80 | BUILDING DW Homes - 20th Anniversary T T Ange Davidson Unwavering commitment to quality Celebrating a remarkable two decades in the building industry, DW Homes has excelled in crafting top-quality residences throughout Auckland and Northern Waikato. Established in 2004, this esteemed home-building company has grown to become Franklin’s longest-running volume home builder, successfully completing over 800 homes from Auckland to Waikato. In an industry where franchises often dominate, DW Homes takes pride in maintaining its independent status. This autonomy allows the company to uphold its unwavering commitment to quality, refusing to compromise on standards. Emma Walworth, Marketing and Sales Manager, emphasises that they are not the cheapest building company as they don’t do things by halves and don’t cut corners. “That’s what sets us apart. We’re renowned for quality and using the best materials and products in the market.” DW Homes serves a diverse clientele, including second or third home buyers, those seeking bespoke design and build services, and individuals transitioning to retirement, looking to downsize from larger lifestyle properties and create a new forever home. The company offers various options ranging from Turnkey homes they’ve designed and built and constructing homes based on a client’s own architecturally designed plans, to providing a complete design and build service with their in-house architectural team. Recognising the uniqueness of each client’s vision, DW Homes collaborates with customers who have their own sections to create personalized plans aligning with their lifestyle and budget. “We understand that there isn’t a one-sizefits-all when it comes to building your dream home,” acknowledges Emma. Over the two decades, DW Homes has garnered numerous awards and accolades, establishing itself as one of the region’s most awarded Registered Master Builders across multiple design and build categories. Their homes boast a timeless aesthetic and wellthought-out floor plans, making them easily recognizable as DW Homes in the Franklin region. Covid prompted a strategic shift for the company, transitioning from a commercial building in Pukekohe to showcase homes as their primary display. The gold award-winning show home in Pōkeno, near the Bombay Hills, was a savvy move, followed by another in Patumahoe, a picturesque village in South Auckland. The show home at 1 Trevor McMiken Drive in Patumahoe exemplifies DW Homes’ dedication to classic and functional family homes. Catering to couples, families, and older generations, it showcases the latest fixtures and fittings, high-end design, and all elements that define a DW Home as a superior build. Situated on the edge of farmland, the Patumahoe Hill development offers semi-rural sites with the charm of a small village, just 15 minutes from the motorway and 10 minutes from Pukekohe. DW Homes maintains a deep connection to the Franklin community, sponsoring various local clubs in Waiuku, where the company was established. Their support extends to the rugby club, netball club, and the local volunteer fire brigade’s annual poker run fundraiser. “We’re committed to building houses that we would want in their neighborhood and supporting the community in the process. We are very loyal to our community and use only local contractors, ensuring consistency and a high standard across all our builds,” acknowledges Emma. And customers are loyal to them, and in the past six months, DW Homes have had five previous clients return for another building project. DW Homes stands out not only for its two-decade legacy of crafting exceptional homes but also for being an independent, non-franchise building company. This distinction holds significant weight, as it ensures that when you choose to build with DW Homes, you are genuinely partnering with DW Homes and not someone merely trading under a bigger brand name, ensuring a direct and personalised experience for clients.
