A Canterbury Business Built on Hard Work

Knockout Concrete Cutters was founded in 1996 by a local boxer – the name’s a nod to our fighting spirit and our no-nonsense approach to getting the job done. Since then, we’ve grown into a respected, well-known name in Canterbury’s construction and trades scene.


Today, we’re proudly owned and led by Greg Turnbull, who heads up a specialist team of concrete cutting professionals. With over 100 years of combined industry experience, we know what it takes to deliver safe, precise, and reliable work for every project – big or small.
