Visionary Voyager

If you are looking to transform your space, look no further. Dave and Kirsty run a great operation, are very transparent and were easy to deal with every step of the way. Dave’s talent on the digger is exceptional and his vision for the space far exceeded our own. We couldn’t be happier with the result. Seriously, stop looking, you have found the company to get your job done. Thanks Kirsty and Dave

Dave Agnew

Smallgusta, Oropi

We engaged Bay Shaping Ltd to rescue a prototype mini golf project called ‘Smallgusta’.  We were under pressure but we were instantly impressed, relieved and grateful we had a proficient operator who communicated well and made sure we got it right. After we saw what he could do in a short manner of time we let him go a step further, creating a 60m steep clay bank into an undisputed feature of the golf course with landscaped steps, embedded rocks and a smooth rolling embankment.

It was easy for us to trust Dave.  He is straight up and thinks of the best outcome - something we cherished after previous experiences as newcomers to construction. Dave's skills on the machinery are legendary and worth every cent. We have also enjoyed the easy, professional dealings with Kirsty in the Bay Shaping office. They are positive operators and we look forward to working with them into the future.

My business partner and I fully endorse Bay Shaping Ltd for those special, individual projects that require the best with some creative license.
