Far North Home Renovation Building Company

Home renovations are exciting and, at Refresh, we want to keep it that way. By prioritising thorough planning from the outset, we stay ahead of the challenges and obstacles that can occur with any project. Stopping problems before they start allows us to focus on results and make sure homeowners enjoy a stress-free renovation experience.  
Two catalysts for renovations going off the rails are miscommunication and poor management. The 5-step Refresh approach addresses these issues head-on by utilising our Renovation Consultants as a single point of contact, bridging the gap between homeowners and the team behind their renovation. 
From ideation to execution, an experienced Renovation Consultant will be by your side. They’ll guide you through the early stages of creating bespoke designs, setting a budget, and managing expectations, enabling you to feel supported and well-informed while making important decisions.   

“Totally professional approach from initial engagement right through to the completion of the work. It was such a weight off my shoulders with Refresh doing everything. This has been the only renovation I've had done that has been stress-free. Everything was managed extremely efficiently and was respectful of my needs. I would and already have recommended Refresh to my friends and would certainly engage with Refresh again if I carry out any further renovations.” — Refresh client, Tony Mottram

Living up to its ‘Winterless North’ moniker, the Far North has one of New Zealand’s most desirable climates, making it an ideal spot for locals and holidaymakers alike. The country’s oldest stone house is located in Kerikeri, but those lucky enough to snap up any Far North property know that even new builds can require a little work.
Luckily, our Far North Renovation Consultants are locals, so whether you’re looking to expand your lifestyle block with a house extension or granny flat, or undertake a bathroom renovation to spruce up your beachside bach, we’ve got you covered. And the advantages of local knowledge don’t stop there. 
An important aspect of any renovation is adhering to the appropriate council regulations and obtaining the necessary permits. Sometimes this involves site visits from inspectors or members of the council. If you don’t live in the area, no worries! Your Renovation Consultant does and will be available to manage all activities on-site, on your behalf.

“Refresh guided me and navigated through the whole process of architect's assessment, surveyor's report, and DA application over the last half a year. Considering I do not live nearby, the team was extremely helpful and did many things on my behalf, such as council visits. They often organise online meetings with me and other relevant parties to discuss important matters. I felt relaxed and trusting when dealing with Refresh. Highly recommend.” — Refresh client Jifu Xing
