Good buildings are built on good relationships.
BH Construction is a team of builders, quantity surveyors, project managers and office support, with specialist subcontractors working to our programme. We work across Auckland, Mangawhai and Whangārei.
Ben Holwerda
Ben founded BH Construction and has led the team for more than 20 years. His focus is getting the details right, and keeping everyone on the job engaged with them from start to finish.
The thinking behind the building.
Understanding design intent
We read the drawings for what they are trying to achieve, and hold that intent throughout the build.
Planning construction
We price what is actually drawn and plan the sequence before work starts, so problems surface on paper rather than on site.
Communication
The architect and client are involved at every principal stage of the project.
Attention to detail
Getting the details right, and keeping everyone on the job engaged with them from start to finish.
“The test of a contractor is if I can sleep at night and I don’t have to worry about what they’re doing on site.”
Clients and their architects put real commitment into a house before we arrive. Our job is to match it.
Bring us in at design stage.
Working on a renovation, extension, alteration or commercial project? Send us the drawings. If it’s one we can take on, we’ll tell you what it costs and where it will challenge the budget, before pricing is fixed.
Planning a project?
Start with a conversation about your plans, priorities and the decisions worth getting right before you build.
