STORIES FROM OUR FAMILY OF CLIENTS
Building More Than Homes - We Build Lasting Relationships
See how we've earned the trust of Cambridge, Waipa, and Hamilton families through quality work and genuine care.
Our Building Legacy:
A Tradition of Excellence
Grant Family Homes was born from years of experience and proven principles that create lasting client relationships. After the retirement of Cameron's long-time employer, we established our company on the same values that made those partnerships so successful—putting quality craftsmanship and genuine care at the heart of everything we build.
What We Build Together
From dream homes to essential repairs, we bring the same commitment to quality and relationships to every project. Our comprehensive building services are designed around your needs, delivered with honest guidance and the craftsmanship your vision deserves.
New Home Construction
We work seamlessly from architectural plans to build custom new homes that reflect your vision. Our passion lies in the details—every joint, finish, and fixture is crafted with precision and care. We're committed to honouring the architect's intent while ensuring your new home becomes a lasting legacy for your family.
Commercial Shop Fit-Outs
Whether you need carpentry-only services or a full contract solution, we bring expertise to your shop fit-out or renovation. We know the challenges of main-street projects, from tight timelines to working within occupied spaces. Our experience ensures your business has minimal disruption, so you can focus on what you do best.
Home Extensions & Additions
Adding to your existing home requires sensitivity to both its character and your family's daily life. We approach every extension with deep respect for your personal space and privacy. We carefully plan and build your new space to feel like it was always part of your home.
Home Renovations
From refreshing tired spaces to complete transformations, we handle renovation projects of every scale. Whether you're updating for visual appeal or working with detailed architectural plans, we bring the same craftsmanship and attention to detail that defines all our work. Your renovation vision becomes our shared mission.
Recladding
Transform your home's exterior and protection with modern, high-quality cladding systems that replace dated or failing materials. We carefully assess your home's requirements and recommend cladding solutions that enhance both appearance and performance to ensure lasting value and peace of mind.
Joinery Replacement
Upgrade your home's comfort and efficiency with new joinery and double-glazed windows. We handle the complete installation, ensuring finishes that enhance your home's warmth, security, and value. Every window and door is installed with the same attention to detail we bring to major builds.
Full Roofing or Repairs
When your roof needs replacing, our expertise becomes your greatest advantage. We replace old or leaking metal roofing with quality Coloursteel or Zincalume, but our real strength lies in addressing any underlying framing or structural issues we discover. This complete approach ensures your new roof performs well for decades.
Decks & Pergolas
Create beautiful outdoor living spaces with custom-built decks and pergolas designed for your lifestyle. We craft structures that seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living, from covered entertaining to open sun-soaked spaces. Every deck and pergola withstands New Zealand conditions while enhancing your home's appeal.
Fences
Establish clear, attractive boundaries with new or replacement fencing that complements your property's character. From design to final installation, we handle every aspect of your fencing project with the same commitment to quality and client care that defines all our services.

Questions?
We're Here to Help
Building trust starts with honest answers. We believe in transparency from the very first conversation, so here are the questions we're asked most often—answered with the same straightforward approach we bring to every project.
How do you provide quotes for residential construction and renovation projects?
Every new home build, extension, or renovation project is unique, so we provide detailed, transparent quotes based on thorough consultation and property assessment. As Licensed Building Practitioners, we'll visit your Cambridge or Waikato property, discuss your architectural plans or renovation ideas, and provide honest guidance about construction costs, building consent requirements, and project timelines. Our quotes include all foreseeable work, and we communicate openly if circumstances change during your build.
What areas do you service for home building and renovations?
We service Cambridge, Hamilton, Te Awamutu, and the broader Waipa region as residential builders and renovation specialists. Our focused service area within 30 minutes of Cambridge allows us to maintain close relationships with local clients and provide the personal attention every new build, home extension, or commercial fit-out deserves.
Are you Licensed Building Practitioners with full insurance?
Absolutely. Cameron is a Licensed Building Practitioner (LBP) with trade qualifications, and we carry comprehensive insurance coverage for all residential construction, renovation, and commercial building work. We believe in doing building work properly and legally—it's part of putting your best interests first and ensuring complete peace of mind throughout your new home construction or renovation project.
How long does a typical home building or renovation project take?
Construction timelines vary depending on whether it's a new custom home, home extension, kitchen renovation, bathroom renovation, or re-cladding project. During our initial consultation, we'll provide realistic timeframes based on your specific building requirements and any building consent processes. We prioritise quality craftsmanship over speed while respecting your schedule.
Do you handle building consents and permits for construction projects?
Yes, we can guide you through the building consent process or handle council applications entirely, whether it's for new home construction, major renovations, re-cladding work, or commercial shop fit-outs. Our experience with local building regulations and consent requirements helps streamline approvals for your residential or commercial building project.
What happens if you discover structural issues during renovations or re-roofing?
We communicate immediately about any unexpected structural problems, framing issues, or weathertightness concerns we encounter during home renovations, roof replacements, or re-cladding projects. Our comprehensive building expertise often allows us to address structural repairs, timber framing issues, or roofing problems in-house rather than bringing in additional contractors.
How do you manage renovations and extensions in occupied homes?
We treat your family home with utmost respect during kitchen renovations, bathroom renovations, home extensions, or any residential construction work. This means clear daily schedules, thorough cleanup, dust protection, and minimising disruption to your family life. Your privacy and comfort are paramount during any home improvement project.
What sets you apart from other Cambridge builders and renovation contractors?
Our relationship-first approach means we provide honest building advice about construction options, material choices, and costs—even when it's not in our immediate interest. We're passionate about quality home construction, architectural detail, and craftsmanship that lasts. Our comprehensive expertise spans new home builds, major renovations, re-cladding, re-roofing, joinery replacement, and commercial fit-outs.
Do you offer building warranties on construction and renovation work?
Yes, all our residential construction, renovation work, and commercial building projects come with appropriate warranties. We stand behind our building craftsmanship, roofing installations, cladding work, and joinery long after project completion. Quality construction and renovation work is our standard—your trust is worth more than any single building contract.
How should I prepare for our initial building consultation?
Come with your home building ideas, renovation inspiration photos, architectural plans (if available), and any construction questions. We'll discuss your new home vision, renovation goals, or commercial building needs, assess your property, and provide honest guidance about project feasibility, building costs, consent requirements, and construction timelines. There's no pressure—our goal is determining if we're the right Cambridge builders for your project.
