Frequently asked questions
Do you only work in Rotorua, or can you cover nearby areas too?
We’re Rotorua-based and regularly work across the wider Bay of Plenty and Central North Island (including Tauranga, Whakatāne, Taupō, Hamilton and Auckland). Most estimating can be completed remotely, with site visits when required.

What do you need from me to start a Rotorua estimate or cost plan?
Ideally: drawings (even concept), specification/finish schedule if you have it, and any geotech or site info. If you’re early stage, we can still start using assumptions and allowances and tighten the numbers as the design progresses.

Can you help with renovations and interior alterations in Rotorua?
Yes. We can measure existing layouts, price demolition/reinstatement, and build a clear scope with exclusions so you can compare quotes properly and reduce “surprises” once the wproject begins.

How do you make sure the estimate reflects real Rotorua build costs?
We use measured quantities, first-principles rate build-ups where needed, and local market rates (trade packages, supplier pricing and benchmark rates) so it’s not just a generic $/m² guess.

Do you allow for Rotorua ground conditions and siteworks (geotech, cut/fill, drainage)?
Yes. Where site information is limited, we include clear provisional allowances for earthworks, retaining, drainage and any geotech-driven requirements, then firm those up once reports and engineering details are available so the budget doesn’t get blindsided later.
