Remedial Exterior Moisture Work - retrofit window and door, concrete deck

Other (Building) Tawa, Wellington

Fantastic builders! Can't recommend Pena and the QA crew highly enough. They are extremely professional, friendly and communicative. All work was completed to a high standard and Pena provided thorough documentation. Great attention to detail and safety as well. All work was done at a fair price. Highly recommend!

We are very happy with the work completed by the team. They were flexible, professional, and carefully considered all of our requirements throughout. They completed all of our cladding work to a high standard, and the painting work was also done professionally. Aston was our key contact, and all staff members were friendly, skilled, and easy to work with. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality workmanship and reliable service.

Bryan assessed and priced up this work accurately. He did a great job fixing what was required and was on time and let me know when he had finished.will definitely engage with him again. This job is perfect for Builderscrack as it was small but still required skill builder to complete

Replace cladding at ground level & add vents

New Cladding Wellington Central, Wellington

5.0

Mixed review of this company. The guys were good but there was not much discussion or flexibility of options. They have a very straightforward process which is not the right fit for a character home with unusual issues. I usually get trades who continuously discuss with me throughout the process. Hayden barely showed up and the guys weren’t authorised to make their own decisions despite their capabilities. Just the wrong trades for me.

Deck addition behind a unit

Decking & Pergolas Karori, Wellington

Excellent work and very friendly and communicative. Some minor delays etc due to illness and materials but perfectly reasonable. Finishing was solid given the deck is an odd shape and they did a great job adapting the plan to fit.

Zac was responsive and did a near excellent job. Could have carried part or advised earlier as required special trip to get duct. Professional installation, however the joinery was ok but gaps bigger than expected.

January 2026 - Finishing garage and attic

Other (Building) Kelburn, Wellington

5.0

Over the last 10 years I have completed 4 large building projects (new builds, renovations, retaining walls - all requiring building consent) and worked in that time with about 10 different builders & building companies. Kingsbury & Veitch were by far the best: the detail in every aspect of their work, the superb (and unusual) knowledge of the building code, the reliability in showing up and finally the flexibility to adapt to unforeseen circumstances. I very much enjoyed working with them.

Install made to measure double glazed windows

Joinery Installation Crofton Downs, Wellington

4.0

Reuben's actual work was good, and when at the site he worked hard. His contractors were also hardworking. Sadly Reuben's attendance at the site was a recurring problem. He had an over-optimistic plan for working around other jobs. He was frequently absent on days he had promised to be there, and the excuses became less and less credible as the months went on.

James competed two relatively small renovations for us consisting of the installation of new lining and a glass door in the bathroom and removal of a internal wall connecting the lounge and a sunroom and raising of the floor in the sunroom utilising the existing timber floorboards.
