December 2016 – Daveron’s new Blenheim branch

Daveron Scaffolding has opened an office in Blenheim to cater for scaffolding requirements in the Marlborough and Nelson regions.

Christchurch-owned Daveron Scaffolding has been in operation for 30 years, working on many notable projects including AMI Stadium in Christchurch and the restoration of the Great Hall (Christchurch Arts Centre). The growth in the Marlborough region has led to Daveron’s expansion into that area as a natural progression. We now have a team of up to six people in the Blenheim region.

Running the Blenheim operation is Andrew Johnson. He is looking forward to extending Daveron’s reputation for reliability and customer service.
