About

Queenstown born and bred, John has been building in Queenstown for over 32 years. Since starting his apprenticeship in 1981 under the watchful eye of the craftsmen of Inder Construction, John has been dedicated to the building industry.

The relative isolation, climate and terrain of the Queenstown area can provide unique challenges. John and his team have a wealth of experience, local knowledge and the skill required to make your dream a reality. We are genuine builders that love what we do. We are in it because we love it, are exceptional at it and want to build a house for the owners to enjoy and for us to be proud of. Yes, we win awards, we are very proud of these, but most importantly to us is that our customers are happy. Our approachability means you can talk to us about any project small or large. We are honest, reliable and listen. 

John works alongside his team. This daily hands on approach ensures your job will get his full attention and will be built to the highest quality. We encourage early participation so we can help owners and designers in efficient construction methods in all aspects of their projects. We also have the flexibility and ability to meet any requirements that are presented to us.

With the depth of knowledge in our team there has not been a project or challenge we can’t handle. Communication during the construction process is vital to a smooth and enjoyable build. John has the ability to liaise with Architects, Engineers, Clients and Consultants on an individual basis. This provides a seamless transition from the drawing board to the building site, and minimises the stress whether clients are at a distance of around the corner. Over the last 32 years we have created very strong relationships with the best local tradespeople and suppliers.

Our team are all fully qualified tradesmen… what does that mean? They have gone through apprenticeships to develop the technical and practical skills needed to build your home. Combine this with the desire to achieve a craftsman like finish, it is a team that knows what they are doing, can think on their feet and have the ability to problem solve if necessary. Our team would not be complete without mentioning our Office Manager. She ensures records are kept up to date, processes are followed, invoices and payments are on time and any queries are dealt with promptly and efficiently. We all pride ourselves on our workmanship and professional business practices. We are very proud of our team, they are all great individuals that are always approachable and willing!

"This is a build of international presence, by a builder who clearly takes pleasure in his work.  The design of this home required a builder of extraordinary skill, in both domestic and commerical architecture."
Judges Master Build HOY 2014
"The reason we selected John as our builder in the first place was his track record of quality workmanship and also the fact that he was committed to being personally on site throughout the build. His team evidenced the same high standards and the end result is a home that has met all our expectations. John as a person is a pleasure to deal with and has always been very professional in his approach and interactions with us."
Peter and Susan, Owners
