About

Hegarty Building offers residential building excellence to Mount Maunganui and Tauranga. We achieve excellence by successfully collaborating with homeowners and trusted architects and sub-contractors, for the seamless integration of design and construction of new builds, renovations and additions.

Hegarty Building is a family-owned construction company that operates in the Bay of Plenty region. Hegarty Building maintains the highest standards in the building industry and implements leading-edge construction methods, tools and materials.

Our proud and motivated team strive to deliver projects on time, within budget, and to a high standard of quality that we, and the homeowners, can be proud of.

Rob’s building career started in Ireland in 2000, where he gained his carpentry and joinery qualification after four years of study. Since landing on New Zealand shores, Rob has become a Licenced Building Practitioner (LBP) and a registered Master Builder.

In Ireland, Rob quickly climbed the ladder from apprentice to site foreman for a construction company that undertook a diverse range of building projects – new home builds, bespoke architectural homes, heritage building restoration, and large scale residential developments. Rob gained extensive experience in an array of carpentry techniques and building materials – the foundation of his solid carpentry knowledge.

Seeking a new challenge, Rob moved to Queensland, Australia, in 2009 and established a two-man construction team that built cyclone-proof new builds, renovations and additions.

In 2016, Rob followed his partner, Monique, back to New Zealand where they settled in Mount Maunganui and established Hegarty Building Ltd.

Hegarty Building is a proud member of the Registered Master Builder Association, New Zealand’s largest construction industry association. The Registered Master Builders represent highly qualified professional builders who pride themselves on delivering the highest quality houses and buildings.

Having this mark next to our name means quality assured. It also means that during your new build or renovation you have access to the Master Build 10-Year Guarantee.

What is the Master Build 10-Year Guarantee?

It is the market-leading guarantee that has been protecting homes for over 25 years. Most building projects run smoothly, but sometimes things do go wrong. The Guarantee provides a process to resolves any issues that may occur during your build, and for the next 10 years. It provides much greater protection than both the Building Act and the Consumer Guarantees Act.

Testimonials

Rob and the Hegarty team have been an invaluable part of our house build. We took on a serious challenge of fully gutting a 1960’s brick Beazley style home and addingon a new 85m2 extension. This was not a straight forward build. As with many renovations of old houses you’ll find issues crop up that you couldn’t foresee. We did a lot of DIY at first and Rob was constantly on-hand to give us up-to-date advice to overcome these issues and keep us in-line with the building code. Then Rob and the team carried out the more skilled building tasks. This included attaching GIB, building new ceiling structure, installing joinery and building us a beautiful deck!

We are very happy with the efficient and skilled work Rob and the boys carried out for us and would definitely use them again in a heart-beat.

Renovation and addition
Rob has carried out many projects for us. From the building of our dream home through to internal renovation of a commercial building. My partner, Miles Everton (a licenced builder for 40 years) was astounded by Rob’s building pace and building knowledge. 

Homeowners underestimate how important it is to have a good relationship with their builder! They are in your lives for nearly a year, so you want someone who is not only competent and trustworthy but that is easy to get along with. Rob is this person, fantastic to deal with, a laid back honest guys with a great Irish wit.

We are very happy with our house and all the other projects Rob and the skilled Hegarty team have carried out for us. Rob and his partner Monique are great to work with and we know they will become integral players in the Bay of Plenty building industry!
