About Taylor Construction

Taylor Construction was founded in 2011 by Managing Director Damien Taylor. Since then we’ve grown into a team of 20+ employees focused on delivering high‑quality volume projects across the North Island. Our leadership and regional project managers bring decades of combined experience in programme management, consenting, technical delivery and on‑site construction. We partner with trusted consultants and subcontractors we’ve worked with on many successful projects to ensure seamless collaboration from concept to handover.
