Ahipara Top 10 Holiday Park | Northland

“We were very happy that the whole project ran within the budget and a week before the guaranteed completion date. What I would say to other holiday park owners that were considering Advance Build is to go for it, you will not regret it. It will be the best decision you make.” Holiday Park Owners Aimee & Cormac O’Keeffe.

John Hare of Russell shares his experience of building his modified Retreat 2 home with Advance Build: “I’d have to say that I haven’t experienced anything as highly organised and as well informed and as professional as we have with Advanced Build. We really like the finish – the quality of the kitchen— it’s right up there with anything you could ask for with any builder.”

Brett Mudford & Nicola Hubbard | Russell

“Advance Build was just phenomenal, really”, says Nicola. Building while overseas, Brett & Nicola needed a hassle-free solution—and Advance Build delivered. From quality finishes to a seamless process, their stunning Russell home became a reality.

“People think that transportable only means a box, and actually it doesn’t! Advance Build have a lot of different floor plans, and we had one but wanted to make some changes – which the design team were happy to make those. Everybody was just wanting to do the best for us, every call was taken, every concern we had was taken seriously, and always a solution. Totally satisfied with the final outcome, it has gone beyond any expectation that I had, and still 18 months after we’ve moved in we still feel part of the Advance Build family!

David & Tracey Panapa | Papakainga Project

“The reason I would recommend Advance Build is because they’re honest, they communicate well with people. From start to finish we knew exactly what was going on, as if we were here. I can’t praise them enough.”

Peter Sharpe | Duffus Estate

“One of the advantages of the Advance Build method of building, is that the tenants in the existing houses were not disrupted by the builders – there were no tradie’s in and out, causing problems – the method was absolutely great for us.”

Nigel & Amanda Richards | Ruatangata West

“Every problem that we’d been told we had prior, Advance Build just said – too easy! And that’s been their attitude all the way through, if you come up with an idea, they’ll incorporate it. The idea of the house being completed under a roof really appealed, we looked at another couple of houses that had been built and moved off site, but the quality of Advance Build’s was head and shoulders above the rest.”

Ivan Hauraki & Paul Jongenelen | Kaikohe

“We know that we saved ourselves about 18 months to 2 years in time. There were no obstacles whatsoever, we had a very good relationship with them. I would not hesitate to use Advance Build again. Right from the tender stage, to the contract, to completion – they deliver. They deliver in time, in budget, to the expected quality.”

Graham Priest & Lorraine Fowell | Russell

“With Advance Build, we found that we could start with a base plan and chop and change this and give it our own personal touch. The process of going through that was really really easy. We’ve recommended them since then, because of the dedication that they put into it.”

Clive Raines | Russell

“We wanted to maximise the outlook, and Advance Build were able to do some pretty amazing things such as extend the front of the house to an 8 metre opening, and add the unique outdoor courtyard to the rear of it. We were just most impressed that it was a team effort, and everyone involved wanted to ensure the product we ended up with was of the highest quality. We’re incredibly satisfied with the final outcome, I don’t think there’s anything we’d change.”

Janyse Matia & Justyn Murray | Hope House

“Throughout the entire process we felt as though Advance Build was working alongside us, every step of the way we felt like we were being heard and the things we were trying to achieve got met. It was a huge benefit for us to be able to work alongside Advance Build. Everything Advance Build promised, they delivered”

Matt & Elise Jordan | Whangaroa

“They were willing to jump outside of the box and work with us on design which was cool. We totally recommend Advance Build to friends, family, customers. It was a nice, easy way to build, with good communication, nice and fast, with a really good quality outcome.”

Keith & Sherry Smith | Kerikeri

“Everything was just made so easy for us. We enjoyed the process, and I think that’s why we’re loving the house so much – the hiccups weren’t there. We’ve had a number of people visit us and have a look our home, and they’re really impressed with what Advance Build have done.”
