Testimonials

Testimonials

Totara Construction absolutely exceeded our expectations.  From the moment we started working with Matt, he made the building process a breeze. Throughout the build it was clear that Matt, Grace and their team had a wealth of knowledge, experience, professionalism and expertise. Matt was easy to communicate with and took the time to explain the process to us.  Matt and his team worked exceptionally hard and to a tight timeframe, with no compromise on quality. We were absolutely blown away by the final product.  I could not recommend Totara Construction more highly. Quality, professional and reliable!

Aishleen Sidhu 

Our home means more to us than a place of shelter. It tells a story of our whakapapa, history & connection to the land & sea. We needed a construction company that would treat our project with sensitivity & meticulous care. Totara Construction Ltd exceeded our expectations. They have been a wonderful company to work with. A good working relationship was easily & readily established, communication was always open and clear. The quality of master craftsmanship and initiative portrayed throughout the project was outstanding. They went over and above in providing an excellent service. Our architecturally designed home was quite technical and every challenge was met with enthusiasm and creative problem solving skills. We would highly recommend Totara Construction Ltd to build your next home.
