96 | BUILDING Jeffrey Dennison Builders T T Karen Phelps ‘We under promise and over deliver’ Totara Primary School – setout of the piles for the new-learning space. For Palmerston based building company Jeffrey Dennison Builders every project is approached individually. It’s a philosophy that underscores the company’s methodology and has resulted in some unique points of difference, says company owner Jeffrey Dennison. A commitment to quality, transparency and personalised service coupled with a collaborative approach with clients, consultants, occupants, supply chains, and authorities, sees a tailored team formed for every project. With over-promising and under-delivering common issues in the building industry, JD Builders takes the opposite view: “At JD Builders we under promise and over deliver,” explains Jeffrey. “Some contractors will hide variations until later in the job and not provide true transparency in their quotes making it difficult for the customer to budget or know what they are truly getting. At JD Builders we have quantity surveyors and estimators, which provide clarity and are dedicated to finding the best solutions and suppliers. From the very start we embrace transparent communication as a cornerstone of our interactions. By providing open and honest communication with our clients we establish strong, trusting relationships.” Flexibility and adaptability are also hallmarks of JD Builders. It matches its services to the client’s requirements and can also provide a concept-to-completion service. Being a smaller company allows JD Builders to accommodate client needs swiftly, making changes as required at any point of the project. Jeffrey says the company’s team boasts a wide-ranging skill set enabling effective strategic and methodical problem solving. By staying abreast of the latest industry technology, regulations and changes JD Builders also seeks to integrate these advancements seamlessly into projects where appropriate. “JD Builders enjoys working with people and thrives on resolving any challenge on projects as we think outside the square and go the extra mile for all of our clients. We are proactive, forthcoming, and supportive,” says Jeffrey. “We bring the resources of our team to the table to assist our clients in achieving a cost-effective build to the highest standard.” However it’s the personalised service that truly solidifies JD Builders’ unique identity, he says. Clients engage directly with the owner of the business ensuring their needs are understood and addressed. This is combined with a firm focus on quality and backed by the right systems to support a seamless build experience. Fixed-price contracts are offered giving further security. “Our commitment to delivering workmanship of the highest calibre extends beyond the physical build and is part of every interaction, ensuring clients feel valued and heard throughout the process,” he says. Established in 2016 JD Builders specialises in residential and commercial projects and works throughout the Otago region. One of the most noteworthy recent projects is the renovation of East Otago High School. The company secured this significant project through a Ministry of Education tender process, embarking on an extensive transformation of two blocks encompassing 16 classrooms. Jeffrey says the project involved a multifaceted approach, spanning future proofing the exterior by the addition of weatherboards, replacing the windows on one block with double-glazed aluminium joinery, replacing the trusses and a re-roof along with exterior alterations. Interior work includes replacing ceiling panels and removing skylights. The classrooms have been weather proofed by a full temporary canopy to streamline the work and eliminate weather delays. Jeffrey says it’s just one example of the planning, personalised service and attention to detail JD Builders delivers on all projects, which has secured it a trusted reputation in the region. “We have a team that truly cares about customer service and the finish of a job and this translates to high-quality work, great project outcomes and highly satisfied customers.” www.aoteaelectric.co.nz 4 Trent Street Oamaru | 03 434 8791 “Aotea is proud to be associated with Jeff Dennison Builders” ELECTRIC • COMMUNICATIONS • AIR CONDITIONING • FIRE PLACEMAKERS DUNEDIN & MOSGIEL PLACEMAKERSDUNEDIN & MOSGIEL 50 BURNS ST & 34 CARNCROSS ST (03) 466 4617 PROUDLY SUPPORTING JEFF DENNISON BUILDERS contractorsv of choice Painters & Decorators JAMES WREN & CO LTD Proud to work with Jeff Dennison Builders 50 Carroll Street | PH: 03 477 9384 | www.wrens.co.nz EST 1896 • Painting, Decorating • ProgrammedMaintenance • Tiling • Textured Coating • Solid Plastering • Specialist Coating
