About Vertical Surfaces
We measure, supply and install glass splashbacks, balustrades, frameless showers and mirrors across Waikato, Auckland and Bay of Plenty.
Our background
Our experience is in precision measuring, CAD rendering and pre-fabrication for fitted installations — a discipline we brought across from years of stone benchtop templating into glass and aluminium.
We introduced 3D laser measuring technology to bring that same accuracy to splashbacks, balustrades, showers and mirrors — measuring on-site and drawing directly into CAD, so every job is manufactured from an exact digital record rather than a hand-drawn sketch.
Our team
Hayden Smith
Director — Operations Manager & Installer
Hayden brings every part of the job together — from planning to the tools in his hands. If there's a way to make it work on-site, he's already found it.
Shonita Smith
Installer
Exceptional craftsmanship with a personal touch — and word on site is she can out-arm-wrestle most of the men.
Clive Donaldson
Director — Measuring Specialist
Clive's strength is in the detail — precise CAD work paired with an eye for the bigger picture on every job.
Lisa Donaldson
Marketing & Administration
Lisa keeps the business moving, from the first enquiry to the finished job — and makes sure the story gets told.
The dream team
Hayden and Shonita often work jobs together — two skilled installers, one job done right.
