Testimonials

Amazing very professional team. We have recently completed two executive residences in Whitianga and used Ohlson and Whitelaw to carry out the construction .
We found Craig and his team extremely professional with an amazing attention to detail.
Craig and Kelly came up with many suggestions to enhance the properties and went out of their way to incorporate changes throughout the construction phase.
The finished outcome has exceeded our expectations. We are so delighted with their work, they are building two more houses for us.
I would have no hesitation in providing a verbal reference or allowing prospective clients to view the workmanship in our houses.

I am pleased to offer this reference for Ohlson & Whitelaw Builders. I employed them for my house renovation.
The work involved stripping the exterior cladding, demolition of part of the building. The house has been added on, with new decks, roof, lounge, windows, interior and exterior claddings and linings, bathrooms and kitchen alterations.
The work was very involved and a lot of thought had to be put in by the builders, as the designer had given limited detail.
Craig and his team proved to be very professional. Their workmanship is to a very high standard. They worked with me and my partner to make everything run smoothly and offered good constructive ideas along the way.
The comments we have had from many, many people is amazing. The house is now a total transformation and people don’t believe it is the same house.
I would not hesitate to use these guys again any time in the future. Any prospective client is welcome to view my house, their workmanship in my house, or feel free to contact me.

I would like to thank you for the professional and friendly manner in which you acted while building the house for me.
Right from the initial stages of viewing the site, you and your team were helpful and clear in the steps.
The house was built to the time schedule and contract price agreed. The process was smooth and the service you provided in the months after the house had been built was excellent as well.
Your team and subcontractors were also great to work with, giving advice and listening to my requirements.
The site on completion was left tidy and clean, which was a huge benefit.
I have no hesitation in recommending you and your company to other people requiring your services.
S. Parr
I found Craig Ohlson’s work very professional and the house was constructed in a relatively short time frame.
The end result was a well-built house free of any problems.
I would not hesitate in recommending Craig to anyone.
