Our Process

  • We begin with a detailed consultation to understand your goals, budget, and design preferences. A site visit allows us to assess the existing structure, potential challenges, and opportunities for enhancement.

  • Working alongside architects and designers, we refine your renovation or extension plans to ensure structural feasibility, compliance, and alignment with your lifestyle needs. This phase includes selecting materials, finishes, and integrating modern solutions while preserving architectural character where needed.

  • We provide a transparent, itemised quote based on the agreed scope, ensuring you have a clear understanding of costs. Our team works with trusted suppliers and subcontractors to maintain quality while organising your budget.

  • If your renovation requires consent, we handle the submission process, ensuring your project meets local regulations and building codes.

  • Once approvals are secured, we begin construction. Our team carefully manages each stage, whether it's structural modifications, re-cladding, kitchen and bathroom upgrades, or full-scale extensions. We prioritise minimal disruption while maintaining efficiency and attention to detail.

  • As the project nears completion, we conduct rigorous quality checks to ensure every detail meets our high standards. Final adjustments are made to guarantee a flawless finish.

  • We walk you through the completed renovation, ensuring everything meets your expectations. Our team remains available for any post-project support, ensuring your home remains as functional and beautiful as intended.

  • "Last year I engaged the services of Ze Build to renovate my home in Manly. After many meetings with Dylan to discuss costings, work and timeframe, they started right on time and launched into what would become a 6 month job. Throughout this period I was kept up to date with progress, answered any queries I had in a way I could understand and solved all problems promptly, all done I would come to realise, with their characteristic ease, calm and consummate professionalism. Nothing was hard and anything was possible. I had the pleasure of interacting with Ze Build builders Logan, Ryan and team, project manager Jarrod at the start and the exemplary project manager Leesin for the last part of the renovation. Ze Plumb and Gas Anthony and his team. Ze Spark Seth and his team. Along the way as would be expected issues arose, but they were all dealt with well, especially as I was out of the country and essentially AWOL for quite some time. I did not worry while gone. I came to rely on their expertise and service, nothing was a problem. Now that the renovation is complete, I am thrilled with the work done. It pleases me greatly to live in my home renovation that Ze built. I have called on them since to hang art for a fussy home owner and lift and plant a big nikau palm, so I still have work to do ….. It is never finished and Ze Build of course are up for it. I can’t applaud them loudly enough and should I ever do another renovation or build, they will be the first people I call, without hesitation. I have loved working with the entire team."

  • “We have been working with Ze Build on a regular basis, they have completed several works for us. We are extremely pleased with the quality of work and professionalism demonstrated by Ze Build throughout both projects. For our Lawrence Street property, Ze Build added an extension to our existing house. The house was prepared and then moved the house to Taupo Bay where they renovated the existing dwelling and added a new addition to the property. Throughout the entire process, Ze Build demonstrated a strong attention to detail, excellent communication skills, and a willingness to go above and beyond to ensure that we were completely satisfied with the final result. They also completely landscaped the property, which has significantly enhanced its visual appeal, and added a driveway turntable which has made access to the property much more convenient.”
