114 | Bringing expertise, innovation At 275sqm, with four bedrooms and office, this relatively straightforward build on a level site included the standout feature of a parapet wall, designed to add a stylish twist to the home BUILDING Breckon Builders T T Kelly Deeks Employing a service-focused team of expert builders, local family-owned construction business Breckon Builders of Whangārei brings expertise and innovation to every project – be it a new home, renovation, or extension. With its high standards of carpentry and project management, Breckon Builders is a trusted partner that brings clients’ visions to life. Owner Sean Breckon followed in his father’s footsteps, starting his carpentry apprenticeship straight out of school. Having grown up watching his dad working as a joiner, constructing custom-built kitchens and creating fixed interior furniture for super yachts, he was exposed to the very high standards of expertise and precise workmanship required by the fine interiors industry. “That’s the benchmark I’m used to, and that’s what I’ve stuck to,” Sean says. “I treat every one of our projects as if it were my own house, applying the highest-possible standards and producing work I can be proud to put my name to.” In Maungatapere, Breckon Builders was proud to take on the construction of a spacious family home. This recently completed residence really demonstrates the team’s ability to deliver high-quality construction, while incorporating unique design elements that enhance the overall appeal of the home. At 275sqm, with four bedrooms and office, this relatively straightforward build on a level site included the standout feature of a parapet wall, designed to add a stylish twist to the home. This custom-built parapet was integrated from the ground up, forming part of the interior wall and extending through the roof at the rear of the house. “This feature added a distinctive architectural element, creating a focal point that set the home apart from more conventional designs,” Sean says. “It was fun figuring out how to add it in, as it provided a creative challenge that wasn’t integral to the structure, but offered something unique and different for the client.” The exterior of the home is a stunning mix of materials, with large bricks cladding part of the structure, while the rest is clad in Taxon timber. The combination of these materials and its Colorsteel roofing provides a thoughtful blend of textures and colours, making the home both visually striking and durable, while fitting in perfectly with the surrounding Maungatapere landscape. Completed within six months, this project showcases the craftsmanship and attention to detail that Breckon Builders brings to every project. “This home is all about quality,” Sean says. “With two horizontal pavilions crossing one vertical pavilion, there were a lot of corners to make square.” By incorporating design features like the parapet, Breckon Builders continues to demonstrate its creativity and commitment to building homes that reflect the personal tastes and preferences of its clients. Breckon Builders takes great pride in its ability to customise homes to suit clients’ needs and preferences, and this project is a perfect example of how the Breckon Builders team can blend functionality with style, ensuring the home is not only practical, but also tailored to the client’s vision. 021 172 3226 anton@completelydrained.co.nz www.completelydrained.co.nz Proudly supporting Breckon Builders Ltd WHANGĀREI’S DRAINAGE SOLUTION SPECIALISTS RESIDENTIAL DRAINAGE DRAIN UNBLOCKING CCTV & INVESTIGATION SEPTIC TANK & TREATMENT SYSTEM INSTALLATION Team up with your local experts in drainlaying and drain-unblocking projects, today.
