I would absolutely build with them again in the future
Monique
I built with Classic Builders in 2022, one of their House & Land packages, and the experience was fantastic! They provided a detailed schedule outlining when each stage would be completed, and if there were any changes they communicated them promptly and clearly.
The entire process, from kitchen design and color selection to working with the electrician and other sub-contractors, was smooth. Everyone was on the same page, which made it easy for us to enjoy the process of adding personal touches to our home.
I would absolutely build with them again in the future. I had a wonderful experience with the WBOP team!
We were thrilled with our new home
Jeannette
I have been very impressed with Classic Builders and working with Richard Cockerill in building our home. Richard has a very efficient and supportive manner in all our dealings. Richard was very patient with us and explained clearly the process at each stage of our build and answered many many questions. We were thrilled with our new home and were very pleased with the result.
Gave us great advice on building our house
Clare
We love our Classic's house and appreciate the team for being available and friendly in answering all of our many questions! We highly recommend Classic Builders - they get the job done on time, to a high quality and really gave us great advice on building our house. Thanks, Classic!
All work was overseen and completed to the highest of standards
Louise
We enjoyed a positive experience with Classic Builders in Katikati and in particular, Shona and Richard who worked well to meet our needs for a new home. Communication was excellent and Richard ensured that all work was overseen and completed to the highest of standards. One year on since we moved in and we continue to enjoy our beautiful home and have no hesitation in recommending Classic Builders to others.
CLASSIC CLIENTS
Rachel Ratana I House & Land
“Throughout the process, we kept thinking it was all too easy - the progression from one stage to the next was seamless. Honestly? We were trying to be realistic and aware that something might crop up. But it never did.”
Nelly Grey I Design & Build
"Essentially, I look back, and I was going to these Auctions to houses that were smaller and way older and way more expensive, so I’m just so grateful that I explored and eventually went down the path of Design & Build."
Michelle Oldfield I Design & Build
"The overall experience was so simple. I would build again in a heartbeat and do exactly the same thing. My advice to anyone wanting to build with Classic Builders is go with the flow, relax, take it easy, it’s honestly a dream."
