Leading the Way
Our Story
LMC Building & Construction is built on a simple philosophy: smart solutions and quality craftsmanship, every time. Luke Chambers and Evan Claridge lead a skilled team of professional builders with over 25 years’ experience — bringing practical know-how, clear communication and a problem-solving mindset to every project, from new builds and commercial fit-outs through to renovations and landscape construction.
As a small, family-run business, we love calling Kaikōura home. We work with integrity and a strong work ethic, and health and safety is central to everything we do — every site well managed, everyone home safely.
Building is one of the biggest investments you’ll make, so we deliver personalised service, reliable project management and craftsmanship you can trust from start to finish.
