It's great to be sending out the first JCC client newsletter, keeping you up to date with what's happening in our world.

The teams are busy with a variety of jobs including some great new builds and extensive renovations.

JCC has been working in the Hamilton region for over 7 years now. We have seen the business grow from just myself and one apprentice, to four full time teams and 18 staff in total, It's something both Sarah and I are very proud of.

During this time we have expanded to include all the usual construction business offerings from - New Builds, Renovations, Build ready plans, Maintenance and Emergency calls (which we have seen a little more of lately). But the vision for the business hasn't changed, with our focus always grounded in our values of innovation, excellence and integrity.

I still oversee and project manage all of our clients jobs, and the feedback I get is people like to know they are dealing with the boss. If you are looking to build or renovate I look forward to hearing from you to talk through your plans, call me directly on 027 5221115.

Thanks Will

Insulation, R-values, Thermal conductivity. What does it mean?

R-Values and Thermal conductivity, it can all get a little confusing and technical, so what do the values mean, and does it really matter?

The thermal resistance rating or R-Value is the measure used most commonly across insulation products, in a nutshell the higher the R-Value the better the material's ability to resist the transfer of heat. For example, a product rated R5 will perform better than a product rated R2.

To get techy, the formula m²K/W is broken down in two parts -

R- Value = Thickness (m)
Thermal Conductivity: The rate at which heat penetrates through a given material. (W/mK)

So, does a higher value really matter? It sure does, as overall it will have a greater insulating effect keeping your home warmer for longer and subsequently saving you energy costs. If you have to choose reach for the higher R value to get the best result.

Here at JCC Build we are all over the new construction R-values changes which came into effect on 1st May 2023. You can be confident the right R-value products will be used for your project.

Hakarimata Home – JCC Finesse 303

This family of 6 knew immediately that the JCC Build ready Finesse 303 plan was the one for them.

Narrow in width, yet highly functional and modern, this home does it all at the same time! The render shown with board/batten and horizontal ship-lap timber, helps the home gain its edgy look. However the clients chose interlock panels as an alternative product, creating a slick and easy to care finished result. An impressive feature of the design is the full-height architectural glazing and full opening bi fold doors onto a 100 sqm deck. The house splits into two forms, one the primary suite, the other the living. Bedrooms are positioned separate from the main living space, while the bathroom can still be accessed by guests. With both function and style, the Finesse 303 is a real winner, due to its raking ceilings and substantial open plan design. Presenting a total floor area of over 200 m2 all the while capturing the breath taking view of the Hakarimata ranges.

At JCC we pride ourselves on being innovative in the way we run our business. So when we saw the project management tool Buildertrend and what it could offer our clients we were impressed.

Now at the very hub of how we run our business Buildertrend has changed the way we do things.

Offering clients a digital tool that captures all the detail of their project is very cool. Information like real time schedules showing dates and times of each project step. You sign off on your selections, like tiles, kitchens, flooring choices, which then triggers the supplier to order the product and book the installer automatically. Daily logs and project updates from the team on site so you can see what's happened during the day. Even seeing information like what time the concrete truck will be arriving - is fantastic. Tracking the budget and cashflow management, round out this all in one very easy to use platform.

We know that to be successful at project management it's all about communication, and this tool really is the superstar in making a stress free building experience a reality. So when you work with JCC your experience is innovative and comprehensive providing a coherent and ideal project from start to finish.

Clients see their project schedule in real time
