| 99 Homes by Orange Custom design and build homes are the company’s focus. It also offers a range of plans for inspiration. “Our systems, processes and skilled team are all focused on making things easy for our clients and we are by their side throughout the whole build.” T T to page 100 BUILDING New build market a focus T T Karen Phelps Renovate Me Nelson Renovate Me, a well-known company based in Nelson, is making strategic moves to expand its presence in the new build market with its new brand, Build Me. While the company has been actively involved in building new homes for many years, it has been primarily associated with renovation projects. James Laird, the owner of Renovate Me, explains that the team’s diverse skills, honed through numerous renovation and new build projects over the years, position them to take on a wide variety of architectural new builds for clients. “The same quality-driven results and client-focused approach will remain the priority,” he says. Demonstrating the high level of skill within the team, one of Renovate Me’s apprentices, Tim Parkinson, received the prestigious title of the 2023 Cook Strait Registered Master Builders Carters Apprentice of the Year. “We’ve had a few adult apprentices such as Tim, and we find they are very committed and motivated. This award is great recognition for Tim, who is an outstanding apprentice,” says James. Currently employing three apprentices, Renovate Me places a strong emphasis on training new talent: “We enjoy taking apprentices on so we can train them in how we like to do things. “It’s also a key part of the success of the building industry for companies like ours to train apprentices to come into the industry,” says James noting that someone gave him a chance to become an apprentice years ago and now it’s time to give back to the industry that has given him so much. Renovate Me’s expertise extends to all types of renovation work, including restorations, extensions, and alterations, with a focus on optimizing space to complement the existing design. Build Me specialises in building premium homes in Nelson. Beyond custom designs, Homes by Orange is making its mark with spec homes, offering an opportunity for families to step into a brand-new build, with two options currently available in the coastal village of Mapua. Located at 15 Wakanini Place, the classic board and batten cladding with contrasting brick features give the home a modern contemporary feel. The home has a completion date of early 2024 when the company will commence another spec home at 30 Wakanini Place. In addition to custom designs and spec homes, Homes by Orange offers a variety of house and land packages in the region. Once again Homes by Orange offers clients a high degree of flexibility to make changes and Liv says packages are custom designed to suit the site and client needs. For those looking to breathe new life into existing structures, the company also specializes in renovations, providing a comprehensive suite of services to meet diverse needs in the Nelson-Tasman region.
