Driveways, landscaping, civil works and public spaces, built by one local team since 1972.
Robinsons started in Whangārei in 1972, and three generations later we’re still here. Our crews live in the communities they work in, so the driveway we lay could be next door, and the playground we build might be where our own kids play. When you live with your work, you do it once and you do it right.
What began as Peter and Joan Robinson’s small asphalt company has grown into one of Northland’s most versatile civil and landscape contractors, with our own crews for earthworks, drainage, surfacing, landscaping and timber work. Whether it’s a new driveway or a public park, you deal with one team on one contract.
“A truly legendary Northland business family.”
Northern Advocate Business Hall of Fame, 2025. The Robinson family was the first family inducted for its generational contribution to Northland.
Our promise: a first-class job every time – no shortcuts, no hassles.
The early days: our crew hotmixing around the Town Basin chess board.
