Weathertightness repairs and recladding, working alongside specialist engineers.
We have specialist skills and contacts in weathertightness remediation and recladding. We help people who have been let down by poor workmanship or planning issues in the past, and we work alongside specialist engineers to put things right.
Taking old cladding off often uncovers problems nobody could see before. We raise them with you early and repair them properly before the new cladding goes on.
From a leaking ensuite to a full reclad of a three level home.
Weathertightness remediation for homes that let water in, with specialist engineers.
Old cladding off, hidden damage fixed, new cladding on, like the bungalow we re-clad in Conifer Grove.
Replacing failed cladding, like the deteriorated plywood panels on a three level home.
Rot and decay behind the cladding are found and repaired before the new cladding goes on.
Leaking ensuite? We check, quote and manage every trade on site.
New cladding often comes with new exterior stairs, like the leaky home we repaired in Waihi Beach.
Work that keeps the weather out is restricted building work, so it must be done by a Licensed Building Practitioner.
Hidden rot or decay is often only found once the old cladding comes off. Keep a buffer in your budget for it.
Some owners stay in the house, others move out. A reclad is disruptive, so talk it through with us before you decide.
As NZ Certified Builders members we can offer one of the most complete 10 year guarantees on the market. It is run independently, and it moves to the new owner if you sell within 10 years.
The builders were innovative and open minded to various methods of repair notwithstanding that the methods utilised needed to be out of the ordinary.
We had a large, leaky house in Waihi Beach which could have been such a stressful project, but wasn’t because of Chris’s determination to make sure we were kept well informed.
The completed project brought the home back to a better than original condition.
You do for restricted building work. That is any work that involves or affects:
Most building work needs a building consent. We can tell you whether your project needs one or could be exempt.
A fixed price gives you more certainty up front. On a reclad some items still can’t be priced until the old cladding is off, like hidden rot in a wall, so we mark those clearly in the quote.
Sometimes. During one cladding repair on a three level home the owners lived in the house the whole time, even though access to parts of the building was through the home. It depends on your house and the work, so we talk it through with you first.
Tell us what is going on and we will come back to you with an estimate.
