| 105 T T Anne Boswell Crafting coastal elegance Mount Maunganui’s Beachside Builders renowned for its attention to detail and innovative designs that embody the coastal lifestyle. Beachside Builders “The reason we go so well together is that I love the business side of the industry, while Dad is very much traditionally hands-on.” BUILDING In the ever-evolving market for executive-family homes and high-end architectural builds, Beachside Builders has established itself as an eminent name in the Bay of Plenty. Based in Mount Maunganui, this family-owned business has been setting standards in the region for over two decades, renowned for their attention to detail and innovative designs that embody the coastal lifestyle. The company’s heartbeat is the father-andson team of Warwick and Corey Aitken, whose combined talents and strong community roots have cemented Beachside Builders as a trusted name in the industry. Corey, whose passion for business drives the company forward, works seamlessly with Warwick, whose engineering background adds a layer of technical sophistication to each project. Beachside Builders is known for transforming the coastal living experience by merging sophisticated architectural design with the natural beauty of the shore. Their portfolio is a testament to their expertise, showcasing a range of custom homes and renovations that reflect the diverse tastes and lifestyles of their clients. One of their most celebrated builds, Karewa House in Papamoa, designed by Herbst Architects, won a Gold Award in the 2020 Master Builders Home of the Year. However, the Aitkens continue to push boundaries, collaborating with architects like Adam Taylor more than once to bring unique designs to life. “Adam likes unique designs; he is very clever, and it’s fun working alongside him,” Corey says. The synergy between Warwick and Corey is the driving force behind Beachside Builders’ success. Warwick’s mechanical mind was honed during his time as head mechanic for Mario Andretti’s Newman/Haas race team, and is drawn to high-end architecture’s structural complexity. Corey complements this with his passion for the business side of the industry, having joined his father on-site from a young age and now steering the company’s innovative vision. “The reason we go so well together is that I love the business side of the industry, while Dad is very much traditionally hands-on,” Corey explains. “We like a challenge. We like using new products and finding new ways to build; it keeps things fresh for us and for our employees.” While the building industry presents its share of challenges, from fierce competition to the complexities of the construction process, Beachside Builders navigates these with a forward-thinking approach. “The process of building a home can take a long time, and it can be hard to keep the momentum going,” Corey says. “Most people only build their dream house once, and if they don’t enjoy it the first time they certainly won’t do it again.” Beachside Builders fosters a vibrant work culture, ensuring the team is well-placed to deliver projects that reflect the company’s passion. “Our projects are driven by our committed staff, and we are lucky to have them,” Corey says. “We are so appreciative of the boys who grind it out every day.” Beachside Builders ensures that every client’s journey to their dream home is as seamless and enjoyable as possible. Their ethos of precision, creativity and client satisfaction continues to set them apart in the realm of high-end architectural building.
