Finished living space by a Certified Builder in Whakatāne

Home / Approach

New homes and existing houses. Site, budget, Building Act.

A Whakatāne builder, not a franchise

Local since 2009.

Hamish completed his apprenticeship in Ōpōtiki, then moved to Whakatāne. Galloway Builders was established in 2009.

We still work the Eastern Bay — Whakatāne, Ōhope, Ōpōtiki and Te Puke. Certified Builder and Licensed Building Practitioner. HALO 10-year residential guarantee insurance is available on the work.

Consent sits with Whakatāne District Council for most of this run, and with the right council when the site is further out. We handle that when the Act requires it.

How a job runs

1

Sit down

Walk the site. Talk about what you want, what you can spend, and what the ground and the structure will allow.

2

Scope and price

A written scope, a price that matches it, and a clear list of what is still unknown.

3

Consent

New homes need it. Many renovations do too. We handle the council work when the Act requires it, and we say so when it does not.

4

Build

Hamish and the team on site, with local subcontractors who already know how we finish.

5

Handover

A house you can live in, paperwork in order, HALO 10-year guarantee insurance available on the work.
