Featured Reviews for Design & Construction Firms

Lucy G Printed Image Splashbacks
Design & Construction Firms
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 May 2014
“We are thrilled with our printed splashback in our kitchen and are so pleased we chose to work with Lucy for this. We selected an image of Lucy's that we particularly liked - a beautiful beach scape in Auckland - but we wanted to make it more generic and less identifiable as an Auckland scene, as we live in the Bay of Plenty. So after supplying us with a number of options, Lucy removed Mt Rangitoto from the background. The end result is flawless. The pohutukawa flowers in the foreground of the image are crimson and punchy, and match the other red accents in our kitchen, while the beach in the background is more subtle and muted. We are so pleased with the end result. Lucy was extremely easy to work with and had a very quick turn around on the project. We have already recommended her to many.”
Refresh Renovations Auckland West
Design & Construction Firms
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars25 September 2018
“We had our entire house remodeled by the team at DJH Renovations. The transformation was more than we hoped for and it felt like stepping back into a new house. Like any big project there were some up and downs but the DJH Renovation team got everything sorted and up to a great standard. Special thanks to Rebecca for her amazing organizational skills, Dominic for managing the process and the council, Dan the builder and team for all their hard work and attention to detail, Austin for the best tiling work I have ever seen and Ian for keeping the electrics safe and running during the renovation.”
Macreadie Builders
Design & Construction Firms
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 September 2019
“Macreadie Builders are high-end and reliable building service providers. We have worked with Macreadie Builders on a number of projects and have found them professional, clear and easy to work with. The team are a great bunch with a wealth of building knowledge between them. Every site we visit, the team are always enthusiastic about the project and aim to ensure all aspects of the build are looked after and carried out with exceptional attention to detail from beginning to end. We highly recommend Macreadie Builders to fellow trade professionals and potential prospect clients.”
Prima Build Ltd
Design & Construction Firms
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 March 2022
“Livia and Darren designed and built both of our beautiful new bathrooms. It was a stress less experience from start to finish. Livia design skills and vision took both rooms from dysfunction and wasted spaces to not only functional and beautiful but rooms we are proud to show our family and friends. We know we will enjoy them for years to come. Darren’s build and management skills enabled both rooms to be finished to the highest quality standard. The sub contractors were all respectful and true craftsman providing the level of finish that Darren expected of them.. We lived in the house throughout the renovations and was never inconvenienced by mess. We both highly recommend Prima build and will definitely employ them again with any further house renovations.”
Refresh Renovations Tauranga Cameron Ironside
Design & Construction Firms
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 April 2019
“Great job on my bathroom renovation. Every contractor who worked on the project was respectful, hard working and professional. Project did run over schedule slightly but was well worth the time. Every stage was made easy with the planning done by Cameron, and I feel he really listened to what I wanted and made it happen. Would recommend to friends and use again if ever needed.”
Refresh Renovations Tauranga - Sharon Giblett
Design & Construction Firms
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 July 2022
“We engaged the services of Sharon Giblett of Refresh Renovations Tauranga for our bathroom, ensuite and toilet renovation. From start to finish the project ran smoothly. Given Omicron landed bang in the middle of our project Sharon’s professionalism, attention to detail, and problem solving ability saw the project completed on time albeit in difficult circumstances which was an exceptional result. We cannot speak highly enough of Sharon and her contractors. The quality of the finished product has exceeded our expectations and helped realise the vision we had for those spaces. Julie and I would not hesitate to recommend others seek Sharon out if you're considering a similar project.”

“I am a member of Lifemark and they are great to work with. The system does make sense and it should be in every household. We worked with Lifemark on our Harakeke Design: Tiny 1 and Tiny 2, the team helped us to improve it to the Lifemark standards. Hope we see more new properties with Lifemark Standards in there.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 October 2019
“The completely non stressful way to do renovations. Get Refresh! Lia and her team did a great job on our ensuite - just what I wanted. This is the second time I have used Refresh - the first time involved a cost effective solution to our garage and parking issues. It is fantastic. Refresh listens and comes up with a solution based on the customer's needs and budget. Would highly recommend.”

Whether you’re building a new home or renovating, residential design and construction companies can make the process a whole lot easier. They offer everything you need to build or renovate in one place. Browse the Houzz directory below to find local design and construction companies near you!

What does a design and construction company do?


When building or renovating, people often turn to architects to kick off their project. However, a different model is becoming more popular with homeowners: design and construction, also known as design-build. Instead of hiring and dividing tasks between various professionals – e.g. architects, builders and carpenters – you can hire a design and construction firm to cover your entire project, from the initial sketches through to construction.

Companies that can carry out both design and construction take on the combined responsibilities of an architect, draftsman, construction company and additional contractors, providing one point of contact for homeowners. Having one entity responsible for the entire design and build, from estimation to subcontracting and even post-construction, streamlines and often speeds up the project significantly. Having a unified project team can also help you avoid unforeseen costs and delays in construction. In addition, the homeowner only has to interpret one contract with the design and construction firm, and not with various architectural design and contracting professionals. However, depending on the firm, you may still want to contact an interior designer or architect to help create the exact look you want.

Should I do my own project management?


Project management demands time, skills and an eye for both detail and efficiency. While many homeowners choose to manage their own projects, they can often regret their decision once the build or home improvement project is complete. Locating, hiring and eventually paying every contractor who enters the site takes time and expertise. From certifiers to roofers, and even your draftsman, a company that can undertake design and construction benefits from having all of these home professionals under one roof, saving you time and stress in the process!
