From excavation and earthmoving to drainage and sewerage systems, land development, site preparation, demolition, site clearance, retaining walls, landscaping, and much more, Maugers Contracting has Christchurch covered, no matter the size of the project. Maugers Contracting has its roots in the development of QEII Park for the 1974 Commonwealth Games. Warner Mauger started developing residential sections once QEII Park was complete, and his business grew into roading and drainage from there. Maugers Contracting now offers a comprehensive suite of services and has the expertise and resources to tackle any civil contracting project, as well as soil sales and greenwaste management. With state-of-the-art German machinery, Maugers Contracting ensures efficient wood and green waste management. “Our advanced equipment allows us to transform your waste into smaller, cleaner chips that are perfect for garden mulch and boiler fuel, and sustainable solutions for landscaping needs,” says Maugers Contracting admin manager and internal backbone Lea Pomeroy. “In addition, our machinery is equipped to effectively screen unwanted debris from soil, delivering high-quality soil ideal for gardens and top dressing lawns.” Maugers Contracting has been chipping wood for the past 10 years and this part of the business is now rapidly expanding as industrial businesses around Christchurch make the switch from coal to wood-fired boilers. “It’s a small percentage of our business but it’s something that is starting to grow as everyone becomes more interested in wood fuel,” Lea says. “Aged care facility Nazereth House and K&L Nurseries have switched from coal to woodfired boilers and we keep the supply of burner fuel up to them. “We have a camera on the bins at Nazereth House and we can see when it’s time to top up their supply.” With a dedicated team of 40 skilled and hardworking professionals, Maugers Contracting has many long-standing staff members who bring up to 60 years of experience to the job. Maugers Contracting staff boast an average tenure of five to 25 years. Subdivision development is still very active in Christchurch despite the recession, with plenty of projects already underway. Maugers Contracting is completing multiple projects in Halswell, Lincoln, and also Casebrook, where a long-standing partnership with Enterprise Homes has Maugers Contracting working on a 17-lot subdivision called Kākāpō Lane in Edron Place, Casebrook. Lea say s that developers enjoy seamless and expert subdivision contracting with Maugers Contracting.
