NEW BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION
When it's time to build anew, Rycroft Construction is your trusted partner for comprehensive bridge construction services. We work alongside civil engineers to design and construct bridges that meet exact specifications and standards. Whether for roads, farms, or special projects, we handle everything from initial planning to final execution. Using high-quality materials and innovative methods, we ensure your new bridge is both durable and cost-effective.
BRIDGE REPAIR
Maintaining the integrity of existing bridges is crucial for safety and connectivity. Seventy per cent of our work focuses on repairing bridges made of concrete, steel, and timber.

“After two weather events that damaged our farm bridge we employed Rycroft Construction to restore the bridge to its former state - to the specifications designed by ACE Limited, Morrinsville.
Our negotiations with Leith were conducted with great efficiency and the work was carried out causing minimal disruption to the running of the farm. This involved strengthening of the bridge and providing erosion protection in the waterway. The finished site was left in a tidy state and we were very pleased with the results of the whole project. It was a real pleasure working with them.”

“Rycroft did the contract to replace our flood damaged 25m bridge. We got two quotes and the easiest one to get was also the best, there was very little paper work and it was done quickly.
Once work started we were kept up to date and given time lines, as expected things did not go as smoothly as hoped due to circumstances out of Rycrofts control, but things they could control went well. All the subcontracters did their job well and we finished with a fine new bridge & the work areas were left tidy.
We would get Leith and co back for other jobs without any worries at all.”
