The whole house, not just one room

Sometimes a single room won't cut it — the layout fights you, the place feels dated, or the family's outgrown it. A whole-home reno reworks how the house actually lives. One team, one plan, one point of contact.

  • Reworked layout

    Open up the living areas, move the kitchen, reconfigure rooms — so the house finally lives the way you actually do.

  • Kitchen & bathrooms

    New kitchen and bathrooms designed as part of the bigger picture, not bolted on afterwards.

  • Warmth & weathertightness

    Insulation, heating, double glazing and cladding where it's needed, for a warmer, drier, tighter home.

  • Wiring, plumbing & finishes

    New wiring, plumbing, lighting, flooring and joinery throughout, tying the whole place together.

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.
