Common Questions from Developers
Answers to frequently asked questions about working with Kennedy Contracting & AreaTech on commercial projects.
What's your capacity for multi-unit developments?
Between Kennedy Contracting and AreaTech, we have multiple crews and equipment to handle large-scale developments. Our combined capacity means we're not juggling your project with residential work—we dedicate crews to commercial timelines.
How does pricing work for volume projects?
Volume pricing is available for multi-unit developments. We provide itemised quotes with per-unit pricing so you can accurately forecast costs. Our established supplier relationships mean we pass savings directly to you. The more units in scope, the better the rates we can offer while maintaining quality standards.
Can you match specific specifications from architects or designers?
Absolutely. We work with detailed specifications regularly and can source materials to match architect requirements exactly. If you have drawings or material schedules, we'll quote precisely to spec. We can also provide value engineering suggestions if there are cost-effective alternatives that meet design intent.
What areas do you service?
We cover all of Christchurch and wider Canterbury region. From Kaiapoi to Rolleston, and everywhere in between. For larger projects outside this area, we can discuss mobilisation—we've completed work throughout Canterbury when project scale justifies it.
How quickly can you provide quotes?
For standard scope (fencing, gates, decks, landscaping), we typically provide detailed quotes within 2-3 business days. For larger or more complex developments, allow up to a week.
Do you handle consenting and compliance?
Yes. We're familiar with Christchurch City Council requirements and can handle consent applications for retaining walls, earthworks, and structural elements. We also coordinate engineering certification when required and ensure all work meets Building Code standards.
