The Challenge

The Northview Terraces project, located on a scenic hillside in Queenstown, presented unique challenges. The site required the construction of the basement and retaining walls that could be easily installed directly against the cliff face. With the slow install times that blockwork presented, Form Building & Developments decided to look for a more efficient, innovative, and reliable alternative.

The Blockwork Alternative

The AFS Rediwall system was the ideal choice for the basement walls on this project, offering a cost-effective, faster, and more reliable system. Key advantages included:

Time Efficiency: Brownie Construction, the on-site builders, installed the AFS Rediwall themselves, eliminating the need for extra subtrades, significantly accelerating the project timeline, and saving the client several months in construction time.

Cost Reduction: AFS Rediwall reduced additional labor costs by eliminating the need for sub-trades and streamlined the construction process.

Ease of Installation: With the AFS Rediwall system, the builder was in full control of the project and construction schedule. The product was supplied directly to Brownie Construction, and the builders installed it using our detailed installation guides and expert advice from our technical team. This approach ensured that the project progressed smoothly and according to the builder’s timeline.

The Outcome

The Northview Terraces project was completed with remarkable efficiency and cost-effectiveness, without any compromise on quality. The builder successfully met the demands of the project, staying on track with the build programme and avoiding delays from other subtrades. By choosing the AFS Rediwall system over traditional blockwork, the client reaped the benefits of a high-quality, cost-effective, and faster solution.
