Testimonials

“I could not be more pleased to provide a Letter of Recommendation for the SRS and its director, Luke Tempest. As Auckland Zoo’s Head of Zoo Environment, Design & Construction I am responsible for our capital design and construction projects, asset and facility management, horticulture, security and the implementation of sustainable practices that promote and reflect the zoo’s mission and core values. A part of my role includes serving as Project Director for delivery of the $60 million renewal of the zoo’s South East Asian Precinct (SEAP) that shall serve zoo staff and the broader community for the next 50 years. In this role, I have worked closely with SRS and Luke Tempest. 

I commend SRS for their focus on provision of excellent, expert and timely service to deliver challenging animal care facilities and complex rigging and speciality equipment. SRS has consistently provided me and my multi-disciplined, and multi-stakeholder teams with a level of service that reflects clarity of thought, design innovation and attention to the operational needs of the zoo. The SRS team is generous with their time and resources, clear in their communications, professional in their delivery of work output and innovative in their approach to design solutions as well as the methods of achieving those solutions. SRS has been a team player; exceptional at creating and maintaining relationships with the project team, a complex set of zoo staff, design professionals and, importantly, with the general contractor.  “I wholeheartedly, and without reservations of any kind, recommend SRS and Luke Tempest” 

“I had the opportunity to work with the SRS Group NZ Ltd on two different jobs, such as the SH16 Waima-Haslett Footbridge handrail extension project and the SH20 Barrowcliffe Road Bridge Anti-Throw Screen installation project.

At both jobs, we have worked together from the design stage all the way to the on-site finishing touches. During these works, I was able to observe a high-level proficiency about the details and the quality of the finished product was excellent. Working nighttime, within a traffic closure on the motorway network is always challenging and the team handled it very well.

I am looking forward to working again with the team in the future and can confidently recommend the services of the SRS Group NZ Ltd to anyone.

“PFS have partnered with SRS in a subcontracting capacity for various infrastructure project over the last 3 years, I have found the SRS team to be both professional and timely in all communication and operational activities, the quality of the workmanship was to a satisfactory industry standard and there were never any H&S concerns from the multiple observations undertaken during the delivery on site.

“SRS have been a trusted and reliable supplier/partner to PFS and we would not hesitate to partner with the again in the future if the opportunity arose.

“I engaged SRS Group’s fabrication team in 2020 for the fabrication of my architecturally designed Waiheke homes’ custom bronze terrace balustrade and pool fencing which included gates and complex curves using this ancient alloy. I subsequently increased their scope to include 39 internal heated towel rails also in bronze. I have enjoyed seeing the organic ageing of this metal and the change from bright bronze to a natural oxidised warm brown.

“SRS displayed their expertise and professionalism with their problem solving, technical advice, and the resulting finished product quality was beyond my expectations. I found the team at SRS worked collaboratively with the other build teams and specialist contractors involved in my home’s build, and were timely with their work and punctual to the site.  I would wholeheartedly recommend SRS for their fabrication service at a high-end residential level, and as such, I myself have contracted SRS for another project I am undertaking in 2022. I look forward to working with them again and being able to enjoy their workmanship once more.
