OUR TEAM

© Copyright 2022 Build7 New Zealand

Build7 are changing the game, with a streamlined approach to the entire process, from concept to completion. You will receive a custom designed home  from our team of in-house architects, and you will be able to see a complete costed breakdown of your build. Transparency and building custom designed homes is important to us, and we know that budget considerations, structured timelines, and excellent communication is important to you. Build7 Canterbury operates alongside our experienced Construction Office to deliver exceptional homes, and exceptional service. 

What Build7 clients love most is our personal and targeted approach that guides clients through the entire build journey, and our network of quality local builders. What sets us apart however, is our streamlined systems and our experience. The building game has changed, and with a highly organised and hands on system we are on a mission to improve the way architectural houses are built in and around Canterbury.

HOUSE & LAND PACKAGES

While we do not offer house and land packages in the traditional sense, we work hard to identify existing and up coming land opportunities, and can provide assistance to people looking for investment builds, first homes, holiday houses and more standardised houses. Our architectural team, our interior design services, and the journey to completion is the same. Our hands on approach means each person who chooses to build with us is more than just a number. We are on a mission to improve all new homes, we know simple tricks that offer the feeling of added space, extra light, and modern living. We work with premium materials, and we are proud of the many examples of Build7 homes around Christchurch that use creativity and design flair to maximise tricky sections, hill sites , and distant views. Find out more about our approach to house and land when you download our brochure. 

Canterbury is a great place to build a new home. With parcels of reasonably priced land available, and our Construction Office located close by in Christchurch, our team can provide a seamless journey to new home ownership.

Using the support and systems of the national team and combining a local approach to everything we do, your new home will be designed to your individual requirements. We don't build the same home twice, and with your needs in mind, we take you on the journey from architectural design, visual concepts, right through to delivery and beyond, with our 10 year Master Build Guarantee.

CANTERBURY

Our region is a little extra special, and so too are the homes we design and build for our area. With a focus on creating healthy homes that are easy to heat and maintain, that weather well, and that capture impressive views in all directions, every design is unique. We know the great outdoors plays a large part in your life and we will make sure your home building experience allows you to have as minimal impact on the planet possible. Whatever your preferences, from a full passive style build, to a simple electric car charging system in the garage, our qualified  team will help create a home that works in harmony with your lifestyle. 

1. START FROM SCRATCH
 
We do not build the same home twice. Your plans will be customised to suit your budget, and your floor plan wish list. Starting with a blank piece of paper, the experienced Build7 team will work with you to understand your objectives; what you like, what you don't like, and what you will not compromise on.
2. OUR DESIGN TEAM
 
Following your discussions with the local Build7 team, your design brief will be sent off to our in-house architects, based in our Construction Office. With your budget in mind, a floor plan is put together for you. 
3. BACK TO YOU
 
This is the exciting part. We present you with a concept based on your requirements, and the section(s) you would like within the Queenstown area. After a few changes here and there, it's back to the design team to bring your plans to life with a real look render of your proposed home. 
4. PRICING AND SPECIFICATION
 
You have seen the plans, and the renders showing you exactly what your home would look and feel like. Now it's time for specifications and pricing so you can work out how much you will have left over for any optional upgrades to fixtures, fittings, landscaping and furnishings.
5. GOING TO CONTRACT
 
Only once you have agreed on the plan and seen the final list of specifications, and all pricing, will your plan go to the next stage. Build7 are so confident in our transparent process that we don't require any payment for your design stage, instead we focus on creating a house that will really work for you.  
6. BREAKING GROUND
 
When your deposit is paid, the Build7 Construction Office will become your main point of contact throughout the process. Keeping you informed and updated, they will project manage the entire build so you can enjoy the fun parts like working with your interior design team, while they take care of the rest. 
7. MOVE IN DAY
 
"I can't describe to you what that feeling was like. After weeks visiting the site and seeing the final stages come together it seemed like everyone was racing to the finish line while we waltzed through choosing what colour rugs and cushions we wanted. The whole process was completely different to what I had expected, it was actually really fun. We were both grateful to have the support, and excited by the level of enthusiasm going into our project from all corners. Thank you so much for helping us realise this goal, and creating a home for us to live in that exceeds all our expectations. I highly recommend Build7, from our first meeting, until move in day, and beyond that, we have been overwhelmed at the genuine level of service and care that the team has shown us." 
Katie Walsh - Build7

We do not ask for a financial commitment until you are completely happy with your designs, and we go to the next stage. Until then our focus remains on understanding what you want out of your home, what you love, and what you are not willing to compromise on. 

“As first home buyers we feel very lucky to have come across Build7. They went above and beyond throughout the whole experience, including pushing to get us in to our house just before Christmas. Thanks to Build7 we now have a beautiful home and cannot recommend these guys more highly. We can’t wait to build another home with Build7 in the future.”
Letitia Wilson, Lincoln

Tony joined the Build7 team with a background in finance: "I could see the hands on approach offered by the Build7 team and could understand the impact it was having on everyday people wanting to build a home. I recognise a need for more support, more transparency, and a more customised build". 

Nick and his wife Sarah are former clients of Build7:  "Having built our own family home with Build7, and loving the process, the product and the people, we jumped at the opportunity to create the same dream experience for others in and around North Canterbury".

NICK HOFFMAN

Nick knows each corner of this region very well and he loves working in his own big beautiful backyard. His passion is to help everyday people understand what is possible through creative design and helping to create architectural homes that are on budget and on time.
