We deliver quality construction

I’ve worked with Aaron for 15 years across both Kiwi Property and now Tailor. At Kiwi, he and his team handled all tenancy reconfigurations, defits, and fitouts across the Auckland portfolio, managing programmes, costs, quality, and H&S while operating within strict quiet‑enjoyment requirements in live centres. His attention to detail, fair pricing, and ability to resolve issues quickly made him exceptional to work with. Since moving to Tailor, I’ve continued to use Aaron across our landlord and retail brand clients, and regardless of scope or location, his service quality has remained consistently high.
