Each job is personally overseen by Managing Director James Carter, from start to finish, and we place as much effort and care into building great relationships with our clients as we do their structure.

New Homes

We offer two options for those looking to build a new home – Design and Build or New Build.

Design and build is the best option for those who want the convenience and consistency of having one firm take care of everything.

During the design process, we'll work with you closely to understand every dimension of your vision, from its look and layout, to its functionality and ambience. Our advanced design computer software means you have the reassurance of watching your design unfold in high-end, 3-D graphics, with the ability to change and tweak it as we go through the process.

Under our New Build option, you can choose to have an architect or draughtsperson design your home, and we take responsibility for all building aspects, maintaining close communication throughout the build.

Whichever option a client opts for, often we assume the project management role, co-ordinating day-to-day management and overall outcomes. We also take care of the many logistical, administrative and labour responsibilities, including:

  • Building consents, including arranging inspections

  • Sourcing materials

  • Supplier liaison

  • Co-ordinating and managing subcontractors

  • Overall project management

  • Regular and committed client communication

Renovations

Changing an existing home is often a great way to capitalise on your current asset, weather you’re looking to provide more space for a growing family, maximise current space or improving older features.

Regardless of your requirements, it’s important it melds seamlessly with the rest of the house. We are passionate about our renovation and alteration work for this very reason - there are no better projects to truly test not just our team's building skills, but our craftsmanship.

We provide full support and project management, including:

  • Design work

  • Building consents, including arranging inspections

  • Sourcing materials

  • Supplier liaison

  • Co-ordinating and managing subcontractors

  • Overall project management

  • Regular and committed client communication
