"I live in the UK and needed to find a builder urgently to address what I thought would be a small building job as part of a wider roofing project. Quite quickly, it became clear that the builder was going to play a critical role in sorting my problems out and that I would need to find someone who could get up to speed very quickly, who could communicate with me over text, email and mobile, who could be my eyes and ears on the ground, who could interpret my "risk profile" and work… accordingly, and most importantly of all, who I could trust. Ryan and his team ticked all of these boxes. They worked in well with all of my other contractors and went above and beyond to help me. Given that I wasn't even in the country, let alone on site, my job would definitely have presented some challenges to Ryan. I never knew it, of course, because he is the consummate professional. I couldn't recommend Ryan enough. If you're nervous about finding someone with a lot of credibility, this is the guy."

"Ryan was very professional, honest and communicated well. He was good at suggesting things to fix and provided reasonable and accurate quotes for his services. The work was completed ahead of time and to a very high standard. We would definitely recommend his company and will use them again in future."

"It's very difficult to get a good builder for smaller jobs and we were very lucky to have Ryan recommended to us and thankful he had a few days spare at the time. His workmanship is excellant and both Ryan and Drew were always courteous and kept their work area as clean and tidy as they could. We will definitely use Live It Construction again."

"Ryan and his team are a pleasure to work with. We had been burned by previous builders and were very wary going into our next renovation project, but Ryan made a fantastic impression right from our first meeting. He turned up on time, was knowledgeable, kept us up to date and was incredibly thorough in his work. Ryan brought vision to the project and was able to create a brilliantly finished solution with pretty much no available blueprints. He and his team were courteous and worked hard to… produce an outstanding deck and outdoor area for us from scratch. Also working from plans he produced a high quality finish bathroom and rumpus area. We were so impressed we’ve got Ryan back again this year to build a second deck area and are looking forward to the same results. It’s a load off our minds to know we have found someone we can trust, thanks guys."

"Contacted Ryan to replace the deck as he has done previous work for me and he has checked out the job, done the quote and finished the job to a very high standard. All communication was done via email as I live out of Auckland and was unable to be at the house to explain what was needed."

"Ryan and his team did a remedial job on our balcony after the membrane had leaked because of a faulty joint. They did an absolutely fantastic job and there was a great deal of complexity with the finishing work. We are very happy with the results and everything has been done on time and within the estimated budget. "

"I had some pretty firm (and it has to be said, different) ideas about a total renovation of our large bathroom. We asked Ryan to handle the job. He was fantastic. He is super-fussy about good workmanship, and getting the mechanics of waterproofing etc just right. But the best part was he brings a little team of great sub-contractors with him, and when they were needed they jumped into action. Where in Auckland does that ever happen??!! We had NO holdups waiting for tradies to turn up at all -… plumber, eletrician, tiler and glass company all available when he wanted them. Ryan was in constant communication, was able to offer practical compromises to save money while completing the renovation in line with what I'd imagined. He's more than a builder, he's a project manager who doesn't try and push his own ideas on you. Ideal. Our bathroom is fabulous and we are very happy with it."

"Ryan is a fantastic builder. I called him in my hour of need - flooded kitchen floor and he was an answer to my prayers - affordable but superlative workmanship. His suggestions were on the money. He and his team are very professional. They arrive on time and leave the place immaculate. He uses good quality materials. I was so impressed by his job on the kitchen floor that I hired him to complete another project - a staircase with a covered landing. He is not a man of many words, but his… talent and skill speak for themselves. I would highly recommend him."

"Three weeks before Christmas and we needed alterations to our bathroom - URGENTLY! Our old papa (83) has recently had a leg amputated and we realised he could not access the bathroom on his wheelchair.
I must have rung a dozen builders - all too busy. Somehow I stumbled on Ryan's dad (also a builder) and he said he would come and have a look and maybe his son could help. 7am the next morning I get a call from Ryan who had been rained off a job. We decided a wall needed to come out and… doors be changed around. Ryan and Keith started work immediately. A few days later we had papa home for a few hours and found out he could not turn his chair at the correct angle to make it through the door! I made an SOS call to Ryan and for the last 3 days he and Keith have been again changing the area to accommodate our needs. It has not been an easy straightforward job - but Ryan has made it as stress free as possible.

Ryan is an exceptionally polite, respectful, decent man who takes pride in his work. He has at all times behaved in a professional manner.

I am so thankful to Ryan and Keith for helping us out at this busy time of year and making an old mans wish to come home possible."

"Ryan and his apprentice have done a great job rebuilding our front deck. It wasn't a straight forward deck replacement, the deck been a s1950s bungalow porch with two poles supporting the roof.
I would recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a builder who is reliable and takes great pride in their work. He is the first person I will call next time I need a builder."

Ryan and his team, were punctual, very professional and cost efficient. It was a small area that needed to be reinforced, but everything was done precisely and accurately.
We are a small retail business, so we required, the work to be done, effortlessly to avoid any loss of business.
5 star service, quality and professionalism.
Thank you
