A family owned and operated business, MATCO Civil Contractors was established in 2017 by Matt Paget. MATCO began with only one digger and one employee and has rapidly grown to have a team of over 25 employees along with a wide range of machinery. This allows them to work on various projects throughout the Bay of Plenty, Waikato, Taupo, Napier and Coromandel regions.

They pride themselves on their excellent reputation in the construction industry which has been built over the course of the many projects they have completed. With a strong focus on quality and workmanship, they are committed to creating and maintaining strong relationships with their clients and providing the highest quality of work at competitive prices.

MATCO has invested in state-of-the-art technology that allows them to deliver high quality results with a low margin of error. They have the expertise and equipment to manage earthworks, floor preparation, footings, car parks, subdivisions, surfacing, cartage and transportation. From small-scale one-off jobs such as concrete and asphalt driveways to large scale projects like subdivisions, they can manage it all.

WE’RE COMMITTED TO HEALTH AND SAFETY

MATCO are committed to creating a safe work environment by ensuring Health and Safety is a priority for everyone. They pride themselves in their commitment to meet the latest Health and Safety requirements as set out by WorkSafe New Zealand.


”Matt and the MATCO team delivered excellent results on our subdivision project. Will use them again for sure.”
— John, Civil Engineer

Matco owner Matt Paget has over 25 years’ experience working in the civil infrastructure industry 


With his extensive experience and knowledge working in the civil infrastructure industry, he is as much at ease on the tools as he is managing high budget projects with multiple stakeholders.

After starting out in the industry at 16, Matt worked his way from a labourer to a machine operator including bulldozers, graders, motor scrapers & excavators, to becoming a foreman/supervisor running multiple jobs and crews for various high-profile clients. Before starting MATCO in 2017 Matt held an operational management position for 12 years at one of the largest civil roading and infrastructure companies in NZ.  Matt has extensive on-site experience, from supervising field testing to keeping tabs on health and safety, environmental impacts and traffic monitoring. His ability to relate to field staff as well as stakeholders and clients ensures that MATCO has the depth and ability to manage your project no matter what size.

Matt was awarded the first ever trade certification given in New Zealand, after being selected to take part in the pilot scheme for the New Zealand trade certificate through Civil Contractors NZ and Connexis.

Matt has strong family values and a focus on nurturing young workers within the industry. Here at MATCO your family is our family!
