NEW ZEALAND CERTIFIED BUILDERS ASSN

New Zealand Certified Builders is a membership organisation set up by a group of trade qualified builders in 1998. These builders, led by Tauranga’s Craig Wilkinson, wanted to create a group that would protect homeowners from unqualified builders and unethical practices and promote excellence in building standards. An industry leader, NZCB has an extensive membership of builders throughout New Zealand proudly carrying the NZCB stamp of approval. Each builder is trade qualified with a strong history of stability and success. Not only are homeowners guaranteed first-class knowledge and expertise when working with an NZCB approved builder, each home is covered by New Zealand’s Halo 10 year residential guarantee for peace of mind throughout the building journey. If you’re a New Zealand builder who’s passionate about providing superior workmanship and meets the NZCB membership criteria, welcome aboard. The first requirement is to hold a recognised trade qualification equivalent to or better than National Trade Certificate in Carpentry Level 4.

To ensure our high standards are maintained, we also take into account a builder’s history of stability and success, continued solvency, absence of complaints by customers and suppliers, a good untarnished reputation and brand, and consistently high standards.

Waterproofing Membrane Association

Most waterproof membrane systems are currently outside the scope of any of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment’s (MBIE, previously the Department of Building and Housing) Acceptable Solutions to the New Zealand Building Code, and can only be considered as an Alternative Solution for the purposes of any building consent application, with the exception of pre-formed rubber and EPDM membranes which are included within the Ministrys Acceptable Solutions.

As there are no Standards or accepted industry-wide documents in use in New Zealand, the WMAI are developing a suite of Codes for waterproofing membranes which will set the minimum WMAI-agreed benchmark requirements for an Alternative Solution. These Codes will also set recommended training criteria and installation methodology for the industry.

The Tile Depot

The Tile Depot is a family business established in 1995. We now comprise 14 retail outlets from Whangarei to Queenstown and we are New Zealand’s only Consumer trusted tile retailer. Our growth over the past decade has given us the size and scale to focus on the trade with a huge range of product, key brands and the ability to import price competitive items ourselves. Tilers are the backbone of our business and we are proud of the many relationships we have built throughout our network.
