Maycroft Construction is an employee-owned building firm that started in the Hutt Valley in 1954, when Eric Maycroft set up G.E. Maycroft Limited. His sons joined in 1977, and the business has since grown into a team owned by the people who work in it. It takes on everything from small jobs to large projects, from planning and building through to maintaining a property. Its specialist work is seismic strengthening, weathertightness and heritage restoration, which suits older buildings in the Wellington and Hutt region that need careful upgrading rather than a new build. The firm also works as an Early Contractor Involvement and Design and Build partner, so it can join a project at the design stage. It has a joinery factory, bought in 2018, which lets it make more precise custom work for its projects. Maycroft expanded into Palmerston North in 2015 and is a founding partner of the New Zealand Construction Alliance. Nearby in Petone, three other builders are listed within a kilometre, and the closest is Rubio's Pro Limited at 0.1 km, which carries a 5.0 rating from 12 reviews. You will find the firm at 6 Gear Street, Petone, in Lower Hutt.
