Everything that makes outdoor living work

Most of our outdoor projects centre on decking, but if you can dream it we can build it — pergolas, fences, fireplaces, BBQs, stairs and pool surrounds.

  • Decks & timber work

    Hardwood or composite decking, built to handle NZ sun and rain and last for decades. We'll talk you through the pros and cons of each.

  • Pergolas & covered areas

    Pergolas, louvres and roofed areas so you can actually use the space rain or shine, all year round.

  • Fences & privacy screens

    Boundary fences, privacy screens and gates that tidy up the whole section and keep the neighbours at arm's length.

  • Pool surrounds & BBQ areas

    Pool decking, outdoor kitchens, BBQ areas, fireplaces and stairs — everything that makes outdoor living work.

Don’t just take our word for it

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.

CraigGoogle review

Highly recommend! These guys were awesome, professional, clean, communicative and had a high standard of work. Worked within our budget, made suggestions around savings and provided a fixed quote, which they stuck to. We renovated a 1980s bathroom, toilet and shower area. Will definitely use again for our kitchen reno. 10/10!

Jake and his team did a fantastic 120sqm extension on our home in the Waikato. Jake & Faye are easy to deal with and listened to our requests and delivered exactly what was quoted & promised, to an outstanding quality and workmanship.
