Paul Troake Construction Limited
Building Contractors in Torbay

"Our 28 year old plaster clad house needed a reclad and we decided to do a full renovation at the same time - roof, double glazing of windows, kitchen, bathrooms, decks, floor tiles etc. We engaged Paul at the planning phase, and he recommended relevant businesses e.g. architect, kitchen design etc to help us through the process.

Paul project managed the team, and all the subcontractors and suppliers. We were very happy with everyone who worked on the project, and with the quality of the end result. If we had to do another project of this nature, Paul would be the first person we would contact.

We are now enjoying living in what feels like a brand new house, and expect to live here for many more years."

"We engaged Paul Troake Construction to carry out essential work for a kitchen / laundry replacement in our 80-year-old bungalow. It has been about 50 years since the existing fittings and appliances had been installed in the 70’s and they were worn out or no longer functioned.
Unexpected repairs only became apparent after the removal of existing fittings were taken out, but Laurie and Andy took up the challenge and very sympathetic restoration work was completed to a high standard.
During the period of the work, there were interruptions on site due to electricity supply undergrounding which prevented access for periods, obliging the builders to work around this. However, work was completed in time for installation of the cabinetry and new appliances.
Paul liaised with the designer at Kitchens by Design, the cabinetmaker from Kitchen Link and the electrical and plumbing contractors, and the standard of finish was first class by all those involved in the work.
We would be happy to engage Paul Troake Construction for any future projects and can highly recommend them."

"After extensive research into potential designers to help us create the kitchen of our dreams, as well as a laundry, we decided to go with Kitchens By Design (KBD) in Byron Avenue, Takapuna. We are so pleased we did as we now have a kitchen that is beyond our wildest dreams, from both an aesthetic and functional perspective. We absolutely love it! We also have a fantastic laundry that cleverly maximises the limited space.

We thoroughly recommend KBD and in particular would like to acknowledge designer Marianne Gailer, who did superb work done on our behalf, KBD Owner Richard Cripps - including for the stunning cabinetry - and Vernon for the meticulous installation.

We also recommend Paul Thomas and his fantastic team at Architectural Stone, who sourced for us and installed with precision the beautiful natural stone for our kitchen island and splashback.

Paul Troake Construction’s team of builders also did great work for us.

We couldn’t be happier with the result!"

I am absolutely delighted with their workmanship and the look of the deck. It has been greatly admired by all my visitors too.
Paul was a great communicator and showed the utmost professionalism as well as admirable patience as I changed my mind a few times during the building project.
I valued the excellent advice Paul gave as the project took unexpected twists and turns as the dreadful condition of the existing deck was revealed.
The builders were punctual, hard-working and pleasant company too. It was obvious that they took great pride in their work and rightly so as they exhibited excellent craftsmanship.
I spend as much time as possible on my new deck now and cannot thank Paul and his builders enough for their wonderful work!!

In 2011 we made major renovations to the exterior including a full cedar recladding, installing pink batts, new double glazed windows and ranchslider doors.

"There was a slight delay at the start but it was on account of the wet weather. Paul had an excellent team on the job. There was no mucking around they just went for it.
Made a beautiful job. Would recommend them to anyone else thinking about an alteration or repair or building a new house."
