Build Queenstown, trading name of Credmere Developments Ltd, is a residential home builder and construction company based in Queenstown, New Zealand. The company's projects range from small maintenance jobs and renovations through to building million-dollar houses, with the business built on client referrals within the Queenstown region and a focus on quality bespoke construction rather than volume.
As a full-service building company, Build Queenstown covers new home building, extensions and alterations, house renovations, and bathroom and kitchen renovations, handling design, plumbing, carpentry and electrical work as part of the process. The team is made up of skilled tradesmen, project managers and site foremen, and where subcontractors are needed, the company says it only engages tradespeople it knows and trusts.
Recent projects include a high-end residential build completed in 2023 in collaboration with Southern Architecture, delivered on time and on budget despite pandemic-era labour and material shortages, a full house renovation and extension in Fernhill involving new cladding, structural beams, a cor-ten steel kitchen extension and more, and ongoing repairs and maintenance for a long-standing client in Bendemeer.
Build Queenstown, trading as Credmere Developments Ltd, has grown its residential construction business in Queenstown largely through client referrals — a track record the company points to as evidence of the quality behind its work. Rather than chasing volume, the business describes its strength as building quality, specialising in bespoke construction, new architectural homes and renovations.
Build Queenstown positions itself as able to help with any building project, from new home construction through to extensions and alterations. Its project range spans small maintenance jobs and renovations at one end, up to million-dollar house builds at the other. The team includes skilled tradesmen, project managers and site foremen, and where subcontractors are brought in, the company says it only works with tradespeople it knows and trusts, aiming to keep the process smooth and hassle-free for clients from start to finish.
For renovations specifically, Build Queenstown has worked on a wide range of projects, both large and small, backed by a team the company describes as resourceful and dedicated. Bathroom and kitchen renovations are handled end to end — from design (either from scratch or based on a client's existing plans) through to removing and disposing of old units, and installing new plumbing, carpentry and electrical work.
Three recent projects give a sense of the range of work Build Queenstown takes on. A high-end residential build, completed in 2023 in collaboration with Southern Architecture, was delivered on time and on budget despite pandemic-related labour and material shortages and cost increases — the finished home has since been made available as a show home for prospective clients to view by arrangement.
A full house renovation and extension in Fernhill involved stripping the interior completely: replacing two bathrooms, adding a new cor-ten steel clad kitchen extension, re-cladding the exterior, installing new structural beams, decking, roof, interior paint, carpet, double-glazed windows, a new carport, and hard landscaping. The company says the project was delivered to the highest standard using only the best materials and tradespeople.
A third project reflects the maintenance side of the business: years of repair and upkeep work for the owners of a home in Bendemeer, covering repairs, repainting, new joinery installations, and subcontractor management, keeping the property in good condition through well-scheduled maintenance.
Across its services, Build Queenstown lists building a dream home from a client's own plans, working with clients to design a home suited to their needs, altering or extending an existing home, renovating kitchens and bathrooms, maintaining and repairing existing properties, and constructing decking and outdoor landscaping.
