The Structural design and supervision for all of these projects (and many more) have been undertaken by Buller George Turkington within the last two years!!!

So that's why we've been a little busy lately.

All work and no play…..

Never ones to be accused of being boring, the Staff at Buller George Turkington did very well recently in the recent X-terra 3-discipline event held in Rotorua (http://www.xterranz.com/).

John and David managed to finish in front of the Rotorua Ibis Construction team in the "friendly" division, while Elizabeth and Josie turned on an inspired performance, securing first place in the Open Women's event (Team JE).

Next Year the blokes promise to train a little more...(yeah, right! Tui anyone?)
