As a Structural Engineer and Director of Build Green Ltd, following the 22 February 2011 earthquake in Christchurch and more than 10,000 subsequent earthquake events, we have been assisting business owners with retrieval of property mainly within the CBD red zone cordon from earthquake damaged buildings. We have been working with Steve Taylor and his team on a number of buildings. I have found Steve easy to deal with, efficient and accommodating.

Here are a few examples of projects we have worked on together:

• 190 Armagh Street – 6 Levels
• 185 Hereford Street – Te Waipounamu House – 8 Levels + Basement
• 3 Mt Pleasant Road – Mount Pleasant Community Centre
• 167 Manchester Street – Dick Smith Electronics – Ground Floor
• 263 High Street – Hallensteins Building – 5 Levels
• 119 Armagh Street – PWC Building
• 124 Oxford Terrace – The Tap Room
• 153 Hereford Street – Allan Pyatt House – 6 Levels

I would recommend Taylor Smith Transport /Christchurch Removals as they are a group of young and fit people that are keen to get the job done within tight timeframes.

Yours sincerely, Anne Mackenzie – MIPENZ CPEng(NZ) IntPE(NZ) APEC Engineer. Taylor Smith Transport / Christchurch Removals – Retrieval from CBD.
