Fraser Thomas was established in 1969, following the merger of two existing firms. Fraser & Thomas, an engineering practice based in Papatoetoe; and Jackman, Gunman & Partners, a surveying company based in Otahuhu. Today Fraser Thomas Ltd remains 100% NZ owned and is guided by a team of thirteen directors, each a specialist in their field of expertise.<\/p>\n

Since 1969 Fraser Thomas has grown into a multi-disciplinary consultancy agency employing more than 90 staff across five offices throughout New Zealand, with a strong reputation for delivering exceptionally high-quality service both in New Zealand and internationally. Our head office is based in Highbrook, Auckland, with additional offices in Christchurch, the Hawke’s Bay, Nelson, and the Marlborough Regions.<\/p>\n

An additional sister-branch operates under a separate brand \u2013 Barry Satchell Consultants Ltd \u2013 based in central Auckland and specialising in construction surveying and civil\/development engineering.<\/p>\n

Our Christchurch office has provided geotechnical and structural engineering services as part of the Canterbury Rebuild following the devastating earthquakes that hit the region in September 2010, and February 2011. Fundamental to our work in Canterbury has been the geotechnical and structural investigations and assessments of residential, \u201chillside\u201d, commercial, institutional and industrial sites for insurance purposes and in support of applications for subdivision and building consents. As well as engineering design of appropriate repair works, addressing liquefaction and seismic strength issues.<\/p>\n

Employing a very high calibre of staff, Fraser Thomas have highly qualified and experienced experts across; civil, environmental, geotechnical and structural engineering; resource management, surveying, land development and contaminated land. This allows the team at Fraser Thomas to provide expert support across every stage of a project.
