Words from our clients...
Designmax Homes did an amazing job building our house exactly as we had envisioned it. It was a great experience working with Lippy and his team, and we were very impressed and happy with the results, especially as Lippy's attitude toward any problems on site was very commendable, as he believed anything could be solved and is able to so do without involving clients. My family and I would like to thank the team for understanding our vision, being so professional and hard working. I have and will continue to recommend Designmax Homes to all my friends and family and anyone planning to build their dream home.

New Home (2018)
I couldn’t be happier with my new home. The whole process
was a breeze thanks to Lippy & the Designmax Homes team.
They kept me informed, nailed the details & delivered
a top-notch result. Despite the challenging section,
the design maximized the space perfectly. If you’re
looking to build, these guys are the way to go.

Working with Designmax was an amazing experience from start to finish. Craig, Nicky and the team demonstrated exceptional attention to detail, and a commitment to delivering the home we wanted for our family. The finished build exceeded our expectations in both design and craftsmanship, we love our new home. Highly recommend Designmax!

INew Home (2022)
When we sold our house and bought some land in Waiuku we didn’t really have a plan, just a vision of what could be. We talked to some big name build companies and quickly became frustrated with the standard floor plans that didn’t work on our site and specifications with no flexibility.
On the recommendations of a few locals we mad an appointment
with Designmax (I’d known Craig and Nicky for years, but didn’t
really know what they did).
From the moment we met Designmax everything was different.
It was now about OUR family, OUR lifestyle and OUR vision.
They took the time out to listen, to understand, to advise and
at times give us honest answers or debate the best outcome.
What we got was a completely unique design with our choice of everything. For us building across 3 lock downs, working full-time
and having 2 pre-schoolers presented some challenges.
The Designmax team couldn’t have been more professional
and genuine. Designmax went above and beyond for us again and again. I was made to feel like part of the team every step of the way.
Now having lived in our new home for several months, it’s better than we ever dreamed. People often ask if I would change anything.
Honestly no!
I believe working with Lippy and the Designmax team meant we got things right the first time.
I am so grateful & couldn’t recommend Designmax highly enough.

New Home Build (2021)
We used Designmax Homes to draw up the plans for our house build. Pretty much straight away I felt at complete ease with them. They listened to what we wanted and put in the extra effort when it came to a couple of sticking points with Council.
From visiting the house site to making sure we were 100% happy with the plans before going into Council. Highly recommend if you are planning a new house build. Absolute pleasure to work with.

Plans Only (2015)

An afternoon meeting with Craig at our build-site to discuss plans for our new home made us realise we had made the right choice to use Designmax Homes. It was obvious from the beginning of the project that Craig and his team had our best interests at heart. There are loads of reasons why we would highly recommend Designmax Homes, but for us it was the level of service we still received after we moved in. Craig and his team of tradies didn't hesitate to come back and make adjustments so everything was perfect, this is a level of service that proved Designmax Homes had our best interests at heart long after the project was finished. 100% happy.

The Teague Family, Waiuku
New Home (2019)

We had a fantastic experience working with the team at Designmax -Craig, Nicky, John and the rest of the building team. From the very beginning, communication was clear, consistent, and honest. They took our design ideas and not only made them work—they made them better, creating a home that is both functional and stylish.
Their attention to detail was evident in every stage of the build, and their practical approach ensured everything stayed on track without compromising on quality. They were easy to deal with throughout the process—always approachable, responsive, and transparent.
We couldn’t be happier with the end result and highly recommend them to anyone looking to build a high-quality, thoughtfully designed home.
