Wellington Builders Ltd is a Wellington building company with more than 25 years in business, based at 11 Pickering Street in Kaiwharawhara. As Registered Master Builders, the team takes on new home building, renovations and alterations throughout the Wellington region, working with homeowners from the city and its many surrounding suburbs.
Their building services cover the full life of a home: new homes built from your house plans, whole-home renovations, kitchen and bathroom renovations, house extensions and alterations, and leaky home repair. Alongside the building work itself, they provide full project management on architectural homes and renovations, and their online gallery of previous projects offers ideas and a look at the quality of their craft.
The company's work has been recognised repeatedly at the Registered Master Builders Association's House of the Year awards, judged regionally each year with winners advancing to national competition. In 2005 the company collected seven regional Wellington awards in a single day, took regional bronze in 2006, and in 2012 won gold in the Nulook Builder's Own Home Award and was named a national finalist.
Wellington Builders Ltd serves a wide slice of the capital, with listed service areas including Kaiwharawhara, Karori, Johnsonville, Miramar, Newtown, Island Bay, Thorndon, Wellington City and many more. Enquiries can be made through the website form or by phone during weekday hours — Monday to Thursday 7:30am–5:00pm and Friday 7:30am–4:30pm.
For more than 25 years, Wellington Builders Ltd has been helping Wellingtonians build and improve their homes. Based at 11 Pickering Street in Kaiwharawhara, the company takes on new home construction, renovations and alterations across the Wellington region, working with clients from the city and its surrounding suburbs.
The team are Registered Master Builders — a distinction that matters when you're entrusting someone with what is likely the biggest investment of your life. It also means their work is regularly put up for judgment: every year the Registered Master Builders Association holds the country's most prestigious commercial and residential building awards, judged at regional level, with regional winners advancing to national competition. Wellington Builders Ltd has entered — and won — repeatedly.
The company's awards history tells the story. In 2005 alone, Wellington Builders Ltd collected seven regional Wellington awards at the Registered Master Builders House of the Year awards, including the Origin Structural Assurance Award, a category win and a gold in the Nulook Builder's Own Home Award, a silver in the PlaceMakers Renovation Award over $250,000, and bronzes in both the New Homes $200,000–$300,000 and PlaceMakers Renovation up to $250,000 categories.
The wins continued beyond that bumper year. In 2006 the company took the regional bronze award in the New Homes $250,000–$350,000 category, and in 2012 it earned gold in the Nulook Builder's Own Home Award and went on to be named a national finalist. For the team, entering the awards is about more than silverware — it's a chance to have their best homes scrutinised by industry experts, challenging their building practices and pushing them to keep growing as craftspeople.
The company's core work spans the full life of a home. For those starting fresh, they build new homes throughout Wellington, turning house plans into finished results. For existing homeowners, they carry out home renovations of every scale, from whole-house transformations to targeted kitchen and bathroom renovations. House extensions and alterations are another specialty, adding space and reworking existing homes.
When something has gone wrong, the team also takes on leaky home repair — a demanding area of building that calls for genuine expertise in weathertightness.
Alongside the building itself, Wellington Builders Ltd provides full project management on architectural homes and renovations, giving clients a single point of accountability from start to finish. If you want a sense of what that looks like in practice, the company's online gallery showcases previous house alterations, property renovations and new home builds — a useful source of ideas and a demonstration of the quality of the work.
