Builders has also recently reassembled two Portacom classrooms at East Otago High School and a renovation at Duntroon School. Jeffrey Dennison Builders said more quotes for other school projects were also in the pipeline, with the education sector making up about 40 per cent of the company’s workload, while the remainder is dedicated to residential and agricultural projects. “Moving forward, we are continuing new home construction as well, and are happy to announce that Jeffrey Dennison Builders have been appointed by Clever Living Homes as Licensed Building Practitioners to build new homes in our region”, director Jeff Dennison says. “They’re stylish and modern with a size and design to suit our clients.” Clever Living Homes is a smart, economical way to build your new home. “They’re stylish and modern with a size and design to suit our clients”, he continued.
