Oliver
DIRECTOR
It is evident that building and property are a huge passion for Oliver. He’s put in the hard yards, jumping straight into his building apprenticeship at just 17. Fully qualified at 21 years old, Oliver moved onto running his own sites and teams. He brings 14 years of experience in high end residential building, a like-minded team of builders and the dedication to bring the life and character back to beautiful homes within Auckland.
“Behind every great building company is a team of great builders but when it comes to selecting new builders to join our team, it’s far from an easy process. Not every qualified builder has the same experience and knowledge as the next. The things that I value most when selecting new builders are creativity and ability to think outside the box. Punctuality, strong communication skills and presentation will also go a really long way. Lastly problem solving is a huge part of our every day life and helps to maintain the smooth running of our sites and strong relationships with clients, sub trades and suppliers.”

Sam has also been in the game for more than 10 years and has done some amazing work during that time - recently he spent a couple years in some of the most remote areas of Australia building aboriginal homes! Although Sam’s quite the catch, we are hoping his son plans on following in his footsteps because he’s already getting a lot of attention over here on Instagram!
