Ian Chamberlain is one of those rare professionals who does the job exactly as he said he would, in the time he would, for the price he would. He has built entire houses for my companies and done some simple alterations all with a cheerful smile. I would hire him and his team again and again.

Having been let down by another builder we had 2 weeks to get a portion of our job complete before we hosted a gathering of 70 people at our home.

With no stress at all, Ian worked miracles with the aluminium joinery suppliers and with his own work and we were ready for our 70 guests when we needed to be.

It was a simple pleasure working with Ian.

Instead of just asking me what I wanted doing with certain things on the job and expecting me to know – cos I didn’t – he would give me several very intelligent well thought out options to choose from – brilliant –a builder who thinks like his client!!!

An eye for detail and practical thought as to how things will be when actually in use, to me are invaluable.

The work is to the highest standard and the time taken to complete the work totally reasonable.

I one hundred percent recommend that you go with these guys for your job – you’ll love the experience and the outcome.

Hello. We recently had cabinetry built and installed into our holiday house in Kinloch (near Taupo). Ian Chamberlain did the work for us. We wanted to document how thrilled we were with the management of the job and the installed work that Ian provided. Ian exceeded our expectations in both his interpretation of what my wife was trying to achieve and the quality of the installed work.

The care that his tradesmen took from placing cover sheets on carpeted areas and furniture to the quality of the finished job was fantastic. The price Ian quoted was competitive, and the job was invoiced at the quoted priced.

We would be pleased to recommend Ian Chamberlain Carpenters, to any prospective homeowner that is seeking a quality job. Well done, thank you.

I have to say that the level of professionalism shown by your staff has been extraordinary. I have had the pleasure of the company of Mark but more so Dave who has shown a sense of pride in what he is doing with a difficult old building. He has on every occasion been a pleasure to have working in our home and Mark and I have been impressed with his thoughtfulness, consideration, workmanship and tidiness.

Ian built a 73 square metre deck and stairway on the front of my house in Bernard Street in Taupo in December 2006, you can see it from the lakefront and probably from space! Also, Ian replaced the kitchen benchtops in the same house soon after.

I have been thoroughly impressed with Ian's and his employee's work ethic, coordination with other contractors, ongoing dialogue with myself and my partner as to work in progress and above all craftsmanship.

I can recommend Ian to anyone considering a building or joinery project.Ian built a 73 square metre deck and stairway on the front of my house in Bernard Street in Taupo in December 2006, you can see it from the lakefront and probably from space!

I have known Ian Chamberlain for fourteen years and during this time he has done many building projects for me including building last year (2018) the house I am now living in, which is an excellent building built to the highest standards. Throughout the planning, design and construction Ian supervised the whole development liaising with the architect, the council planning committee and the suppliers. He has advised on the choice of plaster, roofing, outside colour scheme, doors and windows, underfloor heating system and the lift system.

I would recommend Ian for any building and carpentry work and would give Ian Chamberlain Building and Carpentry five star status.

In June 2019 we commissioned Chamberlain Carpentry and Joinery to renovate our 2001 built home. It was a major undertaking involving recladding, reinsulating, new doors and windows and reconfiguration and updating of the interior. Not only was the workmanship excellent but the team were always polite, hard-working and a pleasure to work with. A big positive was Ian's communication skills before, during and after the project was completed. His communication with us and his team prevented misunderstanding and we felt we were all on the same wavelength.

 We would happily work with Ian and his team again.
