Thanks to PRFC Centurion Chris Molenaar and the whole Team at Petone Engineering for their decades of unwavering support. The monumental success we’ve celebrated this season couldn't happen without the backing of generous local businesses like Petone Engineering.

The Petone Engineering team has just completed this new warehouse on Wellington's CentrePort wharf.

Well done to Jefferson and his team for once again delivering the project ahead of schedule.

It's also great to see CentrePort continuing to invest in expanding its wharf facilities.

That investment is a positive sign for the future of shipping and freight through our capital city, and we're proud to have played a part in delivering another important piece of infrastructure.

The Petone Engineering team has recently completed the seismic strengthening of Begonia House, located within the Wellington Botanic Garden.

Working alongside the team at LT McGuinness, we helped strengthen this historic building, ensuring it can continue to be safely enjoyed by future generations while preserving an important part of Wellington's heritage.

Full credit to Jefferson and his team for another job well done.

Your professionalism and attention to detail continue to set a high standard.

And to the LT McGuinness team—it's always a pleasure working with you. Another well-planned, well-executed project delivered through strong collaboration.

The steel just keeps getting bigger.

Our recent projects have taken the handling demands at Petone Engineering to another level—and the team wouldn't have it any other way.

Heavier lifts, more welding, and increasingly complex rigging all bring new challenges. It's the opportunity to tackle more demanding work, develop new skills, and deliver projects safely and efficiently that keeps our team motivated.

Growth comes with challenges, and that's exactly what makes the work rewarding.

A cool moonlight backdrop shot from one of the team during a recent night installation.

We were given a one-night window to install these gantries at McKays Crossing.

It’s on jobs like this that your planning & QA processes really get tested.

Well done to the fab team and site crew for another job well done.

Another strengthening project nearing completion.

The Christmas break always brings time-critical programmes, with work needing to be finished before school doors reopen. Over the past two months, our team has delivered a demanding schedule on the Brook Block at Wellington Girls’ College.

Crown Infrastructure have shared a great overview of the project and the work involved.

Upgrading and strengthening education facilities is important work. It protects existing assets and ensures they’re ready for the next generation.

Proud of the effort our team put in to get this across the line.

Strengthening Wellington’s key assets — Ahead of Schedule.

Here are a few shots of the Petone Engineering team hard at work strengthening the Old Children’s Hospital in Wellington for Hawkins.

Our crew has powered through Phase 1 — finishing four weeks ahead of schedule, a fantastic achievement that reflects the commitment and coordination of our project management and site teams.

This project is a great example of our team living up to our number one brand promise:

“Proactively managed projects completed on time and to spec.”

Well done to everyone involved — a real team effort delivering great results on a key health facility project.
