Building Confidence: Why Comprehensive Project Management is Key to Successful Reclads, Renovations, and Builds in Auckland
Whether you are tackling persistent maintenance issues, planning a major home transformation, or starting a completely new construction, the complexity of managing a building project in Auckland requires deep industry knowledge and unwavering professionalism. Our philosophy hinges on combining 30 year industry experience with meticulous planning, ensuring every project, big or small, is executed to a high standard of work.
The Foundation of Success: Planning and Expertise
The critical difference between a chaotic construction process and a smooth project lies in preparation. We believe that proper upfront project planning allows for good project management, ensuring we stay on budget and on schedule. Our team provides a professional and detailed quotation, prepared by a construction estimator, enabling us to offer competitive pricing for all of your projects.
We employ a practical and creative designer, with his eye for detail and ability to foresee issues, allowing us to future proof the design. Furthermore, clients benefit from knowing that their project is handled by highly qualified staff who are all either qualified builders or tradesmen. This dedication to expertise ensures that we adhere to our philosophy of using only quality materials.
Reclads: Modernizing and Protecting Your Investment
A reclad is often a necessary step to address weather tightness or simply to bring a tired exterior into the 21st century. Retro Construction handles these significant projects with comprehensive care. We manage all essential documentation, including relevant council requirements, ensuring the pathway to the final code of compliance is clear.
While we specialize in large-scale transformations, our services also extend to crucial Insurance Claims, Maintenance, and Repairs. We are even happy to assist with “small jobs that crop up from time to time”, such as dealing with a burst water pipe or carrying out various maintenance tasks like deck repairs, gib work, painting, tiling, and carpentry work.
Renovations: Transforming the Internal Flow
Renovations are about improving daily life, whether through creating extra floor space and packing space in a small bathroom reno or completely restructuring a home.
We have a proven track record of handling extensive renovations, such as transforming a small, original 1960s brick house. This involved the tearing down of internal walls, then rebuilding and finally, the finishing touches. The result was the elimination of “poky little rooms and passages,” replaced by an open internal flow, modern kitchen and bathroom, and great outdoor flow. Whether the project is large or small—like interior renovations consisting mainly of painting, carpets and repairs—we focus on detail and functionality, utilizing our design skills to suggest improvements the client would not have thought about in a million years. Clients have found that even when working with a strict budget, we made sure everything was accounted for.
Additions and Conversions: Expanding Your Home
For homeowners needing more space, additions and conversions offer fantastic possibilities. We provide full project oversight, managing everything from the architectural designs, to consent, the build and following up on our code of compliance once the job was completed.
Examples of our expansion work include:
- A living room extension with a wrap around deck handled seamlessly from start to finish.
- The conversion of a garage into a granny flat, which was noted for its high end finishes and ability to look like a separate unit, not a flat at all. This conversion was done within a reasonable budget and at a good speed too.
The Retro Promise: Communication and Trust
A major construction project requires more than just technical skill; it demands trust and dedicated customer service. We offer an all-inclusive service package with helpful, friendly, and respectful communication. Our team kept clients well informed with everything that was happening and were even able to accommodate with our living situation with a newborn baby by ensuring the living space was not disrupted until absolutely necessary.
This commitment to integrity and quality is reflected in our “EXCELLENT” rating based on 10 reviews. We strive to deliver projects within budget and time and believe in providing exceptional support that goes above and beyond expectations.
Whether you require a full reclad, an ambitious renovation, or a major addition in East Tamaki, Auckland, or the surrounding area, Retro Construction provides the Traditional Experience/Modern Style needed for success. Request an Estimate today.
