About Us

A Bit About Us

We are a family-based contracting business in the heart of Upper Hutt and have been operating since 2004. 

Amongst our awesome team we have a range of different skills and qualifications, we have licensed building practitioners, generator technicians, licensed electricians, qualified engineers, asphalt technicians and much more. We believe it is a great asset to have qualified workers on board, as this ensures any work we complete all gets completed in the safest possible way, while complying to all NZ standards and regulations.

Any work you may need done; we can do it. We are also able to work through the council consent process for work we carry out.

Here at Braddock & Co we take great pride in the work we complete. We carry out this work to the highest possible standard to ensure not only our clients are happy, but that we are satisfied too.
