What our clients say

Built with heart, surrounded by nature – Old State Highway One

Wendy and Steve came to Elevation Homes looking for more than just a house, they wanted a peaceful home that reflected who they were and how they wanted to live. From the first design chats to handover day, Elevation guided them through every step, keeping the process simple, transparent, and personal.

This build wasn’t just about four walls and a roof. It was about early mornings on-site, decisions made with care, and a home crafted to fit beautifully into its rural setting. Wendy and Steve were involved in every key moment, supported by a team that treated the build like it was their own.

“What you see is what you get, they were very transparent”

“they genuinely wanted to help, and if anything was worrying us, they would want to know about it”

“I was incredibly impressed with the work they did putting our home together”

“One of the things that I was a bit reluctant of with Elevation Homes was that they are a smaller company, but I think that actually is a massive strength of theirs. It does mean that you get really personal one-on-one treatment.”

Compact, calm, & very cleverly designed – Paraparaumu beach

This coastal build in Paraparaumu Beach was all about thoughtful design in a compact footprint. The homeowners wanted a home that felt peaceful, modern, and easy to live in — without compromising on flow or natural light.

Elevation Homes worked closely with them to bring this vision to life, managing every step of the journey from planning to handover. The design made the most of a tight site, with smart use of space, raked ceilings for added height, and large sliders opening out to private outdoor living. Throughout the build, the team stayed focused on quality craftsmanship, communication, and making sure the process felt smooth and collaborative.

Now complete, 12A Percival Road stands as a simple, elegant home — proving that great design doesn’t need to be big to make a big impact.

“They’ve got a really nice feel about them. They almost make you part of their family.”

“It was a really positive process with them. I’d quite like to say they’re friends now!”

“You’re not one of 20 people that they’re building for, they’re generally only building for two people at a time and you feel like you’re getting heard when you’re asking questions.”

“You paid as you went, so it wasn’t as if you had to make a huge outlay of payment. As things were done and ticked off, you then paid for them so that felt really secure for me”

Elevation Homes have been outstanding to work with from start to finish – Kapiti Views

“Our building journey started with a simple phone call while we were still looking for a section. Dayna was incredibly helpful at that early stage, offering practical advice and guidance before we had even committed to building. From there, the experience only got better.

We chose Elevation Homes for their reputation for quality and high-specification finishes, and they lived up to our expectations. The craftsmanship is excellent throughout, and Jeremy Clegg’s design at Topcat has created a beautiful home that perfectly suits our lifestyle.

Regan and Dayna lead a small, hands-on team, and that really showed in the way our build was managed. Communication was clear and honest, and we always felt informed. The project stayed generally on budget, and any variations were clearly flagged and costed in a timely way, so there were no surprises.
A particularly poor winter made the timeline challenging, especially as we were aiming to be in before Christmas. Despite the weather setbacks, the team pulled out all the stops to make it happen, and we really appreciated their effort and commitment during that period.

After moving in, any small snags were dealt with promptly and without fuss. The fact that we’ve maintained such a positive relationship with Elevation Homes post-build really speaks volumes about their integrity and the pride they take in their work.

We were thrilled that our home went on to win a Master Builders regional category award – Elevation Homes’ first award – which is a testament to the quality of their work and the strength of the whole team involved.

We would not hesitate to recommend Elevation Homes to anyone looking to build a high-quality, carefully crafted home with a builder they can genuinely trust.”

I really appreciate their ongoing care and support throughout the entire process – Kohekohe Project

“I recently built my new home in Waikanae, and they were a massive help right from the start with the design phase. I have a fantastic view from my section, and they designed the layout perfectly to capture it, incorporating beautiful large windows.

The builders on-site were excellent to deal with, always friendly, professional, and great to have around.

Just as importantly, their after-build service has been fantastic. Any minor issues that naturally arose after I moved in were rectified promptly and without any hassle.”
