We are a family-owned construction company based in Auckland, delivering high-quality building solutions across the region. We specialise in architectural new builds , recladding houses, full home renovations, and architectural design services, all under one roof.
Whether you’re starting fresh with a new build, restoring a leaky home or reimagining your existing space, we can take you from the first design sketch through to the final coat of paint.
For clients who haven’t engaged the services of an architect yet, we work closely with Bare Architecture, our in-house architectural partner, to offer seamless project delivery, from concept to completion. This collaborative model reduces delays, improves cost control, and ensures your vision is carried through with care and consistency.
When you work with us, you’re not passed from department to department, you’re working with a team who sees the bigger picture and sweats the small stuff.
