About Me
Trained as a Quantity Surveyor in the UK and based in New Zealand since 2015, I bring international experience and proven systems to help you get accurate, bank-ready cost reports and practical advice at every stage of your project.
Since launching LLL Quantity Surveying Services in Central Otago in 2017, I’ve worked with clients nationwide on everything from first-home builds to multi-unit developments. Whether you’re in Alexandra or Auckland, you’ll get the same responsive, fixed-fee service — with clear communication and fast turnaround times — no matter where your project is based.
As a registered member of both the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and the New Zealand Institute of Quantity Surveyors (NZIQS), my work meets the highest professional standards. That means your reports are trusted by banks, Kāinga Ora, insurers, and grant agencies, giving you accuracy, compliance, and credibility you can rely on.
With over 15 years of industry experience, I understand the construction lending process inside out. From funding applications and progress claims to loan drawdowns, I make sure your documentation is correct the first time, so approvals happen faster and with less back-and-forth.
Whether you’re a builder needing sharp, defensible variation pricing, a homeowner wanting budget certainty, or a project owner looking to keep cashflow and costs under control, you’ll get a practical, reliable approach to managing the financial side of your build. All work is delivered electronically using industry-leading tools like CostX, so you receive accurate, easy-to-read reports quickly — wherever you are in New Zealand.
