Covid-19 and quakes keep B.G Beaven Builders busy in Kaikoura The building boom is keeping established building company BG Beaven busy in Kaikoura. The company extended its Rotherham-based building services into the seaside resort in 2019. Its three Kaikoura-based builders and company proprietor Barney Beaven are being kept busy thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic that has seen people spending their money at home on new homes, extensions and alternations. ‘‘Their money is no good in the bank because of the low interest rate, so they are investing it in property. ‘‘There is also alot of people in Kaikoura and <strong>North</strong> <strong>Canterbury</strong>still doing earthquake repairs which we help out with,’’ Barney says. While BGBeaven is the main contractor on jobs, Barney says he sub-contracts jobs such as drainage and electrical work to local firms where possible. BGBeaven is also registered with Service Resources, and gains alot of Government agency work through the company. The company is working on an office block for Kiwi Rail off Beach Road in Kaikoura. The building has been leased out for many years, but has now been converted into three offices and ameeting room. Six metres has been added to it for awet area for accessible showers, toilets and lockers for men and women. The block firstly had to be engineered to 67 percent of the seismic building code, Barney explains. Meanwhile, B G Beaven retains its Rotherham base, from which it has been providing services throughout <strong>North</strong> <strong>Canterbury</strong> for more than 40 years. Barney and Wendy remain the foundation Outdoor Living of the business, with Barney still building and Wendy,anaccountant, looking after the business’s financial affairs. The company has come along way since Barney began building woolsheds as a21year old. The work now extends far beyond farmbuildings, with the company providing everything from repairing weatherboards to building $2 million architecturally designed homes. BGBeaven can get plansdrawn up for clients from reputable subcontractors, and its two Rotherhambased project managers do pricing and guide clients, while alsoensuring buildsmeet all the buildingstandards, rules and regulations.
