ARCHITECTS & TRADES
Builders in Tauranga who collaborate with architects and trades to build better
Thoughtful collaboration from concept to completion.
If you’re an architect, designer, or local tradesperson who needs a builder to fulfill your vision we should talk.
We’re architectural builders based in Mt Maunganui working across the Bay of Plenty and Waikato, who believe great projects are built on strong relationships and shared standards.
We work with people who take pride in what they do. Who think long-term. Who show up, communicate, and deliver craftsmanship without cutting corners.
Projects go better when the people do too.
THE RIGHT PEOPLE, THE RIGHT APPROACH
We’ve found that the best work comes from teams who get along.
People who are respectful on site. Who treat clients, each other, and the work with care.
That’s what we look for, and that’s what we bring.
THE WAY WE SHOW UP
We’re not about big egos or low bids.
We’re about building something remarkable, together.
Clean sites. Good communication. Clear expectations. Mutual respect.
A bit of banter. And the shared satisfaction of delivering something we’re all proud to stand beside.
How we work with Architects
We get involved early, often before the first sketch is signed off.
Why? Because a buildable design saves time, money, and stress down the road. We offer input from the ground up, literally.
Site access, sun, slope, drainage, budget. All things that shape the design from day one.
We work with architects who are flexible, client-focused, and keen to collaborate.
We’ll walk the site together, problem-solve, and keep the dialogue open throughout the build.
Early-stage collaboration and site walkovers.
Real-world input on cost, buildability, and materials.
Design detailing support for efficiency and function.
Open communication to protect your intent and the client’s goals.
Long-term quality that supports your reputation.
How we work with Trades
We prefer working with smaller local companies. Teams who are on the same journey as us. They get it. They’re invested. And they send people to site who care, not just clock in.
We talk before the job starts - what makes your process easier, what order of work suits best, what materials you prefer. We’re always learning, adapting, and improving together.
We expect:
Respect and tidiness on site.
Clear and honest communication.
Quality work and a great attitude.
Reliability and professionalism.
And in return, we’ll:
Keep things organised and running smoothly.
Make space for your expertise and input.
Treat you like part of the team.
Make the job enjoyable, not just another day’s work.
What we care about
Craftsmanship
We don’t take shortcuts. We value the detail others might miss—and we notice when someone else does too.
Sustainability
We build with the long view in mind. We prefer natural, non-toxic materials and minimise waste wherever we can.
People
The right team makes all the difference. We work with people we trust—people who respect the project, the process, and each other.
Communication
Whether you’re on the tools or drawing the plans, we stay in touch and in sync—so nothing gets lost between the lines.
Let’s build something great, together.
If you’ve got a project you think we’d be a good fit for, let’s have a chat.
Whether you’re early in the design process or planning your next tender, we’re keen to connect with people who care about the end result.
And enjoy the process along the way.
