How To Tell If A Building Company Is Safe To Work With

If you are looking for a building company in Christchurch to deliver on the home build you want to the level of expertise that gives you peace of mind and the assurance of quality, then you need a building company that has the right credentials.

Let us take a look at two of the most important accreditations that your chosen home builder should have that will ensure that your home is built to the best standards.

Licensed Building Practitioner

A truly dependable building company will have Licensed Building Practitioners running the show. Licensed Building Practitioners have been assessed and certified by the New Zealand government as being capable and competent enough to fulfill their mandate of building structures and completing the essential work necessary for a weather-tight building that is suitable for human occupation.

A Licensed Building Practitioner is verified and vetted to be a working professional with a level of skill found to be sufficient to uphold New Zealand’s high standards of construction.


Having your building company be led by Licensed Building Practitioners will give you peace of mind knowing that they are registered and known entities who are capable of building safe structures that adhere to code.

Master Builders
​

The Master Builders Association is an organisation that verifies the quality, legitimacy, track record and ability of builders working in the construction industry. One of the major benefits of your builder being a registered Master Builder is that your building will then be covered by the Master Builder Guarantee.


The Master Builder Guarantee protects new homeowners against sub-par or faulty construction work or materials used, as well as poor practice or adherence to regulations. 


The Masterbuild Guarantee Extends for 10 years past the completion of the home. It covers a range of things, including complications arising from the builder not complying with the building contract or consent laws, not following the appropriate building trade practices and regulations, and defective workmanship and materials.
