Our Process

Careful Planning, Design and Construction

6 Step Process
Explore Renovate Me Nelson’s 6-step Process for Home Builds and Renovations, Ensuring Expert Planning, Design, and Construction for Exceptional Results.

It is Important That the Team you Choose for your Build has the Right Experience and Values. We Believe in Open and Transparent Communication so that you are always Kept in the Loop. We find this helps Everything run Smoothly.

Step 1: Initial contact

We will first ask you a few questions about the work you are looking for prior to setting up a meeting. That way we are up to speed when we have our site visit.

Step 2: In-home meeting

This where we will go in depth about the vision you have for your home. We will define what goals are important for you and your family. We will discuss your budget and timeframe. We will offer you honest and expert advice on how best to achieve this vision.

Step 3: Design

We will work with your chosen designers, or put you in contact with the right designers to bring your vision to reality. This process includes both concept and detailed construction plans. After we have confirmed the design we will start working on a price for you.

Step 4: Finalise paperwork

Once the contract and pricing is agreed we will then be able to sign off all the relevant paperwork and handover an action plan to you so you can stay up to date with the project. This will include start and finish times.

Step 5: All engines are go!

The project will then be underway. We will keep you informed about the progress on site so that you can rest easy and enjoy seeing your build come to life. We will manage all inspections, compliance requirements and address any issues promptly.

Step 6: Congratulations!

We will now walk you through your new home and make sure you are 100% happy with it. We know you will be impressed! We can now raise a glass and celebrate a job well done.

What our clients say

We chose James for the project based on the recommendation of a close friend. Being based in Queenstown, we really needed to have a builder on site that we trusted, as we would not be there all the time. The recommendation that came to us about James gave us confidence that we could trust him, and James has lived up to this reputation.

Fran and King Allen, Rocks Road
When we finished the project part of me wished we could start another project right away. I gather that’s not the way people generally feel at the end of a huge renovation. I chalk that up to James and Louise Laird and the team they’ve built at Renovate Me. If I ever move from my dream home and have to renovate another property I wouldn’t even get a bid from anyone else.

Cynthia Pratt, Atawhai
We asked several builders to give us an approach and informed estimate for a major renovation of our 1930’s cottage in The Wood, and as soon as James came to meet us he instilled a quiet confidence and came up with good ideas.

Roy and Gill Elgar
The job created some upheaval as it was our only toilet and bathroom and James did his best to minimise the inconvenience caused by this. The end product was excellent and we are delighted with our new facilities as they are of a high standard and have turned out exactly as we wanted.
