What Commercial Property Services does

Commercial Property Services, trading as CPS Group, is a privately held New Zealand commercial construction firm specialising in the upgrade of existing structures rather than new-build construction. Headquartered in Christchurch (69 Corsair Drive, Wigram), the company operates with a small core team of approximately five owner-operators led by founder Hamish Robinson and general manager Logan Robinson, supplemented by a flexible subcontractor and trade network across the South Island.

The company's offering is organised around four integrated capability areas: commercial building upgrades (structural modifications and comprehensive refresh programmes), education-sector expertise (Ministry of Education assets, asbestos removal, decarbonisation), live-site expertise (work conducted within operational fuel stations, schools, and research facilities), and commercial roofing upgrades (TPO membrane systems with 20-year weathertightness warranties, Butynol replacement, and canopy systems). Notable technical differentiators include TPO membrane installation methodology for longer-lasting roofing finishes and a specialised capability to execute complex projects in sensitive live environments regulated by bodies such as the Ministry of Primary Industries.

CPS Group generates revenue through one-time project-based contracts with government and commercial clients, including the Ministry of Education, Mobil fuel stations, Landcare Research (Manaaki Whenua), and individual commercial operators such as Golden Mile Motel & Tavern. Pricing is bespoke and quote-based, supported by free property consultations. The firm relies on direct client engagement via phone, email, and its website rather than formal marketing, and access to government work appears to flow through direct relationships and procurement processes rather than intermediary channels.

Core offering

CPS Group is a New Zealand-based commercial construction firm specializing in upgrading existing commercial structures, including roofing membrane installations (TPO, Butynol), asbestos abatement, structural modifications, and decarbonisation projects. They serve government organizations and commercial businesses, delivering complex building upgrades in live operational environments such as fuel stations, schools, and research facilities across New Zealand.

Product overview

CPS Group operates as a single-service commercial construction firm focused exclusively on upgrading existing structures, not a software product company. The company offers four integrated capability areas: Commercial Building Upgrades (core structural and reroofing services), Education Building Expertise (Ministry of Education projects including asbestos removal and decarbonisation), Live-Site Expertise (operating within active environments), and Commercial Roofing Upgrades (TPO membrane, Butynol replacement, and canopy systems). These capabilities work together to deliver complete building upgrade programmes that combine structural modifications, reroofing, and building works as demonstrated in projects like the Golden Mile motel upgrade. Project delivery is supported by a reliable trade network across the South Island.
