Check out the awesome new playground at QE II! It's been fantastic supplying timber, hardware, and concrete for this job. Our wonderful rep Karlie took these photos on one of her site visits, but she says it's even better in person so make sure you check it out and let us know what you think!

Introducing our newest addition to the Hamptons family, Steve Gee, bringing plenty of energy, experience, a massive Spotify playlist, and a refreshingly data-driven way of thinking after 15 years in the construction industry around Christchurch.

Steve’s a proud family man with three teenage kids (one of whom has already shot past him in height), and a true Riccarton local — born, raised, and still happily based there to this day. His first car was a Mazda Familia, his very first job was doing a milk run around the suburb, and proof that some things don’t need changing… he still lives close to where it all started.

Sport has always been a huge part of Steve’s life. With an athletics background in the 400m hurdles (insert pun about facing life's hurdles here!) followed by an impressive rugby career behind him, (he racked up 186 Division One games over 13 seasons with HSOB, staying loyal to the one club the whole way), Steve has truly proved to be a man for all seasons, sporting seasons that is. These days, the boots are hung up thanks to one concussion too many, but he’s still giving back by coaching senior and Senior B rugby.

Before moving into construction, Steve spent time in hospitality as bar manager at the Speight’s Ale House at Tower Junction — a role he remembers very fondly, mostly for reasons involving free beer and discounted after-work pints, something you won’t be getting at Hamptons Steve!

A near-miss with being named Waylon Willie Gee (thanks to his mum’s strong views on country music), a proud Canterbury ITM Cup Championship win at the new stadium in 2012, a trial game for the Colts against the legendary 2007 All Blacks side, and a Maltese–Shih Tzu named Marshall (yes, after Eminem) all round out the bugling Steve Gee fact file nicely.

Outside of work, Steve enjoys pottering at home and listening to ALL the music — his Spotify shuffle is legendary for both its chaos and scope.

Welcome aboard, Steve — great to have you in the backline.

Last week David, Don, and Mike made a trip up to Auckland for the annual ITM Tradeshow. It was a fantastic few days of connection, supplier collaboration, and relationship building. Speaking of, check out our golf pro David at the Tradeshow with Alice Douglas from HTL Timber - he did get a hole in one! On top of the time spent building meaningful connections, David and Don had an awesome time checking the local boats. Cheers to Mike for the great photos!

We're stoked to introduce our newest yardperson, Marmito Torio (Mar)! Marmito brings a wealth of next level, hands-on experience, as well as a fantastic friendly attitude.
