Architectural Services

Build NZ has architects and designers who can work with you to design your build, draw up a full set of working drawings and then submit the building plans to council for building consent on your behalf.

Build NZ always recommend a fully qualified, registered architect to their clients. Why? Because good architects can translate clients’ hopes and dreams into a three-dimensional form. The architects at Build NZ work to understand the people who will use the finished building space and can visualise opportunities; they can see greater potential in a building site or renovations than you may have already seen yourselves.

Our Turnkey Design Process Explained

1

Ideas, Designs & Plans

Build NZ’s design and build consultant will come onto you building site from North Shore through to Warkworth and all areas in between, to discuss and advise the feasibility of various building options.

They will give you expert advice turning your ideas into designs to meet your budget. They will prepare your concept design and develop a design brief; ironing out design issues with practical building knowledge before building begins. You can be assured Build NZ will factor in your budget, site requirements and how your family will live in your new home.

Contracts

When the design has your approval, the team can help with setting a budget and finalising your choices of external claddings and interior fixtures and fittings and to create a full list of the estimated costs to complete the building job.

Once scheme plans, quotes and the specifications of your new home are in place, Build NZ prepares a Master Builders contract: a fixed price contract that is presented to you and your solicitor for approval and confirmation. When Build NZ agrees to a building budget, they stick to it.

Building Consents

You need to get approval granted by your local council and a building consent issued. This requires that you submit an application, pay a fee and co-ordinate all your experts to have your plans turned into the drawings to meet council requirements.
Sound like a hassle? It can be. Build NZ have the expertise to work up a full set of working drawings and lodge all your plans and specifications with council for building consent on your behalf. They can also liaise with council during construction and handle any queries they may have.
