What Our Clients Have to Say
“In January of 2023 Auckland suffered a day of record rainfall followed by Cyclone Gabriel. During the rainfall our pole house, on a steeply sloping section, was damaged. Some poles moved, causing doors to jam and cracks to appear in Gib Board walls.
We were left with a 10 metre long crack in the earth behind (inside the house profile) the bottom row of poles. Council inspectors attended and our house was yellow stickered, meaning we could live in the house but not use some areas.
On recommendation we contacted Stewart Hobbs of ProConsult. Stewart did a site inspection and subsequently produced a plan of action to rectify the damage and to safely future proof the house. Stewart’s recommendation was to replace all four of the bottom poles. We had nine months of dialogue with our insurance company and EQC and I have to say that if I had not been for Stewart, we would not have arrived at the favourable outcome and settlement that we did.
Stewart recommended a company to gain access for the diggers and dig the 600 millimetre x 7 metre deep holes, fill them with concrete, steel cages and cap. He also recommended a firm of builders to reinstate 2 decks and build a new concrete block retaining wall.
These people all did excellent work , as did the employees from Stewart’s office and the Geotech engineers he had to engage from time to time. Stewart arranged all permitting, site inspections and he will complete the final sign off and removal of the yellow stickers from the house title.
It goes without saying, that we would most definitely highly recommend Stewart and his company”.
