Blackley Construction Ltd have undertaken a number of small and large farm irrigation projects from private land owners to Fonterra Co-operative Group.

We have been involved in the laying of standard installations for subdivisions through to special installations involving water filters, meters, pumps and specially fabricated pipe work.

We have installed more than 100,000m of pressure pipe for fixed effluent irrigation systems.

The Blackley Group is able to offer GPS survey and design services using the expertise of Pathfinder Services Ltd.

Blackley Construction Ltd has over the years constructed numerous horse arenas for both recreational and commercial use.

Whether the arena is for private use by family and friends, clubs, professional horse trainers or for riding for the disabled ventures, Blackleys can offer the appropriate conduction solution.

It is very important to have an arena surface and base that is specifically matched to the end use.

There are a number of factors that need to be defined to ensure the longevity of the surface and the safety of the horses. Discussions prior to construction with the potential users will provide the best end product and value for money for the client.

Blackleys use a variety of products and methods to best suit each situation.
