Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Detailed reviews

Karlene5.0 / 5 ·

I have hired Denis and his crew on more than one occasion, the most recent being after the big storms we had here in Wellington and my roof needed attending to. I have always been extremely happy with the consistency of workmanship carried out by his crew. The installation of my kitchen went in without a hitch and structural changes which required re-gibbing ceiling etc. Look forward to hiring them again.

We haven't started our reconstruction yet as we are still waiting for council consent however this rating is based on advice provided by Denis up to Jan 07. He's been very open with us & provided good advice & even helped with additional quotes. A good kiwi bloke!

Worth checking yourself

No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.

Restricted building work in New Zealand must be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner. Confirm they hold a current LBP licence - and check their licence class and any disciplinary history - on the LBP public register before you hire.

Check the LBP register
Never pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
