James and the team at Aoteabuild did an incredible job on my deck. They really went above and beyond in order to get it done before Christmas. Well exceeded my expectations and rate them highly. Professional, good communication and great attention to detail.
I would highly recommend James and his team for rebuild and renovation. Great communication throughout the whole work. Was very helpful regarding windows and doors replacements at my request. Saved me from having to find the right sizes due to work commitments. I was very happy with the completed work from start to finish. I will definitely be requesting their services for future work. Thanks very much to James and his team.
James and his team rebuilt my back porch .to a very high standard quickly and warm friendly team kept touch all though before during and after the build . I would highly recommend him to any one .i will differently be happy to use them again and also my landlord is very happy with the work.
Thanks James for the great work.

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 registerNever 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.
