We first met Tom via email as we prepared to move from the Far Nth to Canterbury, having had him recommended to us by a friend. Tom was down to earth and flexible from the outset. Since then he has completed many building tasks for us - some big - some not so big. We have found Tom to be scrupulously honest, reliable and exacting in his work. Other supporting tradies also speak very highly of Tom. We would never go elsewhere and as builders are notoriously busy these days, we would always prefer to wait for our man, Tom.

Have used for building work from full renovation to repairs and never disappointed, communication was always easy and the work is done to a high standard. 5/5 would recommend.

Over the past four years, I have engaged Tom from Dennehy Construction to work on seven of my development projects in Christchurch. These projects have included multi-residential units ranging from 2-unit to 4-unit sites.

Tom, a licensed building practitioner, has been involved in every stage of the projects—from laying the foundations to completing the landscaping. I have consistently found him to be highly organized and focused on delivering projects on time and to a professional standard.

Tom is exceptionally skilled in all aspects of construction and maintains a high standard of workmanship. He also takes responsibility for overseeing the quality of work completed by other contractors, ensuring everything meets his meticulous standards. His excellent communication skills stand out—any issues that arise are addressed promptly and effectively.

With an in-depth understanding of the building code, Tom always ensures compliance. If faced with something unfamiliar, he goes the extra mile to research and resolve it. Beyond project builds, he has also been readily available for maintenance work on rental properties and larger-scale projects.

Tom leads a reliable team, including seven builders, to ensure tasks are completed efficiently and to a high standard.

I highly recommend Tom Dennehy Construction for any building project. Feel free to contact me at 027 222 5141 if you have any questions.

From minor repairs to large scale renovations, their professionalism and attention to detail consistently exceed our expectations. I’ve also personally used Tom’s building services and been thoroughly impressed with the results. Having known Tom for over 25 years, I can confidently recommend him and his team to anyone in need of high quality building services.
