What We Do

Building and Project Managing in the City, Hutt Valley, Porirua and Kapiti Coast.

Architectural Homes
We have experience building architectural new builds for ourselves and our clients. We understand the process inside out and we appreciate the value of working with skilled professionals to maximize your new home's potential. Whether you bring your own architect or look to us for a recommendation, it's great to get your architect and builder working together early in the process so you can benefit from our practical advice on cost, comfort and longevity.

Renovations and Extensions
We have extensive experience in renovations and extensions at J.Grae Building. Whether you are looking to replace damp old window frames or soggy weatherboards, or you are wanting to add that much needed third bedroom or a second bathroom, we've done it before. Our expertise will limit surprises and ensure your renovation or extension runs as smoothly and efficiently as possible.

Kitchens and Bathrooms
A kitchen or bathroom renovation is often all that's needed to modernise your home. J.Grae Building has experience with innovative kitchen and bathroom designs and materials. We're not afraid to try something new. From waterfall concrete benches and native timber cabinetry to striking glass and wallpaper splashbacks we'll give anything a go. Let us help you bring your ideas to life.

Restoration
At J.Grae Building we have the experience to get the old school details right while working with a mix of old and new school technologies. Working within historical covenants? We can help. Extending your beautiful existing Kauri floor boards? We can do that. Old double hung sash windows in need of repair? We've done it. We love to do a restoration right. We will work with you to find the right fixtures, fittings and finishes to restore your home to its former glory while making the most of modern technologies like underfloor heating and double glazing.
