new
addition
We worked in partnership with the client and designer to open up and connect the house with the surrounding landscape and environment.
The large living space incorporated a number of energy efficient features, including foundation and slab design, insulation, low-E double glazing to the exterior joinery, and passive heat transfer through a ventilation system from the new fireplace to the rest of the house.
The swimming pool was incorporated into the design scheme with wrap-around hardwood decks and frameless glass balustrading.
Testimonials
Jesse and Matt were engaged to carry out an addition on a house we recently purchased. They took on project managing the entire design scheme including a new swimming pool and large area of decking and planting. Their organisation of trades and high expectation of finishes delivered an exceptional product within budget and a timely manner.

FULL
RENOVATION
Starting with a clean slate, this town house was a full renovation. We designed, built and landscaped both the inside and outside of the property.
Working with a small section, we maximised the 90m2 section to create a sense of space and tranquility, offering calm amongst the chaos of Ponsonby.
Testimonial
“I approached Astute Build because I had heard of their reliability and attention to detail. After receiving a detailed, written quote for the job, Matt, Jess and their team started on time, dealt with unforeseen pitfalls and finished at the estimated time. Throughout the build I was kept informed of activity on site with regular progress reports and their reputation proved accurate. One thing that I particularly liked was being consulted and involved with decision making throughout the project. I was impressed with the quality of their workmanship, and I found that Matt and Jess made renovating - a relatively stressful experience for me, less stressful. I will use them in the future and I would recommend them to others who want their job well done.”
