New Home Builds in Matamata
Matamata is a farming-service town with everything from rural homesteads to a steadily growing residential edge. As a family-run, NZCB-certified builder working across the eastern Waikato, RB Thomas specialises in new homes built from scratch — fully custom, or from our barn-style plan range. Whatever the condition of your Matamatahome or project, you get the same promise we’ve built our name on — projects on spec, on time, on budget.
What new home builds looks like in Matamata
Building new in Matamata is your chance to get exactly the home you want. We work with high-end architects who can draw up anything you can imagine, or you can start from one of our barn-style plans for a faster, more cost-certain path. Either way we manage the whole build — design, consent, construction and handover — and back it with the Halo 10-Year Residential Guarantee. We also build granny flats, sleepouts and garages.

They said it, not us
“I have had the privilege of using Jake as a builder and project manager on numerous occasions. I can honestly say you will never find a more honest and genuine man. His workmanship is second to none and he communicates through every step of the build/renovation and makes sure you understand the process. I couldn't recommend him highly enough.”
